The population was 5,511 at the 2020 census. Gifford has a rich African American history.

The area was named as the Woodley precinct in the 1900 census, and as a settlement village for black families, the community grew.

Love So Soft
"Love So Soft" is a song by American singer Kelly Clarkson, from her eighth studio album, '' Meaning of Life'' (2017). Accompanied by another track "Move You", it was released on September 7, 2017, by Atlantic Records as the lead single from the album. It was produced by Jesse Shatkin, who co-wrote the song with Maureen "Mozella" McDonald and Priscilla Renea. A brassy soul-trap R&B anthem, it was promulgated by Atlantic as her introductory record in the soul music genre. Lyrically, it is about wanting to get closer to someone, after challenging him to give respect and protection before giving him a love that is described as "so soft" in return. Upon its release, "Love So Soft" has received a positive response from music pundits, some of whom praised Clarkson's vocal performance. Modestly successful in the charts, it charted at number 47 on the '' Billboard'' Hot 100 chart and became her sixth song to reach the top of the ''Billboard'' Hot Dance Club Songs chart.

Grammy Award For Best New Artist
The Grammy Award for Best New Artist has been awarded since 1959. Years reflect the year in which the Grammy Awards were handed out, for records released in the previous year. The award was not presented in 1967. The official guidelines are as follows: "For a new artist who releases, during the Eligibility Year, the first recording which establishes the public identity of that artist." Note that this is not necessarily the first album released by an artist; for example, Shelby Lynne won the award in 2001 after having already released six albums over 13 years. The Best New Artist award has a reputation for being given to artists whose music industry success ends up being short-lived; it is sometimes asserted, with varying degrees of sincerity, that the award itself brings a curse. This viewpoint was expressed by former Starland Vocal Band member Taffy Nivert, Taffy Danoff in a 2002 interview for VH1's ''The Greatest (TV series), 100 Greatest One Hit Wonders'': "We got two of the ...
