India.Arie - What If (Weekly Music Roundup) 

The multiple Grammy winning neo-soul singer India.Arie is back. Equality, empowerment, and spirituality have all been subjects of her past records. Her new single, “What If,” begins with the memorable lines, “what if Martin didn’t stand up/what if Rosa didn’t sit down.” The song comes from India.Arie’s forthcoming album, whose title can be read as a statement, or a question, or a challenge.  It’s called Worthy and it's due out in March.  

"What If," by India.Arie is part of an especially wide-ranging edition of our Weekly Music Roundup.
