Whenever i listen to these soul classics i wonder whether God has stopped creating musicians who are talented like those of the 90s, 80s 70s and way back from 50s.

[@joshuaberry5465]

Man...this right here is ANOTHER 80's banger. If you weren't there, it's kinda hard to explain the vibe, the feeling, the energy, love, life, the people and the food. Yeah some things didn't make it to this decade. But for us that enjoyed those times, you are truly blessed.

[@MzBh4vin]

I've been listening to this over and over since I found it and the nostalgia is very fresh in my mind summertime in NYC aaaahh memories like this are priceless

[@jsmith3692]

It’s ok I don’t think it explainable I’m 52 and from the Bronx and this was absolutely one of the best times to be alive when it comes to music and partying . I think we just have to cherish the memories and be thankful we were able to be a part of it . 80’s and 90’s have to be top five for music era

[@Unplugged7007]

Right!! "The VIBE, The FEELING, The LOVE!!" You Nailed It!! It was the HBCU College Year's for me - 1988/1989 Tennessee State University in Nashville, Tennessee. The Vibe, The Love, The Energy was incredible!!! I would play this so loud in the car on the Campus!! This was my ONE and the entire Cassette stayed on replay!!!

People ask why they don't make music like this any more - but the answer is quite simple, and it's all down to fact that people are no longer happy. We live a sterile, artificial world where hatred of our fellow man is acceptable. Ask yourself this; when was the last time you heard a truly happy or uplifting song apart from Pharrell's 'Happy'?

[@ministermadden]

Elizabeth Bolden that's awesome thanks for the info I appreciate it.

[@elizabethbolden4791]

Gene was a monstaer...he was the one who ran Timothy Gatling off (Tim put GUY together, and he was on the cover of the debut album, and his songs were Business, and You Can Call Me Crazy)Gene has passed away now..he still has a legacy in music, but it was at Teddy Riley's expense...Gene was such a fuckin hater man...when Teddy left him, he took all the beats Teddy had left in the studio, and used them for a fake sounding GUY group called Basic Black.

[@ministermadden]

Elizabeth Bolden thats crazy I was wondering why basic black sounded so much like guy thats sad he couldnt even give basic black their own sound even the lead singer sounded like Aaron hall.The crazy part is i enjoyed basic blacks album even though they copied guy but i didnt know that gene stole teddys beats thats crazy,thanks for the info much appreciated

[@elizabethbolden4791]

Not a problem...yeah when Teddy left Gene...Gene told him he owned everything Teddy had to start over from scratch...he moved to Virginia Beach where I met him, opened up a management company called LOR Entertaiment (Life Of Riley), and a studio called Future Records on Virginia Beach Blved. Teddy never looked back after then, he kept it moving.
