ThePrincessShow this is still not talked about in Tulsa! I grew up and still live here. Never heard about it in school or anything. Not to mention north Tulsa is destroyed and no one cares to try to help. This makes sense now knowing this. This pisses me off!
ThePrincessShow Already know 😃 Represent our hometown brother to the fullest, and thank you Lord for keeping him and giving him the desires of his heart❤️😇 Always and forever a Charlie Wilson fan!!
I damn near cried when my 25 year old co-worker told me that Charlie Wilson is her favorite singers. Goes to show that good music transcends from generation to generation. ❤️
I’m early 40s and he is absolutely one of my favs. I took my mother to his recent concert and we had a ball!! God has truly blessed him and has graced us with him to hear his story and see the transformation! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Yes Beautiful Queen I was born in 85 I don't listen to much of this garbage today I don't blame the youth I blame those gready Jews For stealing our talent and our wealth. But I'm going back in time To discover classic music like Prince and Odis Redding. The blues and so much more. Music is so healing. Lord knows I need it.
I'd like to thank SNOOP DOGG for practically resurrecting CW's career. He had a significant role on THE DOGGFATHER album in '96. He's been winning ever since. PLUS, HE STILL SOUNDS AS DOPE AS 1982!!
R.Kelly was the one who actually made it happen. Snoop set him straight but when Kells brought him back with my name is Charlie that was the boost he needed. He never looked back.
“Outstanding” by the Gap band, along with “Before I Let Go” by Frankie Beverly and Maze, “Fire and Desire” by Rick James and Teena Marie, and “Computer Love” by Zapp are by far the best R&B songs of ALL time. THESE ARE MY OPINIONS...I also love the Isley Brothers, EWF, Luther, Teddy P., etc.
Charlie Wilson doesn't bring this up very often, but before his GAP band, he attended the only HBCU in OK, Langston University, was a Drum Major and graduated with his Music degree.
I appreciated this interview for so many reasons. Our elders are so transparent and those stories that they're willingly departing into us have to be cherished. The depth of his testimony is a real reflection of the grace given to us by Jesus Christ. That prayer was necessary as well, thank you Unc.
Uncle Charlie: The Legend, there would be no Aaron Hall or R.Kelly without him. The Gap Band's music will forever be a celebration in blackness at weddings and cookouts for generations to come.
I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma they have not started digging the mass graves to find the bodies of all the people that lost their lives during that tragedy. The Tulsa race riots was the first time a Bomb was used on American soil.
So true. My grandmother was 106 years old when she died. A couple years before she passed my father interviewed her, unbeknownst to the family. He put it in writing, made copies and gave it to us for Christmas. She was old enough to let go of secrets, trauma, etc. we learned so much from her. She was surprised that we were interested.
Kenton Connors for real! Black Hollywood should make a movie about this so our youngins can see the TRUE STORY and learn the history of blacks in this country! PLEASE tell this story on screen
I'm glad Breakfast club are interviewing these Music Legendary Artist, these young cats need to pay attention . Charlie Wilson been a Mega Star since the 70s and it's 2020 now
@@marshayemanuel4774 I was born late 70 just remember the music as a kid , but respecting the fact that he's still in the game sounding and looking good and it's 20/20 , some of the 90s singers look like straight shit right now and can't even sing any more.
I performed on a cruise with him a few years back and i thought i had flamed the stage during my show. Then i went to go see him on the top deck and he put on a MASTERCLASS on how to do it!! Bruh i was in awe! Afterwards he was the coolest cat on the ship. When you say "Legend" he personifies it.
"When you sing, that's God. When Envy sings, that's the absence of God!" 😂😂😂 Hilarious!! I had the privilege of seeing Charlie Wilson live, as, well. UNBELIEVABLE!!!
I'm so sorry about his struggles in life but glad he's still with us, sober and making music! A true legend and talented man. Much love and respect for Uncle Charlie 💕🙏
Charlie needs to go to a podcast for a interview cause this was a GREAT interview but you cant compress his story to less than a hour.. at less 2-3 hours imo
Charlie and Estelle are the reason I got through the deployment. 2011 he came to Kuwait I was in awe watching him dancing 🕺🏾 it was so hypnotizing I’ll never forget that he was so gracious
I’m a young artist from Tulsa Oklahoma and I live off GREENWOOD (archer and pine) and I really appreciate you Charlie Wilson for showing us we can make it out.. growing up here, it seems impossible.. thank you 💙
So true!! Great performer. I've seen him at the Essence Fest and perform on a pop up stage for my unit and I while we were deployed in the Middle East! Same great performance!!
The Breakfast Club finally does something right🙏🏿✨ This man right here is a living legend and one of the masters of New Jack Swing. If you are a fan of early funk or West Coast G funk, this is one of the men you owe your thank you to. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Lethal Tresses New Jack Swing was a style of R&B popular in the late 80s to mid 90s. West Coast G funk was the popular style of Hip Hop in California throughout the 90s.
Charlie Wilson is a timeless talent and personality. Salt of the earth and seems as if he's able to relate to everyone. He also seems to have an eternal youthful exuberance.
Queen Kee you sound ignorant. People don’t know what they aren’t taught, we are taught about the white man but not about our history. Granted, we should read books and just realize how important we are and know our beginnings. Anyway, if y’all wanna be in a reading club let me know! I’m currently reading WEB Dubois biography
I can identify with Charlie Wilson and his testimony about God changing his life . I enjoy his music and his courage talking about his victory over addiction , AWESOME!
Legend. The story he told of Tulsa Black Wall Street was really eye opening. My UNCLE AND AUNT have lived in Broken Arrow (suburb of Tulsa) almost 40 years now. Not once have they told the story of that terrible tragedy of the 20's in Tulsa. Wow. Great interview non the less. I enjoyed it.
The "Hidden Colors" Documentary does a excellent job explaining what happened with Black Wall street.... The Best Black History Documentry series by far
I was raised mostly in Lawton but all my people from OKC. My grandmother told me that they just heard rumors of it but weren't supposed to talk about it.
His voice is literally the timeline of my childhood ❤️ Got to see him in concert a few years ago and HE’s AMAZING!! He does a praise and worship segment in his shows and it brought the crowd to tears! Love him!
I love the old school. I also love there interviews, alot of these old school legends when they do interviews they are so honest and raw about there past, they tell it like it is, they tell the best stories. It makes us all appreciate our grandparents and aunties, gotta respect the old school. 💪🏾💪🏾
The first time I'd heard "GROOVE ME" by Guy, I honestly thought it was Charlie featured on a New Jack Swing joint. Aaron Hall practically owes his whole career to this dude.
@@tlig Wanna know what's funny? When I heard CL as a kid, I said to my Mama, 'hey, that sounds like Stevie Wonder..' Come to find out years later that it was Charlie! Vocal stylings are crazy sometimes!
Been knowing this man and his brothers since I was a kid. My ppl grew up with his ppl in Tulsa and Okc. So good to see him blessed and see his glow up 🙏🏾💯
This makes me miss my dad. He always used to play The GAP Band and tell stories of how he used to play with them when the group came through Texas. Legendary music.
Look at the phenomenal amazing grace of God from drugs to a legend renowned singer. He looks well for 67. May God resume to triumpantly bless him in all his endeavors. A excellent honest interview!
21:35 "Im not fitna turn into the **** wedding singer" I felt that in my spirit!! Once you go down that road aint no turning around. The money get to good and somebody ALWAYS gettin married. Lolol
Say what yall want but R.KELLY was a HUGEEEEE part in reviving Charlie's career!! He wrote "First Name Charlie Last Name Wilson" & " Magic" both singles were his introduction back into the industry after his struggle with drugs. R.Kelly also produced the album "Charlie, last name Wilson".
I thought I was the only who was slick mad they left that out. As messed up as R may be he is waaaaaaaaaay more reason Charlie Wilson got his career revived then Snoop. I'd go as far to say he is THE instrument that was used to resurrect Charlie's career. Wonder why no one mentioned that on the show
@@Bepeze Cos giving R.Kelly credit is itself controversial at the moment. I saw P. DIDDY giving a speech at the Grammies and it was about how Grammies leave out people of color or the fact that they are not recognised. At the end he gave shout out to albums which were snubbed by the Grammies like Nas Illmatic. He mentioned all albums note-worthy except R.kelly's like 12 play, R. Kelly , Tp2.com and Chocolate factory.
I went to a Charlie Wilson concert in Montgomery, AL. HANDS DOWN. ONE OF THE BEST CONCERT I WENT TO. I love the dancer, and the band. Between him and Keith Sweat has the best concerts to me.
"I'm a man, I gotta take care of my family Fighting these pressures in my life I know my mind should be on shinin' and gettin' Grammy's But these streets won't say goodbye" Charley Wilson killed this hook, I love this brother forever Give him his props while he is here.
He is truly a class act!! His shows are amazing and his testimony is powerful!! We assume celebrities have the picture perfect life but behind all their success is a powerful testimony! 😇😇
I love uncle Charlie.... but I’m mad they didn’t keep him on track I wanted to hear everything from the beginning of the gap band, to how he got on drugs up to now I need a movie
@@Plashun i wanna hear it too. I think we always screaming for a movie about evrrybody and not a book. Books have longevity. He gas an autobiography. Im gonna buy it
KP what we know as Central Park I n New York City, was the New York version of black wall street. It was bombed. They don't want us to know what our grandparents and great-grands vividly remember.
Hands down one of the greatest and most distinct voices in black music EVER.
Totally 👍🏾
And you know he gotta miss those Gap Band days...... Especially with his brotha being gone
No doubt about it!

True facts
True story
Stevie wonder bro.

Charlie Wilson = Anthony Hamilton
21:35 "Im not fitna turn into the **** wedding singer"
I felt that in my spirit!! Once you go down that road aint no turning around. The money get to good and somebody ALWAYS gettin married. Lolol
J Soul crazy how I stumbled onto ur comment here 😂😂😂😂
Say what yall want but R.KELLY was a HUGEEEEE part in reviving Charlie's career!! He wrote "First Name Charlie Last Name Wilson" & " Magic" both singles were his introduction back into the industry after his struggle with drugs. R.Kelly also produced the album "Charlie, last name Wilson".
I thought I was the only who was slick mad they left that out. As messed up as R may be he is waaaaaaaaaay more reason Charlie Wilson got his career revived then Snoop. I'd go as far to say he is THE instrument that was used to resurrect Charlie's career. Wonder why no one mentioned that on the show
GAH DAMN RIGHT!!!!
@@Bepeze Cos giving R.Kelly credit is itself controversial at the moment. I saw P. DIDDY giving a speech at the Grammies and it was about how Grammies leave out people of color or the fact that they are not recognised. At the end he gave shout out to albums which were snubbed by the Grammies like Nas Illmatic. He mentioned all albums note-worthy except R.kelly's like 12 play, R. Kelly , Tp2.com and Chocolate factory.
HeardButNotSeen R KELLY is a genius !!!!
R Kelly only produced 3 songs from that album.
I went to a Charlie Wilson concert in Montgomery, AL. HANDS DOWN. ONE OF THE BEST CONCERT I WENT TO. I love the dancer, and the band. Between him and Keith Sweat has the best concerts to me.
He puts some of this young performers to shame
All I can say is “WOW” 😩🙏🏾 No doubt uncle Charlie✊🏾.. Bring him back next week.. I need these stories.. Damn, shoutout to the breakfast club ⭐️💪🏾
"I'm a man, I gotta take care of my family
Fighting these pressures in my life
I know my mind should be on shinin' and gettin' Grammy's
But these streets won't say goodbye"
Charley Wilson killed this hook, I love this brother forever
Give him his props while he is here.
“Do one of them ooowwwweesss for me muthafucka” 😂😂😂😂😂
Gotta thank R Kelly for bringing this man back to the limelight. R Kelly is the one that wrote Charlie, last name Wilson
not only wrote, he produced it to
@@zionionion4531 he produced most of that album to be honest
Snoop was the 1st, but yeah Kellz kept him up there. Truth be told Kellz does this with all the O.G.'s I.E Ronsld Isley
@@jhonram2496 he did 3 tracks
And he got him those big ass teeth
He is truly a class act!! His shows are amazing and his testimony is powerful!! We assume celebrities have the picture perfect life but behind all their success is a powerful testimony! 😇😇
@Mr Potato Head 😊😊😇
I’m so glad to be from Tulsa, Oklahoma. Tulsa’s own Charlie Wilson!❤️

@@jarellball7559 Hey! long time no see! I hope all is well.❤
Salute to the legend Charlie Wilson, Uncle Charlie is respected and very much loved & I'm glad he's getting his flowers
His wife definitely knew who he was💯💯💯💯
She definitely saw potential!!! Lovely story
@@nikki_m yes...Definitely💯
Right! I was giving the side eye with that part. A house and furniture. We need that Bio-pic movie Uncle Chalie
I love uncle Charlie.... but I’m mad they didn’t keep him on track I wanted to hear everything from the beginning of the gap band, to how he got on drugs up to now I need a movie
Idk about a movie but i would like to know. I wonder if he has an autobiography
gospelevans I’ll take anything I just want to hear his story from beginning to end
@@Plashun i wanna hear it too. I think we always screaming for a movie about evrrybody and not a book. Books have longevity. He gas an autobiography. Im gonna buy it
gospelevans well I like movies if it’s done by the actual person 🤷🏽♀️ I read as well tho
@@Plashun im a cinemaphile. I get it. But nothing beats the book usually
They rebuild Black Wall Street, and they burned it down again, did anybody catch that??
KP Yes that part of the story I never knew about. I need to research that.
@Win From Within Charli was about to say it but Char cut him off.
I never knew that they rebuilt it and then it got burnt down again what year was that
Wow ain't that some shit
KP what we know as Central Park I n New York City, was the New York version of black wall street. It was bombed. They don't want us to know what our grandparents and great-grands vividly remember.
The lesson here, when we rebuild Black Wall Street, make sure we build up our private military might as well.
I saw this man live in Chicago. He put on the best show I've ever been to. Dude puts on a killer show!
