There is no way P, being the same age as MJ, not being influenced by Mike and the J5.



If you didn't like the J5 back in the days, you had no soul...


So True. I think that's how a lot of peeps were actually introduced to Soul, through the J5. They were like Soul for beginnings. lol

And you know what was so great about MJ back then? Is that he could so naturally evoke various emotions, which in his latter years he has so much difficulty in doing. The only emotion he seem to be able evoke easily nowadays is anger, everything else sounds so contrived.

I wore my big-ass J5 'fro proudly back in the day. I remember standing in front of the TV practicing their dance moves.

ABC is my personal favorite. 'The Love You Save", 'One More Chance, 'ABC', '2-4-6-8', 'The Young Folks' 'I'm the One You Need' - classic stuff.
