[TEH]

Maybe an 8

Maybe a little higher

When they hit its incredible

But some of their songs to be honest personally speaking make me nauseous

 

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

The dancing on this shyt iS

shyt is smoove as fukk




GAVE EM AN 8

They could play instruments, had soulful and funky music at the sametime

EDIT: is that Robert townsend on the keys?


This song funky as fukk

 

[young3000]

Legends and they don't get talked about enough. And they play instruments

 

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

shyt all the instruments they could play and the production on those albums was

"And you can new jack swaaaang on ma nuts"

Always liked how they sorta made fun of themselves on that and flipped what was a diss towards their genre of music and turned it into a dope song.

 

[I love Latina women]

8. Incredible

 

[Archangel]

I give them a 7. Didn't discover them till around 05. But I remember Feels Good, Anniversary and Never Rains in SoCal being played by my mom when I was a kid. So when I rediscovered them, I gained a new found appreciation for their sound. They were different. As a musician myself, I could tell they were very well learned in other classical, foreign styles of music like salsa, bolero, jazz etc. I loved that they utilized samples, and styles from past greats like Sly and the Family Stone & James Brown. They were very creative.

Only one good album though and I wouldn't consider it a classic. I could never listen to an album from them all the way through. Feels Good & Anniversary are certified classic status though. Raphael is one of the coldest producer/songwriters this century too.

 

[8WON6]

8. Knocked off a couple points because their lead wasn't all that. Raphael was always just good enough. But they are another group that has been sample to death. They have a legendary catalog. Alot of timeless music.

And i never knew "Lay Your Head on My Pillow" was about eating p*ssy until a few years ago.

 

[Rev Leon Lonnie Love]

their singing ability left a lot to be desired. i'll give em a 7

 

[Rhapscallion Démone]

I'll give them a 8

 

[Sbp]

8 some of their songs are in my current rotation

 

[BmoreGorilla]

Very talented group. Maybe not the best vocalists around but they had their own signature sound and Raaphael has a very distinctive voice. Plus they are some go tos on any slow jam playlist. 7
