Gonna have to say Hall&Oates, Michael McDonald/Doobies, BeeGees. And Rare Earth, wow, forgot all about them, they were so big when I was in college, but their "sound" most definitely could fit the bill here.

I think Rare Earth was originally out of Detroit and signed with Motown. Their sound was one that when you heard a few bars, you knew it was Rare Earth. Some of their music included some Temps songs. How could anyone forget "Get Ready", "I'm Losing You", and "I Just Want to Celebrate". They definitely put their "touch" on those songs and I can still hear them now in my head. Good memories for me-

"wake me up before you go go"
:dance: :lol:

love that song!

 

[Superstition]

Elton John's become increasingly more sampled and featured in hip-hop and R&B since the new millenium.

Phil Collins has been sampled in a few songs I've heard and I've got a lot of family (black) and friends (also black) who rock out to him.

 

[144000]

i would have to say eminem

 

[Yeezy]

Cant believe it took 3 pages for someone to say EMINEM!!!

LEGEND!

 

[Superstition]

Actually, I said Eminem on post 6 of this thread on the first page. He's the first one who sprung to mind. Love him or hate him, he's a major crossover act.

 

[DuranDuran]

Chicago in the 1970s, but not the 80s power ballad era, lol. Maybe Dusty Springfield & Janis Joplin.

I remember reading somewhere that Eminem was a huge PHENOMENON. How huge he was? I'm not a fan of rap but I admit some of his songs are damn catchy :lol: :lol:

isn't it amazing...the power of music?

you can say you are not a fan of something..yet something in that something catches your fancy.

i believe that is true with a lot of people..lol

 

[DuranDuran]

lol,,,some of those acts are not all white..

Like KC and the Sunshine Band? I menetioned that it was a black band with a white singer on the 1st page. I'm aware that some of the others have the one black guy, lol. KC & the Sunshine Band were kinda like Blondie, Jamiroquai, and Sade. They're bands, but the singer is the one in most of the pictures and promotional material. Like them, a lot of people think the singer (Debbie Harry, Jay Kay, Sade Adu, KC) IS the band, lol. Like people here talking about Boy George when there are 3 other guys in the band.

 

[MJsPYT1]

So I definitely have to say Teena Marie!!!!

And Lisa Stansfield, Bee Gees, Hall and Oates...
