My sister just passed also. She was big fan. She got me to become a big fan. I went to one of his concert and it was Outstanding!!!

[@88wyrick]

Saw Uncle Charlie and immediately clicked this video! He’s one of the only Artist left who can STILL make timeless music. Also, didn’t know he sang on computer love 🤯

[@nwananka]

Lol easy decision. Went i grabbed my good headphones

[@Heyu7her3]

You can tell based on the runs at the end lol

[@Idontentertainfoolishness]

​@@Heyu7her3 that's what im saying

[@rayaee]

Those last ad libs sounded so freaking familiar & I was like "that sounds like CW". It got confirmed today.

[@isisabali8412]

He does the runs at the end! Signature Charlie!

[@camilleharvey2557]

This is EXACTLY what the tiny desk concerts are for 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 PERFECTION 🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@esthervilla1219]

Uncle Charlie has a voice like no other. Love his music from the Gap Band to his solo career. My favorite though is “If I Don’t Have You”. 🎶💜

[@bathingape215]

Everyone on stage is sensational at what they do. They look like they’re having a fun this was amazing

[@BCDC123]

Uncle Charlie over 50 years in the game and still sounding outstanding. Unk is a National Treasure‼️. One of the most distinctive voices to ever to bless the mic.

[@matthewlucas1082]

Totally agree!!!

[@blakkjedi7476]

Did he just have a praise break in the middle of his Tiny Desk concert? I didn't know how much I needed that!

[@La_Femme_Noir]

Uncle Charlie! 🙌🏽🙌🏽 And the backup singers understood the assignment!!! You can’t half step backing up Charlie Wilson. This was amazing!!!

[@treesasabato7547]

Right. Background have to be on point.

[@gypsycat26]

This concert is on point. Charlie Wilson brought the fire. The musicians and back up singers are so tight and soulful. This performance was too short. ✨🔥

[@lindaponder6590]

WAY 2short! I'm jammin & then the 🎶 Music Stops.

[@nowandlaterz]

Timeless timeless music. That Computer Love rendition with the sax was fire. One of my all time favorites Salute Uncle Charlie!

[@forthesnowflakes7691]

[@kimberlykilpatrick4352]

[@matthewlucas1082]

[@SteveAdamsChannel]

Just watched the Babyface show and now hearing "There Goes My Baby" another gem written by him! He and Charlie Wilson are by far two of my favorite living male artist!

[@byrdtaylor5703]

Omg, I didn't know Babyface wrote that song.

[@user-mx7pi1oz2d]

Calvin Richardson wrote that song

[@aleeking1]

Unc been setting the mic of fire 🔥 since the 70’s and still killing it, found myself in tears 😢 Glory be to the Most High GOD 🙌🏽

[@bigslimm7]

The backup vocals and the sax player killed that computer love 💪🏽

[@natalies9539]

[@AlonzoRiley-0928]

The Bass player is dope

[@cindy212772]
