Guilty pleasure track...
Sly was a lot more revolutionary than a lot of people give him credit for. In a lot of ways he was a game changer. The sound of his music, the look of his group, the fact that it was an interracial band...
Prince doesn't exist without Sly
Martin Scorsese directed this video. Yes that Scorsese...Mean Streets, Goodfellas, Taxi Driver etc. What I didn't know until a couple years ago was that the little mini film that precedes the music was scripted by Richard Price who wrote the novel "Clockers" which was turned into a film directed by Spike Lee.
New Edition is pretty much ground zero for a generation of boy bands. The Jackson five are like E=mc2 and NW is Oppenheimer.
From what I understand is that NW fired their manager and he deliberately said, "I'll show you, I'll start a white group!" And that's how we got New Kids On the Block.

I know I can't be the only person on this thread that likes "old" Alicia Keys...
Now playing:
Part 1 of the New Edition story came on last night. It's pretty good so far, anything with Wood Harris I'm usually into. Part 2 comes on tonight. This is probably my favorite BBD song. 9th grade baby!
I APOLOGIIIZE!!
