i'm ? the ? off y'all.
long story short! i'm in the Pac "Making Of Makaveli" Thread, by Menace fresh of the Ban list. Good Read By The Way.
One thing lead to another, i'm at the rolling stones web site, browsing thru the top 100 artist / singers /guitarist of all times .
Then it hit me that RICK MUTHAFUCKIN JAMES ain't in none of the 3, i'm like yo.
Rick is one of the wildest, rawest, dopest song writer, vocalist, guitarist of all times. dude music is flawless, his vocals POWERFUL, CAPTIVATING .
we not even gonna mention dude was swagging on 850,000 by default.
This ? is a smack 2 my face, and Rick James Legacy, like what the ? is this ?

type smoothFor some reason they took moonchild off youtube but check this version out. For those who hate 50 Cent, James starts after 1:00 . One of my favorite tracks from the Legendary Rick James.

Such a shame he died a punchline

those lists are political too
and it also depends on who is making money off of the artist,
no one owned Rick. -
Such a shame he died a punchline
At least he died remembered though and not forgotten like so many other great artist have...he made some great music though every time I hear this song I just wanna start grooving

Cosign thread
*APPRECIATES* -
YO last month i was thinking of making a RICK JAMES thread that would go in depth on the king of funk, on how RICK JAMES is one of the last greats in black music....when you mention SAM COOKE, JAMES BROWN, MILES DAVIS, STEVIE WONDER, PRINCE, MIKE JAX, ect..... you better mention Rick James, the man who was given 5 million dollars from Berry Gordy for his pen game, the Man who kept Motown on top in the late 70's and early 80's, the man who brought The Temptations and Smokey Robinson back, the man who is one of the greatest vocalist, bandleader, guitarist, of all times. And the man who prince studied, Rick James kept it black too, when everybody was going the white route, Prince, Lionel Richie, whitney houston, kool and the gang, aretha franklin, Luther Vandross and many others in the 80's..Rick James kept in black he was dark skinned and had his braids and didnt change from ? .
Hopefully when i get home from traveling go through some notes, i can give RICK JAMES a proper in depth look like i did for the SWING MOB CREW -
