G.A.P. Band = Greenwood, Archer and Pine, and the location of "Black Wall Street" & the title is a double entendre. I was an adult before I learned about how historically bold this song is!
Oh, this most definitely is a shoulder shimmying type of song. When the beat dropped, and Shawny got that look....I knew we were in for shoulder movement😂💯🔥🔥🔥 Another great hit from them is "Early In The Morning".
Classic joint from a legendary funk/r&b band.

Love The Gap Band! And Uncle Charlie STILL sounds as good as he does here, saw him when he toured with New Edition and Jodeci last year. Gave em all a run for their money for sure!
Shawny I love when you react to the older songs. Here are a couple of fun facts you can now learn and put in your memory (if you didn't alway know). Firstly, The "GAP Band is an acronym for Greenwood, Archer & Pine streets where they're from in Oklahoma. Secondly, the title "You Dropped a Bomb on Me," is used as a double entendre (dual meaning). The first, I'm sure you got, the girl was fine, powerful and "turned him out," but the second meaning was a reference to their hometown of "Black Wall Street!" Where a racist White mob burned, flew planes over and dropped "bombs" on the Black community out of jealousy. The town was completely destroyed. An ingenious way to use a song, huh?
Every time I watch this video I'm reminded that my crush on young Charlie Wilson is everlasting. Before my time, but these recordings are forever! Please react to The Gap Band - "Early in the Morning" and "Outstanding."
Used to hear this all the time at the local roller rink in the 80s and 90s, heck it's probably popular at the roller rink today. React to, Herbie Hancock - Rockit It was a big break dancing song
One of my favorite 1980s tunes.
Get it boy 🥰 I love how u feelin it ❤
