I think sly just burnt out early
I can’t imagine making disco music or early 80s synth-funk

Not to mention he literally wrote and produced everything by himself

Yeah he did and the pressure from everything had him just be like “peace, I’m out and just living my life how I see fit and not in this celebrity bubble”

Sly is a hippie at heart who marches to the beat of his own drum and follows his heart


Yeah, the disco scene wasn’t him at all


Right?


Here’s some unreleased 80’s music from him

He was still funky as ever

Timing is funny

I'm reading George Clinton's book right now:wow:

Once you finish with that, you should check out Sly’s book
