Old School R&B is king.
Luther Vandross? Anita Baker? Earth Wind & Fire?
How do you top something like Rick James and Tina Marie’s “Fire and Desire” ?
|
|
|
I'm good ego 
KaiserSoce --- Great Artists, all top vocalists, their music is timeless
Rick James --- Never was a big fan of his, but not putting down his music either, just didn't appeal to me as much as other solo artists and bands did ...
Tina Marie --- Square Biz, I'm talkin' square biz to you baby... Great vocalist RIP Tina ...

Packed a dance floor back in the day
|
|
|
Dance with Euphoria
|
|
|
The big 3 bands were :
Earth Wind & Fire
The Commodores
Kool & The Gang
Top 2 Solo Artists were :
Michael Jackson
Prince
Being behind these 5 wasn't a bad thing, just that these 5 dominated record sales for a lot of years, and their music is always recognizable and still admired 40 years later
|
|
|
lets talk the Gap band @Pete Malloy
|
|
|
@Kaiser Soce - you don't "Fire and Desire" by Rick James and Teena Marie is one of the greatest slow jam duets of all time.. That song, pretty much created Teena Marie and cemented her as a staple RnB artist

Pete your man card has been revoked please pick up your simp card after lunch.
|
|
|
more funk this one is for @Goddess Euphoria
|
|
|
Fuck You Ego !!!
|
|
|
need more funk to calm this hostile situation
|
|

The Gap Band played some funk = YES
Did funk inspire them ? Absolutely
But make no mistake about it, they'd never be mentioned with the likes of :
Parliament
Funkadelics
George Clinton
Bootsy Collins
Cameo - Pre 1984
Most people have zero idea of one song that true FUNK bands performed from back in the day...
But yet, the popular R&B songs from that same era, are still recognizable to the masses, still played on airwaves, and still pack the dance floors
|
|
|
The Gap Band = One of the great R&B Bands
|
|
|
It's early in the morning
Gotta find me a lover that won't run for cover
|
|
|
The song that put the Gap Band on the map
|

I've met Charlie twice, and he's cool AF
He's R&B all the way
This video quality sucks, but he's with El DeBarge here cause he wants to bring in El's falsetto --- which is totally R&B
|

Nobody will remember your tunes 10, 20, 30, 40 years from now EGO, so a big fuck you bro !!!
Your music may inspire you, but it isn't even their music, it's somebody else's ... So another fuck you Ego !!!
R&B --- Always was and always will be little bro
|
|

I don’t want to shit on anyone’s music... people like what they like. To each his own...
But there is truth in...”Nobody will remember your tunes 10, 20, 30, 40 years from now...”
Most people don’t remember it from last year.
Let’s see who is still selling out large venues (if large venues still exist) and who Is playing county fairs on bills 5 other artists/groups from the same genre.
|
|
|
I do have to say... in hindsight.... the costumes of 70s and 80s were Ridiculous lol
|
|
|
Pete at least play some 2pac or something cool.
Perhaps you don’t age as fast
|
|
|
Fuck you Ego !!!
2 pac was rap --- although a great artist --- one of the best ever Rapper's --- it wasn't his music ---
it was R&B music from the 70's and 80's remixed, so it does take away some of the shine on his artistry...
|
|
|
Belly and Pete, exchanging body blows....
|
|
|
Can’t wait for the next contest, GE!
|
|
|
Pete and Ego, to box it out... 3 rounds... Loser buys lunch...
|
|
|
Damn let me change this up.
Pete and Ego to box it out....3 round exhibition...prize is what GE said above
Perfect-Circle will be the referee. Clinching is not allowed, because I know Pete will
Clinching.

I love both, vibe to Dre and Snoop, more old school rap, and some of the new stuff also, also love old R&B.
Of all the concerts I have been too in my life there are 4 that stand out
Cal Jam II way back in the day and Us 83
Zep in 77
But Probably one of the funnest, most energetic concerts was Earth Wind and Fire back in the 70's

IIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTSSSSSSS TIME
|
|
|
^ Sorry for the cheap Buffer impersonation
|
|
|
Don’t be sorry man. This is the type of fun we need during tough covid times.
Rather than bickering and talking about politics. Good stuff guys
Btw this is just an act between Pete and I. Pete and I are bros, no homo.
|
|
|
Did someone mention " The Time "
|
|
|
I used to listen to allot of the Spinners also
|
|
|
Yes Ego
Glad you prefaced with " No Homo "
|
|
|
Rocky listen to Throw Away by Future...good music
Essential life lessons in that song
|
|
|
Co-Stars of Purple Rain
The Time was awesome, always packed the dance floor
|
|
|
Housewife by Dre seems to have life lessons also, not sure the ladies here would agree though
|
|
|
lol I already posted the Time!!!!!!!!!!!!! sigh
I get's no credit
|
|
|
I am surprised you know about 2pac @PeteMalloy. Even thou you do not know who . A Tribe Called Quest, The Roots and Mos Def are.
|
|
|
Future is garbage bro. I understand you like his beats and I bet that’s the only reason why you listen to him. Future is not hip hop at all. That is white girl pop .
|
|
|
I agree ^. His toxic catchy lyrics and memes are a gold mine.
|
|
|
Real Musicians --- who actually wrote, produced and performed their OWN songs
|
|
|
Prince before he crossed over with the 1999 album
|
|
|
Michael before he went crazy with the plastic surgery
|
|
|
The Kings of the Humanities --- Earth, Wind & Fire
Phillip and Maurice --- best combo ever
|
|
|
Part of the Holy Trinity of R&B
Kool & The Gang
|
|
|
I had HIGH HOPES for you Ego and your generation...
But you have failed miserably to carry on the tradition of awesome music
|
