This is Kanye West and the Sunday Choir performing “Selah”. This is a word that appears in the Psalms section of the Bible, and its meaning is not openly agreed on, but it means something along the lines of ‘pause and reflect. Kanye uses it to reflect and worship through song. I picked this song because I felt like it was a good example of a modern-day spiritual and uses things like call-and-response, intoning, and repetition. I also have listened to Kanye West for years, so hearing his voice gave me familiarity. Having him guide the singing makes it more interesting to me.
