Mr. Mtume. Undisputed legend!!! One, if not, the many reasons I begin to listen to old school classic R&B from the '70s and '80s. Every time I discover a record from that era, I'm eager to put it in my Spotify playlist. I thank my parents for putting me on great R&B music.

He was also one of the last people to see Donny Hathaway alive (he recorded Donny &Roberta's song Back Together hours b4 Donny committed suicide)..
