STOCK SOUL™
GENRE DEFINITION & MANIFESTO
Welcome to Stock Soul, the playlist—and movement—designed for your mind, mood, and money. This genre curates the warmth of classic R&B and soul, then pairs it with a modern purpose: helping you cultivate the perfect atmosphere for investing, learning financial literacy, and building a wealth-driven mindset.
If you love old-school R&B and you’re serious about leveling up financially, this is your new digital sanctuary.
Origins of the Genre
Stock Soul was created by David L. Wadley—award-winning author of The AI Revolution Will Not Be Televised. Drawing on his deep background as a Hollywood supervising sound editor, Black independent filmmaker, and YouTube influencer The Price Bandit, Wadley has produced and edited hundreds of music videos with millions of views.
His journey through sound design, storytelling, and personal finance converged into a single vision: a new musical language where soul meets wealth consciousness.

The Stock Soul Manifesto
More Than Music—A Lifestyle
1. Wealth is emotional.
Money is not just numbers—it’s confidence, self-worth, heritage, and healing. Stock Soul gives sound to the emotional journey of wealth-building.
2. Ownership is empowerment.
From owning your sound to owning your future, Stock Soul champions financial autonomy and generational wealth as acts of resistance and renewal.
3. Learning should feel good.
Financial literacy doesn’t have to be dry or intimidating. Soulful music creates the perfect gateway into mindsets and habits that shape long-term success.
4. Culture drives behavior.
Music influences mood, mood influences action, and action influences wealth. Stock Soul turns cultural rhythm into financial momentum.
5. Heart + Hustle = Harmony.
You don’t have to choose between soulful living and ambitious goals. Stock Soul blends them into a single frequency you can live by.
Stock Soul is a mindset. A movement. A soundtrack for the financially focused.
It empowers listeners to:
-
Build financial confidence
-
Pursue generational wealth
-
Heal their relationship with money
-
Align emotional wellness with financial strategy
-
Connect heart and hustle through sound
Stock Soul isn’t just what you listen to. It’s what you move like, think like, and build like.
