Willie Hutch appreciation

Talk about overlooked.....This cat had to be one of the baddest, most under appreciated artists/musicians of our time. His work is very authentic. I still searchin' for his version of "I wanna be where u are". I mean would the films "the Mack" and "Foxy Brown" be classic w/o his music? No.

I def agree about the music commentary nod



Not to take anything away from these movies,,,but his score added a flava to the storyline just like what Curtis Mayfield did to Claudine, Superfly, Lets Do It Again and Sparkle.

I think he shined more through producing other people like The Jackson 5(I'll Be There), Marvin Gaye(I'll Give You Respect) and other folks.
