And to think this was when I really started listening to the radio for myself. And they repeated the same 20 or so songs all day long until the Quiet Storm show came on at night. I miss those days, but goodbye as well. :) I'm so glad you enjoyed my whole series brotha!!!
Kevin- Thanks for posting this ...it was about this time I stopped listening to the radio yet ....the music still came through as you said ....some good.. some so-so...Cd's hit and I stopped listening to the radio because everytime I tuned into a station it had changed format and became country- western , pop, top 40 or Hip Hop. I just gave up and asked my music lover friends what was hot ?....thanks so much for providing such depth to your 50th Motown series ...with much respect!!
OMG YES, that first album was EVERYTHING!!!!!!! So glad you enjoyed this man.
Those are 2 of my faves, especially 702. Thanks T!!!
Thanks so much!!! I don't think there's really a need for me to do a behind the scenes vid for Motown, and I could NEVER compare labels with each other cuz they were all distinctive & added their own unique things to the music industry. And yes I did an 80's Motown vid, but remember, I ONLY spotlight the more rare & obscure songs & artists with a few lesser known songs by the popular ones on these & all of the music vids I do!!! I'll send the 80's vid.
Oh yeah, Motown ended up being just another label like all the other ones, so much for musical evolution. Thanks so much!!!
I LOVE Zhane... especially that first album.
Thanks so much for this series!
GREAT VID...MY DAD LUVS ALL OF THESE SONGZ...MY DAD IS A BIG FAN OF MOTWON AND THERFORE OUR WHOLE FAMILY IS FOORCED TO LISTEN TO HIS MUZIK WHEN WE ARE ALL IN ONE CAR!!! LOLZ...BUT IVE COME TO LOVE IT!!! AS ALWAYS GR8! KEEP EM COMING!
Dang bro you brought back the jams. I gotta look back at your other videos. Keep up the music bro!
Donnie is so underrated. When I heard the album Colored Section I fell in love immediately.
Yes Grenique! do doooo... do doooo. You did your thing with Motown, sir...and I enjoyed. Love u much. And hey brotha-in-law!
I jammed through this whole video Yes and Thank you for sharing your knowledge. They really need to hire you!
Yes dude this is a good way to sum up the series. I knew a lot of the tracks that were there as Dyvon said that Grenique album was the business.
Now that's what's up, you didn't even have to hear a sample in a new song to find these songs, that's how it should done!!! Great job on those 2 & keep searching!!!
Great job ! I truly enjoyed this video. I agree with you on the comment that Motown was not worth listening to after a certain time. Keep up the great work. I love you, man !
That was a great soundtrack, but then again, EVERYTHING Stevie does is wonderful!!! Did you know that that Whitehead Brothers are the sons of John Whitehead of McFadden & Whitehead who made "Ain't No Stopping Us Now"?
Love the vid, but you forgot about '90s GEMS! Shanice ("I Love Your Smile"), The Boys ("Crazy"), MC Trouble ("Make You Mine"), Queen Latifah ("UNITY"), Another Bad Creation ("Iesha"), Milira ("Go Outside In the Rain"), Erykah Badu, India Arie, MC Brains ("Oochie Coochie"), the Good Girls...I could go on and on. Motown was kicking it out in the '90s, under the radar!
Hey bro! I forget about the Whitehead Bros. LOL Thanks for the memories! The Jungle Fever Soundtrack reminds me of the summer of 1991 when I saw the movie and spent the summer in Michigan and Canada with my aunt and uncle. Those were the days..... LOL They played that soundtrack in their car each time we got in it. LOL My fav song was 'Chemical Love.'
Thanks for much man, glad you enjoyed this!!!
THANK YOU FOR ANOTHER EXCELLENT VIDEO!
Bravo Kev. Thanks for breaking down the Motown story. I hated how it was passed around to the big companies like old underwear. BLAH
Oh yes, Grenique gave me what I needed with that album. Love you too quad!!! :)
@sickvokals Yeah, but in all the music vids that I do, I always show the rare & obscure artists & their songs cuz we can easily get our hands on the hits & the popular stuff. Glad you understood cuz some didn't at first like you did. My subscribers know how I get down, that's why I have to explain cuz vids like this get past them & out to the masses & they won't get me. Thanks man!!!
Now that's rather interesting!!! LOL Amazing what kind of memories a song can bring.
Yes sis, come on new music entries!!! LOL Glad you enjoyed this one!!!
Thanks Sean, I know what you mean. But at least the people who have it now are doing a decent job with the catalog so far. I just wish they would do better with re-releasing tose original albums so we could get those great album tracks.
@sickvokals Thanks so much, but you missed the point of this video. What I was trying to do was showcase the more rare & obscure songs & artists that recorded for Motown during the later years, but I sprinkled some of the popular artists in just for a reminder that they were on the label too. I never forget the major artists, I just give all the underdogs their shine. I just like to focus on stuff you hardly ever hear about, the ones you mentioned are very easy to find.
Thanks quad, it would be nice, but hey, only you guys wanna hear me. But let me do a whole vid on you-know-who!!! :)
Your welcome, glad you enjoyed this.
Well your pops has great taste in music then!!! LOL Thanks so much!!!
@VenessaVB I like her, but Motown, sadly, isn't even a label by itself anymore, it's now Universal/Motown, just making her an artist signed to the Universal Music Group (UMG).
I felt the same way, but I also knew he wasn't gonna be big, he's to real & deep for the average music fan. Lucky us tho!!! LOL
yahz for Zhane.... I lived for that soprano.... Whitehead. wow. Turning point sonds familiar to me. Grenique was dope to me. whatever happened to Lathun?? Donnie slayed. Dupri screwed up Trina B...
@thruthealcove
Agreed! Stevie is a genius!
And no...I didn't know the Whitehead Bros are sons of the guy who sang that song! I used to love, "Ain't No Stopping Us Now" when I was a kid. It reminds me of Christmas of 1980 when I met the FIRST white guy who I (at the time) believed was the "real" Santa Claus. LOL I think about that "Santa" everytime I hear that song.
Oh, I thought u had a video already for the "B sides & rareties". I thought it was a video about Motown "From the 90's all the way up to today" (0:49-0:51) But, I got u!
Brotha, I'm with you. Being a stanch Stevie fan, NOT A STAN, I feel you, but I know others who will beg to differ in a New York minute!!! LOL Let's keep our agreement between us dude!!! LOL
Oh yes, I knew that would grab somebody's attention. Imagine my surprise when I saw she was on Motown. Wonder whatever happened to her.
You see? This is why I do these vids!!!
Thanks Quad, I knew you would like this!!!
Ooo you all late on my vids man!!! LOL Thanks dude!!!
Oh yeah, Donnie is the man!!!
Man, Dupri & Motown screwed up with Trina, a damn shame. You know Zhane gave life to all!!! LOL
@thruthealcove Melanie Fiona - It Kills Me.... that song is one of my faviourts shes on Motown
I think in 2005 they stopped using it.
