Larry Smith. Period. He deserves all the flowers. Rest in Peace 🐐
Dr. Dre told Ice Cube and Mike Epps that Larry Smith is the GREATEST HIP-HOP PRODUCER of all time, explaining how he inspired an ENTIRE GENERATION but never got the recognition he deserved, while also giving Sylvia Robinson her flowers for her impact on hip-hop 👏🔥

PrinceがRolling Stonesの前座で大ブーイングを受けたのは有名なんだが。確かに両方が好きという人はあまり知らないかも。これはPrinceがMiss Youを歌う貴重な映像。ギターはRon Wood。Princeのギターを持っとるね😅

For the new Truth Hurts, I spoke to Dâm-Funk about playing keyboards on Westside Connection's "Let It Rain," collaborating with Snoop on 7 Days of Funk, his vision for modern funk, the influence of Prince and Junie Morrison, the origins of the Funkmosphere parties, funk's re-emergence in contemporary pop, and why staying true to the music has always mattered more to him than chasing fame. One of my favorite episodes we've done. youtube.com/watch?v=F8BLEL6Y… @DaMFunK

NAME THAT FAVORITE TRACK! On this day in 1979, Prince released his 2nd album, the self titled Prince. The album produced five singles, I Wanna Be Your Lover, Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad?, Still Waiting, Sexy Dancer, and Bambi. Initially, I Wanna Be Your Lover and I Feel For You were written for Patrice Rushen who was working on her own album at the time. She declined the songs. Although years later, Chaka Khan would record I Feel For You to great chart success. The album is Prince on all vocals and instruments although Prince did acknowledge that Andre Cymone provided background vocals on Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad. Additionally, Andre and Bobby Z were credited as "heaven sent helpers" in the credits leaving many to wonder if there were more uncredited contributions. NAME that track! I'll go first. SO many great songs here, but something about When We're Dancing Close And Slow that is super haunting. Very cool chord structures. But this album is fire front to back. I Wanna Be Your Lover (5:47) Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad? (3:49) Sexy Dancer (4:18) When We’re Dancing Close And Slow (5:18) With You (3:59) Bambi (4:22) Still Waiting (4:14) I Feel For You (3:24) It’s Gonna Be Lonely (5:26)
