[C] Hi,
[E] [B] [C]
I'm [E] [N]
Greg and this is an introduction to the 251 chord progression.
And the 251 chord progression is perhaps the most popular chord progression in contemporary [Fm] music.
Just highly used in R&B, jazz, funk, neo-soul, contemporary Christian, gospel music.
There is not one of those songs in those genres that you can't find 251s all over that music.
And that's why it's so important that we learn how to use and understand the 251 in our playing.
Here's some open voiced 251 chord progression sound like this.
[Bbm] [Ebm] [Fm]
[Bb] [Bbm] [Ebm]
Okay, and then you also have closed voiced chords that may sound something [Eb] like this.
[Bb] [Ebm]
And then there are 251s in [D] minor keys.
[G] [Cm]
Then you have 251 in [Ebm] major keys.
[Ab]
[Db] And then you have some 251s with some alternate [Gm] progressions like this [Dm] one.
[C] Or maybe [Ebm] this one.
[D] [Db] Or maybe this [Ebm] one.
[Ab] [Db]
So it's just so many [F] varieties in there.
Now we're still in the key of C major.
Okay, [C] so 1, [B]
[E] 251 of [Am] the 6th, [Em] [Gm] 251 of the 4th change of the [C] octaves.
Then maybe a 3 [Em] chord.
[C] So there's so many options we can do.
But the [A] practice exercise, whatever key you want to do it in, [Db] if you want to take the D flat.
One chord in D flat, then a [C] 251 of the [Fm] [Bbm] 6th, then a [Abm] 251 of the [Gb] 4th.
So my [Eb] 251 of the 6th in the key of D flat.
[Am] [E] [C]

[E] [N]
