He was just being Al. You know he was high and his girlfriend probably told him he looked hot with that shit on. If someone did this TODAY, he'll be joked about on blogs every day for weeks, but since a lot of people were doing weirder things, even with Al being an "R&B artist", no one hardly blinked when Al did it.

Very true, David Bowie comes to mind

tamewar said:

Exactly. I swear if Al wasn't singing soul music, he would have definitely been a glam rock artist.

This clip was in the movie"Dead Presidents",right?

The scene where Skip od's on heroin.

Timmy84 said:

They had that movie on last night, HBO or Showtime.

Even with the bizarre outfit, Al was one sexy man.

Man that's awesome. You'll never see neyoand t-grain and whatever there names are, perform w ith live musicians much less perform a song that doesn't revolve around the bar, or having sex or something like this. Lame asses.

I know... and ain't that the truth! Timmy and i spoke about this when he had a thread about Mr. Al Green. Green did sooo much interms of his phrasing that you had to listen oh so carefully because you'd miss something. I'm sure that's why his music/his singing is so powerful..you never tire of it, at least I don't.

TD3 said:

Right on. Even today, his singing can still amaze you. You saw how stupid Justin looked at the Grammys trying to compete?

Timmy84 said:

In my mother tone: BOY, go sit yo' butt down somewhere !

TD3 said:

You know that fool was trying to be a soul man. FAILED MISERABLY!

Timmy84 said:

And they had the nerve to have Boys ll Men in the background singing while Justin Lamelake in the front doing his corny stunt. Hate him!!!!!

To bad "bring back sexy" wasn't preforming at the Apollo or Regal Theater back in the day, somebody would have thrown a at his butt.

In fact, less look at the video tape shall we?

TD3 said:

Yeah he's DEFINITELY lucky someone didn't throw tomatoes at his butt. He definitely would've been booed. "The fuck you singing weak?" Al would've permitted it just by his presence but without Al, this performance would've truly stunk.

Timmy84 said:

I've witnessed someone shoe or shoes sailing throught the air at the Regal.

You can see Chris Rock or someone just mocking the shit out of him now.
