Rick James is so UNDERRATED as a compser and arranger. PUNK FUNK is just a small part of who he was. This is my favorite song by Rick. I really appreciate you as a young person being open to explore. Salute to you!!!!!!!

Oh, Teena did another duo with some man called “ You know we’ve got to stop meeting like this”. He isn’t Rick but he did a great job and Teena could make anyone sound good!❤

Rick is such a sad story. The antics, the drug use, Chappelle Show, hatred of Prince all overshadowed what he was...a genuis. Dude could blow, he actually hung with Teena who in my opinion is one of the greats.

@@TrillEverything By the time Rick did Glow in 84' he was on Princes label and wearing ruffles. The previous 4 years he was talking about Prince in any paper and magazine that interview him. He even injected Prince into his beef with MTV. Hip Hop was just another genre in the 80's not the everything it is today. By the early 90's when Hip Hop blew up Rick was already in jail.

@@creditorclass6513 I'm 60. I remember when there was no Rick James & I remember when there was no Hip Hip. I lived the beginning of both of them. Rick James demise started when Hip Hip boomed with Run DMC, LL, Dougie Fresh, Mantronix and electric drum machine music. Soul music & funk R&B sputtered and died.. It was over! Rap killed it by 1983. Only Michael & Prince survived, but as Pop Acts...not black R&P acts.

@@TrillEverything Rap was just another genre in 83'. MTV didn't even have Yo MTV Raps on air yet. Sometimes we look back and think Run DMC breaking through meant RnB was dead but it didn't happen that early. Michael and Prince breaking through didn't mean they weren't still dominant on the RnB charts. Rick should have been around much longer and doesn't get the credit he deserves, that we both agree on. I think Rick's habits were actually developed in the 60's and early 70's and he felt that lifestyle was what it meant to be a star.
