This is back in the day when you had real musicians that could play real instruments and be able to sing without auto tune. My husband loves this song...so do I.
This song didn’t get much play but it deserved to. Ben E. King of “Stand By Me” fame? What a great song, collaboration and message. They’re all not stars in the ghetto but I am! I’m a local musical favorite! And I love it! Who’s still listening in 222?
Yes Sir Buddy, this some song is all many of us can relate to. A Star In The Ghetto, This was always was my closing my closing as a DJ to my Hy-Star Disco Club in Bimini Bahamas!!!! 621 on the waterfront, downtown facing the rising sun!!!!
To my brother Kerwin (Troy) Staton a true star of The ghetto A.k.a. BLEWFOOT🥁 The funkiest Drummer I’ll ever know! I love you, miss you; Rest In Peace🙏🏾🥁

Heard this song for the first time today..... This is when music had life in it. It's so nice to be reminded of a time when people had real talent!
I was a sophomore in high school when this song was introduced to me.
Ren is a villain
And you're just a hostage
So whenever I'm steppin'
Cover you're head like an ostrich
Could listen to this song forever and ever🙏🙏🙏❤️😎

did the black guys ever sing lead
BEN E KING, the guy bottom front of album cover.
How I wished that James Brown remade a version of this song. It would of added a deeper soul in it.
JB was soul brother #1.. This one works for me after all, I'm just a star in the ghetto.
James would have added a rawness that wasnt needed. James in 77 could have used a hit though.
