    I played guitar for Willie the last ten years of his life. While he managed to only work 2/3 times a year, it was my pleasure, and honor to work for him.

    I love Willie Hutch, I met him in Rochester N.Y 1998 such a kind man with a great stature. He was an under rated composer, musician with a velvet voice. I had the pleasure of seeing him perform twice it was awesome. As you can see I am a big fan of Willie Hutch, this will help his work to be exposed to the people who never heard of him.

    I'm 41 years old and I've always loved Willie Hutch and his music!!! I've always said that he was greatly underrated and unappreciated to a certain degree. To me he's in the same class with the greats such as Curtis Mayfield, Issac Hayes, James Brown, Barry White, Stevie Wonder....I could go on!! I really hope they do a big biographical movie on him still because he most certainly and greatly deserves it!!!! R.I.P. to the late great Mr. Willie Hutch and much love and respect to his family!

    “I choose you” was his signature song as a former D.J. and “ Party Down”. You didn’t mention neither of those songs. I was only 12 when “The Mack” album came out and it was very popular in my city in Illinois. I am surprised it didn’t rate higher than it did. “ I choose you” was on their and “Slick”, an instrumental I love called I believe “The Chase”.

    My top 3 Willie Hutch joints that aren’t already listed are: 1) I wanted to be a Rock n Roll Star 2) I Can Sho Give u Love 3) Overture of Foxy Brown. Willie Hutch was an orchestral master and deserves a full documentary honoring his work and insights on his legacy. I remember his daughter sung at one time. I had her single about ten years ago. She had a beautiful voice 🧡 I am 27 years old but grew up on Willie’s music. I have most of his records. My fav composer

They went on to become outstanding producers/arrangers/collaborators in their own right.

    His nephew is possibly one of the CREATORS of the G-Funk Era of Rap. He goes by Cold 187um aka Big Hutch with the group Above the Law (A.T.L.).
    He certainly has the bloodline of Willie Hutch. He's very Underrated as a producer and in certain terms, the group has went under the radar in some ways too

    I met him when he did the soundtrack for The Mack, which I believe was Richard Pryor's first movies. My cousin David T. Walker was one of the studio musicians. The movie was about The Ward Brothers, Oakland Pimps, one of which was Willie. Willie helped finance the movie and appeared in a few scenes. Doing the making of the movie, the had to hurriedly shift the movie out of Oakland, down to L.A., because Willie was killed. They still got it down.
    I hope he got paid for all his work. Back in the early days, many writers and artist either didn't get paid, or didn't receive anywhere what they were due, and the color of the money distributor didn't matter.

    My comments are respectful but I have to say how disappointed I am that you just glossed over his Album for The Mack movie. This is the soundtrack that made him known and famous in the 70s. I Choose You, Brothers Gonna Work it Out was heavily played in our black community. Its nice knowing that he worked with The 5th Dimension and of course The hits with the Jackson 5 but I'd never heard any of his songs for the Dimensions and I was a fan. So please showcase his music from the movie the Mack. This is why my friends and I came to know and love Willie Hutch.

    The GREAT Willie Hutch, is probably the MOST unsung of all the producer, arrangers, writers, and artists on the Motown label. His contributions to 60's and 70's r&b should rank among the most celebrated musical individuals that created a certain sound.

    I love the song "I Choose You, Baby" from the movie "The Mack" when Goldie is in bed with his woman and he's macking those player's lines " Baby I can give you the world, I can give you jewelry, furs anything you want" and that song is playing in the background.

    Willie Hutch is stil one of my favorite Artist, and underrated. I was exposed to his music when I was 14. I dug: Bother we Can Work it Out and I Chose You from Mack soundtrack. From Concert in Blues: Come on Home and his version of Stormy Weather, just to name a few. You can hear the piano intro of. "Come on Home" on Ghostface Killa featuring Ne Yo " Back Like That" track.

    Since you asked, my favorite Willie Hutch songs (in no particular order): "I'll Be There" (courtesy the Jacksons), "Brothers Gonna Work It Out" (nod to the big homie Dr. Dre), and "In And Out". Will give Keep On Jammin' a listen, thanks for the tip!
