So glad to hear from the great Steve Arrington!!😊 Slave was and is one of the greatest groups in history👏👏 take it from the Midwest,y'all STILL make us "Weak in the knees"...baby!!😂😂
thanx for the shoutout, homes, you always give props where they are due
I am so feeling this interview. He likes all the groups and people i like, "YES and James Taylor. David Bowie even said Prince was the only artist who played what he wanted. Deep interview.
I was honored to hear Steve change his style as he mentioned in this video, he went from funk to praise and worship. He was on a journey and was fought every day it seemed by church leaders, wanting it to sound like white peoples music. Ya cant change what`s in you so a friend he had back in the day told him to write what the Good Lord is giving you. He did just that and wrote a song call Go tell the World. And so many others. Any way these three video`s represent the true Steve Arrington, there is nothing fake about anything he says on these three video`s . If it seems that Steve is quiet down to earth its that way because he truly is.

I Didn't Know That Mark Hicks Passed Away. He Was The Eddie Hazel Of Slave In My Opinion. Another Dope Interview Scott.
I'd like to know how does the Slave song "Watching You" become an Odyssey song "Inside Out" and who got paid off that?
