The young Gen Z (corrected from "millenials") who said Bruno is culturally appropriating missed the train (no pun intended). When you have OG artists across every genre of music saying how Bruno is keeping MUSIC relevant, it shows the homage and respect Bruno gives back to those who came before him. Add Anderson in the mix and you also have a throwback artist who reflects the need for heartfelt music that one can only feel in the soul. Yet, Silk Sonic keeps it fresh and innovative with their own expression. Not very many remakes of classics make the cut. This one, as well as the original, are timeless!

They don't even know the definition of the term cultural appropriation. They saw something that went viral on the internet and just ran with it.

I am 22 and have been a fan of Bruno since I was 13. He’s always paid homage and gave credit to black artists. People who say he is culturally appropriating have not done their research. He is not Miley Cyrus.

I usually don't like remakes, especially of songs that I already love but Silk Sonic gave it just enough Silk Sonic to keep my interest. Now my kids in the car like dad didn't we just listen to this song twice in a row and I'm like Yeah but the first was ConFunkShun, then was Dru Hill, and this is Silk Sonic.

True story: I remember when I first heard the Lazy Song by Bruno, I didn’t think much of it. But one day my radio alarm went off and it was playing the song. I got out of bed, called into work sick and did absolutely nothing the entire day. That’s when I became a fan, but didn’t become a super mega-fan until “When I was your man”, and have been on Bruno’s train from that on. It’s unbelievable that one man can possess so much talent, and not mediocre in anything he does - singing, dancing, playing multiple instruments, writing music for himself and other artists, producing music and shows, directing videos. He does it all. Love love love Bruno Mars!

I heard him singing Love’s Train and he knew all the words. I said hey what do you know about that. I had to go in and I noticed it was not Con Funchion. I had to find out who that was he was listening to. Silk Sonic was doing there thang. I told my grandson that song is 40 years old. I love music and I will have to introduce more of our music to him. R & B is still alive.

I was surprised by how close Silk Sonic's cover is to the original, but it's easy to see why Bruno and Anderson went that route. Then I saw this conversation, and was really moved by Michael and Felton's enthusiasm and humility. I feel so glad that their music is receiving recognition from a new generation.

When I first heard Brono and Anderson's version, I had to pull the car over and ROCK OUT. Then I played my best of Confunkshun CD and fell in love with my whole day. Thanks Confunkshun and all that you've collab'd with (Taste of Honey especially).

My daughter came to me and said, mom, listen to this. I usually don’t like these new artist remaking our music, I mean my age. But yes, they did Confunkshun proud. Great cover. And I am glad they approved.

Thank You, Miss T for this "Exclusive" interview. I specifically searched to see how ConFunkShun would respond to the cover. I'm elated to hear Michael and Felton give accolades to Bruno and Anderson for their artistry! I still listen to the original on HEAVY rotation and now, Silk Sonic made a new version. #Genius 💣💋💌💕👠👠

So proud of Bruno Mars and Anderson Paak making great timeless music. So happy to how well they get along and it shows in their music and videos. Class act. Their music is beautifully and geniusly arranged. Love’s Train is an example of this. Kudos to Silk Sonic.

Bruno's dad is Puerto Rican from NY. It's in his bones... Mr Hernandez is a drummer and like my dad played nuthing but the best of Soul Music and Funk .. Bruno was raised on it and everything's cool...

The original tune by ConFunkShun was appealing to all I do remember, mostly the youth of that time, who listened and danced to it (slow jammin)...Brunos just a full out phenomenon and big ups to Anderson Pak and Silk as well, talented brothers!

Michael Cooper has a pure voice. It is strong yet silky. Back in the day, I had the worst crush on him! I still love Confunkshun's music. I love the backstory of this song. It takes me back to much simpler times.
