RICK JAMES - GHETTO LIFE LIVE 1982

[@kindell1]

I'm forever jealous of my dad because he got to witness this man's greatness firsthand live in Detroit. Damn, must've been nice

[@MrImthatguyfhosho]

Most underrated artist ever. He is and was that man.

[@Broomey95]

You ain’t lying 🤘🏼

[@MoneyComethToshelia]

lol he was never underrated!!

[@DiscoHank]

@@MoneyComethToshelia I know right. There was a time when Rick RULED. Growing up in the '80s, he was one of the last of the great Funk artists still going when the '80s babies came up.

[@Kwando3242]

yup, he really is.

[@St.Maurice]

Underrated producer too!!!

[@Inteva]

I saw Rick James in concert 4 times. Unbelievable talent!

[@roberthiguera602]

Gotta grow up in the ghetto to truly respect this song. Been there

[@Grpr8]

One thing bout the ghetto, you don't have to hurry. It'll be there tomorrow, brotha don't you worry.

[@brucegwynn8509]

I'm still here man!!

[@Tekzeiro84.]

Facts!

[@ImMoonMan]

This is the only song of its kind, where funk and vibes fill the groove but the subject matter is much deeper and somewhat darker than what it sounds like. Brilliant 🤌

[@donnettamccray1627]

My absolute favorite song by Rick❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ wish I could’ve seen him in his prime live! Still listening to this in July 2023 cause this muthaf*ck a is funky!!!!!!! RIH Funk King Rick James 😍

[@basquait1]

James Brown.....George Clinton....Roger Troutmann....Rick James....Larry Blackmon.....Prince......Funk Masters!!!

And you put the right one first🔥

[@maxferdy7702]

Michael Jackson

[@InnerVisions68]

@@maxferdy7702 Lmao. Michael Jackson is not funk

[@maxferdy7702]

@@InnerVisions68 he made some funk songs…

[@InnerVisions68]

@Star Brite Don’t be ridiculous, most of all with your assumptions. I’ve probably heard Off The Wall in its entirety than you heard all Michael Jackson and Jackson 5 albums combined. There’s nothing on Off The Wall that’s funk. Do you even know what funk is?

[@baricade47]

I feel like music was neutered at some point... This is legendary.

[@octaviof.g.7316]

i think syncs crushed music. when you are writing to get placed in ads you write differently

[@brebrebliss6286]

I grew up in Buffalo New York just like he did so i know

[@southerncontributions]

2024 STILL KILLING IT!

[@SuperStrik9]

Look at what Rick's wearing. Dude did not *GIVE A FUCK!!!* Gotta love it.

[@denisemiller9296]

His outfit was great and the sparkles are so the people way in the back can see him

[@SuperStrik9]

@@denisemiller9296 💯Rick rules. One of the things I love about Rick was he didn't care what others thought about him. He'd wear and do whatever he wanted.🤘

[@itznaz6854]

Ghetto Life is so underrated

[@victorymansions]

Rockpalast bouncing! The only other time I've seen it like that is the Big Country shows!

I can’t get out of this. He is too good.

[@duncan_og]

[@SoulPuppy2]

Saw the “Super Freak” a few times. Always, always a party. He always turnt up.

[@stonepony2285]

I hope the movie be on point about Funk Master Rick James ! The world will never see nothing like him again

[@Broomey95]

Rest In Peace Rick James, never gone and never forgotten 🤙🏼🤘🏼

[@felixvargas9373]

He lived it 5x for each of us what a man imagine living it like him

[@DannyWilliams-ch6xq]

Intuitive AND masterful arranger. He EARNED that thing he had on him, wish he could've accepted this, b/c he went down hurtful paths, unnecessarily. RJ got his from THE TRUTH. RJ is missed, but NOT forgotten.

[@ronmills1504]

❤ One thing about the Ghetto you don’t have to worry, it’ll be there tomorrow…. A truthful writer and great musician.

[@deniskostic1502]

9 haters which do not have feeling for music, or James was with their chicks!!!!

[@thomasgriffin2782]

Hard jam from one of the best of his time. Still great to me in September 2018, thirty six years later!

[@brentb5303]

He kind of became half joke, half legend after Chappelle show. He was an excellent singer live and in the studio. His band was amazing chops players but he will unfortunately be remembered as Rick James bitch.

[@zjah1]
