Motown genre (4)
I believe the answer is:
soul
'motown genre' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for soul that I've seen before include "The immaterial part of a person" , "Glaser's partner" , "Deep feeling - music genre" , "Individual; type of music" , "Music genre; human spirit" .)
