Singer Barry White Dies at 58
(AP) - Velvet-voiced R&B crooner Barry White, renowned for his lush baritone and carnal lyrics that oozed sex appeal on songs such as "Can't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe," died Friday morning, his manager said. White, who had suffered kidney failure from years of high blood pressure, died at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center around 9:30 a.m., said manager Ned Shankman. He was 58. White had been undergoing dialysis treatment and had been hospitalized since last September

R.I.P.

Barry White said ..."If your record company does not want you to have a number one song,you will not have a number one song.I dont care WHO you are ."

This was in response to a question on his last smash hit Practice What You Preach.

Shouldn't that be ex-manager now?

Not 2 sound crude, but Ned's out of the job just as much as Barry.


Barry was an absolute legend! His best album cover was his 1975 classic "Just Another Way to Say I Love You", a real tight close up shot of Barry's face, drenched in sweat, go to an online store and check the cover out - Fantastic!

Just showing my respects no matter the forum...the nerve of some people

Finess needs to get a life and stop being so anal on this site. Some of the comments/remarks Finess makes are so cold and uppity. Leave people the fuck alone and stop trying to tell us what we do wrong on this site. Barry White was one of the greatest crooners. He will be missed by many.

bzzzt! wrong!


sure thing, but why this thread wuz started in this forum is beyond me. there are two other posts in the non-p forum on this same subject, why start another one over here? this is why we have separate forums, ya'll...

RIP Barry White. This is truly sad. My condolences to his loved ones.

Is may be the wrong forum and there might be other threads about this loss elsewhere, but this is the first I'm seeing of it.

I was surprised and saddened......I wasn't into his music like that, but may he find joy and peace in rest. God Bless...
