뮤지크 소울차일드(Musiq Soulchild)를 직접 만난 적이 있다. 자랑이다. 태양, 세븐, 박재범, 션 킹스턴(Sean Kingston) 등이 참여했던 ‘서울 소울 페스티벌’(2010.10.9-10, 전쟁기념관)에 이 알앤비/소울 싱어 역시 무대에 올랐고, 나는 공연이 시작하기 전 그와 인터뷰를 할 수 있었다. 눈을 부릅뜨고 인터뷰 시간을 시계로 재고 있던 매니저와는 달리 그는 시종일관 친절하고 진지했다. 그는 예전부터 한국에 와보고 싶었다고 했다. ‘소울’(서울)이라고 불리는 도시가 있다는 걸 알고 있었기 때문이라고 했다. 그리고 이 멘트는 인터뷰의 다른 어떤 음악적인 이야기보다도 내 머리 속에 강렬하게 남아 있다.
그의 이름에 대해 먼저 이야기하자면, 그 유래가 제법 재미있다. 뮤지크 소울차일드는 말한다. “사람들은 나에 대해 알고 있다고 생각하지만 그들은 진짜 나에 대해서는 알지 못해. 음악하는 녀석 정도로 알고 있을 뿐이지. 음악하는 녀석이라는 말을 계속 들으니까, 차라리 나를 아예 음악이라고 불러줬으면 하는 생각이 들더군. 그렇게 하면 사람들이 나를 봤을 때 자연스럽게 음악에 대해 떠올릴 수 있으니까 더 좋기도 했지.” 그리고 그는 이름 뒤에 소울차일드를 붙였다. 자신에게 영향을 주었던 선배 소울 뮤지션들의 음악을 계승하겠다는 의지의 표현이었다. 다시 말해 음악적으로 그들의 ‘자식’이라는 것이었다.
뮤지크 소울차일드는 필라델피아에서 9남매 중 첫째로 태어났다. 대부분의 뮤지션이 그렇듯 색소폰을 불었던 아버지의 영향을 받아 어릴 적부터 소울음악을 자연스럽게 접했다. 그는 고등학교 중퇴를 결심한 뒤 17살의 나이에 집을 떠나게 되는데, 집 떠나와 기차 타고 훈련소로 가는 대신 길거리에서 아카펠라를 부른다거나 재즈 클럽 무대에 오른다거나 심지어 랩과 비트박스가 있는 곳을 찾아다니며 음악적 경험을 쌓는다. 스티비 원더(Stevie Wonder), 제임스 브라운(James Brown), 패티 라벨(Patti LaBelle), 빌리 할리데이(Billie Holiday), 슬라이 앤드 더 패밀리 스톤(Sly & the Family Stone), 레이 찰스(Ray Charles) 등 거장들의 양분을 지속적으로 흡수했음은 물론이다.
나는 뮤지크 소울차일드를 데뷔 시절부터 동시대에 지켜보아온 사람 중 한 명이다. 한 때 그냥 ‘뮤지크’이 되었다가 다시 뮤지크 소울차일드로 돌아오기도 했던 그는 10여 년이 넘는 세월 동안 꾸준히 좋은 앨범을 발표해왔다. 먼저 데뷔앨범 [Aijuswanaseing](2000)은 적지 않은 팬들이 아직까지도 그의 디스코그래피를 통틀어 최고로 꼽는 작품이다. 이것이 뮤지크 소울차일드에게 좋은 것인지 나쁜 것인지는 모르겠으나(물론 진실은 둘 다다) 어쨌든 그의 데뷔가 알앤비/소울 팬들에게 강렬했던 것은 분명하다. 그는 디앤젤로(D'Angelo)나 맥스웰(Maxwell)과는 또 다른 네오 소울 사운드를 들고 나왔고 뮤지크 소울차일드만의 영역을 확보하는데 성공했다. [Nutty Professor II OST]에서 먼저 들어볼 수 있었던 “Just Friends (Sunny)”를 비롯해 개인적인 베스트 곡이기도 한 “Girl Next Door”, 우리나라에서 특히 좋은 반응을 얻었다고 기억되는 알앤비-발라드 “Love” 등이 수록된 앨범이었다.
두 번째 앨범 [Juslisen]은 2002년에 발표되었다. 마이너 풍의 어쿠스틱 알앤비 넘버 “HalfCrazy”, 펑키함이 극대화된 “Caughtup” 등이 담긴 이 앨범으로 뮤지크 소울차일드는 그래미 어워드에 노미네이트되는 기쁨을 맛본다. 이듬해 세상에 나온 세 번째 앨범 [Soulstar]는 지난 앨범들을 함께 작업한 카르마 프로덕션(Karma Productions)과 여전히 함께한 작품이었지만 일정한 변화 역시 느낄 수 있는 작품이었다. 그 예로 롤링 스톤스(Rolling Stones)의 곡을 리메이크한 “Missyou”를 들 수 있을 것이다.
그리고 약 4년의 공백 끝에, 데프 소울(Def Soul)에서 아틀란틱(Atlantic)으로 레이블을 옮겨 발표한 네 번째 앨범 [Luvanmusiq]은 한 가지 놀랄만한 변화를 담고 있었다. 바로 첫 싱글 “B.U.D.D.Y.”에 관한 이야기다. 타나 가드너(Taana Gardner)의 “Heartbeat”를 샘플링한 “B.U.D.D.Y.”는 그동안의 뮤지크 소울차일드에게서는 쉽게 연상할 수 없는 곡이었다. 힙합이라 불러도 무방할 강한 리듬감을 가진 이 곡은 앞으로 지속될 점진적인 변화를 예고하는 곡이기도 했다.
통산 다섯 번째 앨범 [MusiqInTheMagiq]의 바로 앞선 앨범이기도 한 [Onmyradio](2008)는 [MusiqInTheMagiq]을 설명하는데 있어 중요한 작품이다. 거칠게 말하자면 두 앨범은 음악적 지향이나 구성에 있어 쌍둥이나 다름없기 때문이다. [Onmyradio]는 ‘적절한 안배’가 미덕인 작품이었다. 다시 말해 네오 소울과 이지 리스닝 발라드, (주로 힙합과 결합한) 새로운 시도가 적절히 섞인 작품이었고, 덕분에 앨범은 산만하지 않으면서도 다채로운 구성을 가질 수 있었다. 혹자는 깊고 전형적인 네오 소울로 가득 찬 뮤지크 소울차일드의 앨범을 원할지도 모르겠지만 새로운 사운드, 새로운 시도를 위해 카르마 프로덕션과의 결별도 감행한 그의 입장에서는 여러 음악적 모험이 퍽 흥미로웠을 것이다.
Girl I know this might seem strange But let me know if I'm out of order For stepping to you this way See I've been watching you for a while And I just gotta let you know That I'm really feeling your style Cause I have to know your name And leave you with my number And I hope that you would call me someday If you want you can give me yours too And if you don't I ain't mad at'ch you We can still be cool cause

I am a victim of my time A product of my age There's no choosing my direction I was a holy man but now With all my trials behind me I am weak in my conviction
And so I walk to try to get away Knowing that someday I will finally have to face The fear that will come from knowing that The one thing I had left was you And now you're gone
You were a victim of my crimes A product of my rage You were a beautiful distraction I kept you locked away outside Let misery provide And now I am ashamed
And so I walk to try to find a space Where I can be alone to live with my mistakes And the fear that will come From knowing that the one thing I had left was you And now you're gone
Chorus: Is there nothing at all That I can do to turn your heart Is there nothing to lean on That could help erase the scars Te quiero - me quiero And I could use a little strength before I fall Is there nothing at all
I am victim of my time A product of the age You alone are my obsession You were the one I left behind You've been heavy on my mind It's been a lonely road I've traveled
And so I walk to try to get away Knowing that someday I will finally have to face The fear that will come from knowing that The one thing I had left was you And now you're gone
Chorus: Is there nothing at all That I can do to turn your heart Is there nothing to lean on That could help erase the scars Te quiero - me quiero And I could use a little strength before I fall Is there nothing at all

I could've bought me a G4 by now So I would never have to wait at the gate I could've checked in a five-star palace And would've got the whole floor for my stay And if I really, really, really wanted to Print my own money, with my own face, in my own state, like Prince Akim Living like a king, but my heart said...
(Wait) for something just a little better (Wait) - don't settle for whatever, just (Wait) for someone that can bring me everything I want and need
[Chorus] (If I had) a dollar every time I heard a 'yes', I would be (A millionaire), but I'd settle for whatever as long as I could get with (you) I'll settle for a maybe (from you) Even an 'I'll think about it, baby' ('cause you) Looking at you got me acting all crazy But I'd settle for whatever as long as I could get with (you)

Girl, you came into my life Just like a new tune on the radio It was so beautiful even though I never heard it before On that day when I looked into your eyes I realized right there that u are the one that I'm searching for When we spend time I just can't ignore that
Baby u and me we're just so good together Look at how we harmonize Girl, we're like the perfect melody that keeps getting better We can stand the test of time All we had were letters till we formed the words Started from the lyrics till we found the verses that can bridge us through Baby we could be the greatest love song
You truly complement my style Sorta like a good rhyme done to the track, You're so wonderful, these days it's so rare to find something like that And everybody needs a little bit of inspiration And baby, you, you're mine Just like a guitar needs a string, girl I need you There's no reason I could ever leave you
Baby u and me we're just so good together Look at how we harmonize Girl, we're like the perfect melody that keeps getting better We can stand the test of time All we had were letters till we formed the words Started from the lyrics till we found the verses that can bridge us through Baby we could be the greatest love song
All my life, I've been waiting for you and now you're here with me So, don't worry about a thing Even when we're old and gray, I'll still be loving you
That, baby u and me are just so good together Look at how we harmonize Girl, we're like the perfect melody that keeps getting better We can stand the test of time All we have are the letters till we form the words Started from the lyrics till we found the verses that can bridge us through Baby we could be the greatest love song
I got a real good woman now Someone between a lover and a friend It feels good when she's around Cause she's so far from all the other that i've been with Cause I thought I knew what love was but it wasn't until She came and changed my life And now i realize that All the love in this world I wanna give to this girl Because she makes me wanna be a better man And all the games I've player are in the pass Because I know this one's gonna last It's crazy how she makes me wanna be a better man for her When I look into her eyes i see So much in her that reminds me of myself in awe She's so beautiful body soul and mind and i Just wanna be the one to make her feel good in a special way I'm a hug and kiss her and tell her how much i miss her when she's gone because i know that i will never find another one like her at all All the love in this world I wanna give to this girl Because she makes me wanna be a better man And all the games I've player are in the pass Because I know this one's gonna last It's crazy how she makes me wanna be a better man for her When it's said and done you wanna Be with someone who's gonna Be there for you when all your chips are down And no one's around and when No matter how hard it gets she will always be by your side To comfort you like only a woman does and that's way All the love in this world I wanna give to this girl Because she makes me wanna be a better man And all the games I've player are in the pass Because I know this one's gonna last It's crazy how she makes me wanna be a better man All the love in this world I wanna give to this girl Because she makes me wanna be a better man And all the games I've player are in the pass Because I know this one's gonna last It's crazy how she makes me wanna be a better man for her
Babe when i'm with you it make's me wanna be a better man Every day and night it's ture you make me wanna be a better man Hangin out with you just makes me wanna be a better man And Laying up with you really makes me wanna be a better man Babe when i'm with you it make's me wanna be a better man Every day and night it's ture you make me wanna be a better man Hangin out with you just makes me wanna be a better man
CHORUS: Comin to break you off I'm comin to break you off
1st verse Bad misses throwing raspberry kisses on me You looking for direction girl I feel your vision on me Just don't let him see you sweatin we ain't 'sposed to be involved Knowin when we get it off girl I mean it all Keepin ya pheenin til you're taken and tossed And when I'm breakin it off there's no denying the fact it's strong Cuz you got a man who's probably playin his part You probably breakin his heart He's trying to figure the reason you gone
Is it cuz he's superficial? Or is he too submissive? Or did I come along and hit you with the futuristic? Or is it cuz you really couldn't see a future with him All he bout is paper never took the time to choose or listen
You wanna get gripped up, flipped and thrown And get strictly shown The way to get in the zone. Of course, Dealing with this you won't be taking a loss You need to leave him alone and roll With the one who's breaking you off
Chorus
2nd verse Brother down the hall The one you bound to call Workaholics are really I'm rarely around at all
What we started got serious reprecautions in court We had a chance to turn back, but look now it's what Late nights twistin something Listenin to Neicey sing She got the beef for you telling me you deeply Appreciate the company, time we spend I feel the same, it's a shame you ain't my girlfriend Cuz listen, you need a brotha with the physical fix Who come through in the mix For you with no head tricks or fraud
You need a new position and who can get you open Like eucalyptus and have ready to go for yours Come on and wo
Last night I had a dream Of a beautiful day And like a song An angel passed my way She was the embodiment of perfection With skin like the sky And her hair was as long as time Then she turned to me yeah With her big proud eyes Her voice flowed like water And it brought a tear to my eye And she said to me Soulstar Oh you're come So far from where you started Don't be afraid To let your light Shine on the world Soulstar Oh you're come So far from where you started Don't be afraid To let your light Shine on the world Soulstar Oh you're come So far from where you started Don't be afraid To let your light Shine on the world Soulstar Oh you're come So far from where you started Don't be afraid To let your light Shine on the world
