    No one.....sounded like Rick James...... a true Leader in music and a genius who worked very hard in rock and roll and sprouted into the Funk! His honesty is very very touching he was humbled by the crazy experience.

    it was good to see Rick Sober and doing well. Sadly a little over a year after this aired, Rick suffered a stroke and he was never really the same after that. He worked hard to come back.

    Wow, I THOROUGHLY enjoyed this. All 3 performances and the interview. This man was unbelievably talented. God bless Rick James for giving us the funk. I don't know why I never paid attention to the song with Bobby Womack. It's dope! Probably cuz I was much younger. Aww, wish Rick was still around to receive his flowers. A true legend.

It was really beautiful to see Rick James(The Original "Slick Rick" by the way) Come home and receive the love that he did from those who stayed true to him. Eddie Murphy. Keenan Ivory Wayans. Just to name a few. And believe me:You Are Truly Missed! RIH. My Brother! Peace!

    Rick was one of my best friends... He literally took care of me and taught me the Bible .. I was on drugs I thought it would be sac religious but he said baby girl God knew you were going to do drugs today, he still loves you... would you rather talk about God when your high or let the devil and all the evil in! Then there was his mischievous side from his house on Laurel Cyn and Muholland ( Mickey Rooney's old house) I heard then after he got out of Folsem Prison he gained so much weight .. he lived in Thousand Oaks Estates.. he ended dying at THE OAKWOOD APARTMENTS IN BURBANK! I HATE THE FUCKIN OAKWOODS IVE LOST SO MANY PEOPLE AT THAT PLACE!
