I love me some Willie Hutch. His voice is so smooth and unmatched. There is no one comparable to him and I don't think we will ever get anyone nowhere close
December 6th: Happy birthday R&B/Soul/Funk Singer/songwriter/musician William McKinley Hutchinson / Willie Hutch (1944-2005) Thank you and God bless. RIP....Thank you, Cush313 for the upload of this classic, and the video....NGO....Never Gets Old; my Monday Mixer / We'll See on FB playlist....blessings....#keeprockin'.....
Music use to be a symphonic production coupled with the smooth. Just immerse yourself in the waves of the background and the soulful vocals of the group
In 1970 as a people and black nation we were on the rise of being independent Hollywood came in and made us begin to worship movies like Superfly the Mack this is when we begin to lose respect for our nation our women and our brotherhood and sisterhood now everybody has everything and we have nothing come on black man and woman let's rise again and take our rightful place
.....they call him slick.....he's full of tricks.... Back in the days before credit cards and loans were extended to the blacks. Some of us had to hustle to survive. Tough life for a brother back then. But guess what , a sister would still stay with her man , even if he came home fired from his job or lost big time in a craps game. They still fussed with each other but never divorced. A lot of black families functioned like that. This was before feminism was introduced to the sistren. Owell... ...if he don't get you today he'll get you tomorrow....slick.....
YOU are PRECIOUS and I love you for saying that... I Only wish there were more like you from your generation, It is Hard to watch this current Generation. when we passed the baton not many would have envisioned the ungrateful ugliness and utter Destruction of our legacies, and that WHY we are right back where we started again.
Go back to the library and read about slow to speak and by then it surely will be CHRISTMAS. JUST KEEPING IT 100... LOL I AM NOT SURE WHO I AM CHATTING TO EXCEPT MYSELF BECAUSE I'M RETIRED AND I DON'T HAVE ANY ISSUES OR REASONS TO BE PLAYING SESAME STREET GAMES WITH KIDS.

+MGTOW Bro You're so correct my brother. I lived it back in that day...
Yes yes brother. We knew how to stay together then when things were tough. All we had was each other.
Oh yeah...u knew if your man said he had to go take care some business, u knew he wasn't talkin bout a j.o.b, but we sistas hung in no matter what.
Those of us who were children back then, thank you for hanging tough when things were hard.
YOU are PRECIOUS and I love you for saying that... I Only wish there were more like you from your generation, It is Hard to watch this current Generation. when we passed the baton not many would have envisioned the ungrateful ugliness and utter Destruction of our legacies, and that WHY we are right back where we started again.
