Slammin 80's cut of the day!

Talk to me by Chico DeBarge! This is a lost classic but I rediscovered it by listening to their GH CD this morning. That shit is tight! Nice groove on that.

DeBarge were a pretty good group huh? They had some nice songs...

I like it
Rhythm of the night
Time will reveal
All this love
A dream
Stay with me

Hell yeah. That's back when Chico could throwdown! Too bad he sold out to bullshit shit hop in the 1990s.

He had another funky jam in the late 1980s called "Baby I've Been Watching You".

I think that song (and album) was produced by BrownMark.It's got that synth-heavy Minneapolis funk sound.

home boy was seriously rocking that s curl! i'm sure he's a bit embarrassed by that now since he has such a different image now. you are so right about that song sounding like janet's. i never noticed it before.
