Video Soul is a two–hour long American music video program that originally aired on BET (Black Entertainment Television) from June 26, 1981, to September 1996.The program was devoted to showcasing R&B and Soul recording artists and performers' music videos. Video Soul premiered on June 26, 1981, and was originally a half-hour show. The show was created after MTV refused to play videos by most African American musicians, as MTV made the de facto color policy effective. Both BET and Video Soul served as a place of refuge for new African American musical talent.
