Really? No one should be surprised but isnt he old and sick enough to not get busted with something like cocaine? Sometimes you just cant have any patience with your favorite icons when they get to this point and still can't do something right. He seriously blew that Grammy appearance a few years ago - a huge opportunity - and disappointed so many who were still pulling for him. Now this. God bless him.

Wrong forum.

If Mike Melvoin is an associated artist, I figured Sly could be as well

Link to Sly's 'not guilty' plea:

IMHO, I think his work with Jesse gives him a pass to the 'Associated'.

Right - and even more so, perhaps, the link between Larry Graham (who, for you youngsters, was in Sly and the Family Stone) and Prince.

Throw in how much Prince covers Sly's music, he damn near gets a co-producing credit for Prince's live act since the late 90s.

Yeah, I'd say he's an associated artist.

Noticed that the article said "live-in van"

Is he living in a van? I hope it's not down by the river.

It's the other way around! Prince is a Sly Stone associated artist!
