    I was still a kid when everyone was calling him the bad boy of RnB. But by todays standards? Bobby would be a Choir boy in comparisson to R. Kelly and P. Diddy

    it baffles me that people watch the lifetime biopic movie about him and rush to his defence... meanwhile they've never done the real research to know bobby has a track history of lying.............

    The only thing that made him attractive was his dance moves and his singing. Other than that, he was actually a very unattractive scrawny 14 yr old looking kid with a pretentious and cocky personality. Definitely someone any mother would keep their child away from.

    Larry Graham is the inventor of the thump base style. and no one else can say it. he’s been doing that since the 60s. The rest of those people started in the 70s and Larry hasn’t gotten his just do about it. they should appreciate this man while he’s here. That funk music has influence practically all the music that we listen to today from hip-hop. as far The music of hip-hop that strong deep thump comes from funk. All the dance music from disco and especially club music. Club music comes from the dance music that Black people used to listen to and that was funk music that we used to dance to. James Brown came up with the funky beat and Larry put it into bass music. the base in reggae, Larry Graham’s base, it was around before the deep base of reggae and anything else with a deep bass in it

    Take note...THIS WAS WAY BEFORE WHITNEY WAS IN HIS LIFE!!! Funny how he's changed the narrative since her transition to say that she was the one who introduced it to him and got him hooked

    I totally dig Larry Grahm, Sly & The Family Stone, "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)", "Pow" etc. Larry is the reason why funk bass sounds so cool and this video perfectly sums up his story on his invention of thumpin and pluckin the electric bass which everyone else calls "slap bass"! LOVE this video, I wish I can hit the thumbs up twice or more for this video, I would thump and pluck that thumbs up button hundreds of times for this awesome video!!!

    He is phenomenal on the bass , Tommy Cogbill would put Vaseline on his plucking fingers so the bass would sound like it was bouncing ! You hear that on Aretha Franklin records like, Respect, Chain If Fool, Think, Since you’ve been gone !
