  A new CEO with a background in movies will try to bring the label out of its funk.

The article from Fortune discusses the legacy of Motown Records, focusing on its founder Berry Gordy Jr., and the contributions of George Jackson, a key figure in the label's success. Motown, known for its iconic hits and for breaking racial barriers in the music industry, was not just about music but also about creating a cultural phenomenon that influenced American pop culture. George Jackson, who passed away in 2013, was instrumental in shaping Motown's sound through his work as a songwriter and producer. His efforts helped in crafting the Motown sound that became synonymous with soul music, featuring artists like Stevie Wonder, The Supremes, and Marvin Gaye. The piece highlights how Motown's music transcended racial divides, promoting integration and civil rights through its universal appeal, and how Jackson's behind-the-scenes work was pivotal in this cultural integration.
