Michael Bland Calls Out Questlove For Throwing Shade To The NPG

https://fb.watch/vfOzWX-sZO/

Michael Bland gave an interview on Funkatopia where he breaks down each track from the LOVE SYMBOL album. The interviewer brought up Questlove and Michael Bland takes Questlove to task for not respecting the New Power Generation's musicianship on Prince's recordings and live shows in the 1990s. Even mentioning a private conversation where Questlove with D'angelo praised Bland's drum fill on "I Hate U" past the bar line, but questioning Questlove's observation that he realized the NPG was a good band after watching GLAM SLAM '92. This is a fascinating discussion that lasted for 15 minutes.

I would love to see an actual drum-off.

That should settle it.


BTW

Thanks for the hyperlink thumbs up!
