Soul Music icon Frankie Beverly passes away at 77

[Secure Da Bag]

RIP to a legend. So much of my appreciation for music and R&B was because of his songs. The song game will never be the same.

 

[Detroit Wave]

RIP to the god

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

I was literally listening to Maze today, not just any song…

This song:

 

[Secure Da Bag]

You have to take James Earl Jones (granted he was 93) and now Frankie Beverley, but can't take any of these evil folks

The Rhapture is different, breh. It's just different.

That's one of my favorite songs. Singing- After the morning after. After the night before. When all of the fun is over. Would you not want me no more

 

[Days of Future Piff]

Song hit home when I fell out with this girl I was seeing a few years ago

They don’t make music like this anymore.


Sunday cookouts are never going to be the same. It’s crazy that we’re living through the death of black music in real time. In a few years our kids will be thinking everything began and ended with Snoop Dogg.

We gotta keep those memories of our legends alive. Frankie Beverly, Stevie Wonder, Sly Stone, Isaac Hayes, P-Funk, the Isley Brothers, Chaka Khan, Roger Troutman, Marvin Gaye, etc.

(No hate against Snoop—I’m just saying that a lot of his stuff was sampled from George Clinton/P-funk and the Gap Band.)

 

[Vice Queen]

Rest in power

 

[Samori Toure]

Rest in Peace Mr. Beverly.

 

[CrushedGroove]

Ok. This actually got my heart hurting.

 

[Richard Glidewell]
