    No one has felt more pressure than the horn and rhythm sections that had to come in after that solo and close the song out without messing up the take.

      Funny you say that, because Cory himself said this was not the take he would’ve chosen for the final cut if he was the producer. One of the greatest keys solos in recent memory wasn’t even the best take for those recording sessions to the artist himself lol

    It's obviously an amazing solo by Cory, but we have to give credit to Larnell as well. The drums added so much energy to the solo.
