Sweet! Rick James was original player. "Give It To Me Baby" was the lead single from his 1981 album Street Songs. "Super Freak" was the second single. I was in ninth grade that year and both songs tore up the radio. That was also the era of peak jheri curls and Rick James modeled the look. Amazing to think that Rick James and Neil Young were in the same band together for a time in Toronto in the sixties.
Empress I knew you would get a kick out of this pick! 🤣🤣🤣 This video is iconic and it embodies Rick James legendary persona perfectly. Also I'm sure this song had to have people running to the dance floor in the disco's and clubs back in the day. That funk just gets the head bobbin and the body movin 🕺😂 Also good catch on the JayZ/Neptune sample used in "I'm a Hustler"! Thanks for the fun reaction!!
I like the 12 inch version because I feel like the 5 minute long version is the best but I do like the 3 and half minutes too but that 5 minute version is something else...
Sorry but i can't get the image of Dave Chappell being kicked into the mirror by Charlie Murphy out of my mind whenever i see a Rick James video. Cant stop laughing.
Yep Empress, Iconic!!! Funk and r&b Classic!!! You can’t sleep on Rick’s vocals, his pen or musicality🔥🔥🔥.

The song you were thinking 💭 of was I'm A Hustler 🎶❤️😊👍
When Prince first started, he use to open for Rick James. Rick hated that, because Prince drew more attention than him, the main act.
Good song and music tho. Didn't know about the Jay z thing until you mentioned it. Learn something new everyday. Good reaction.

I think this is the first time I've ever seen this video. I'm getting a 70's porn vibe and like we might need some penicillin 😂😂
