Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 жов 2013
- It's been a while!
Up to now I have only uploaded tracks that didn't appear anywhere else on YT.
For No. 16 of my favourite all time Soul records I've chosen a track that is on here a lot - but I have always thought it needed to be longer! - couldn't quite get it up to 10 mins but not that far short!
Enjoy!
IT'S IT'S JULY 2024 AND I AM STILL RISING TO THE TOP !!! HOT SUMMER AND HOT JAM !!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
MY COUSIN IS A BAD MAN THIS IS A CLASSIC AND WILL LIVE ON FOREVER AND BEEN SAMPLED BY MANY ARTISTS.
INDEED...THIS IS A CHI-CITY STEPPERS CLASSIC! 💚💚💚

Take me back to NYC in the 80’s.
True Queens NY song anyone rolling in the 80's knows this!
Take me back to New Brunswick N.J
This is a bad jam and so underrated.
Back when music was music, not all this noise of today.
Old school is the best school brother 😎

Or a Mercedes-Benz SL R107
Yes indeed bro.

OLD CLASSIC WITH MUCH PASSION!!!
Yes. Let keep rising to the top and dont look back. Stay positive
Nice to here again. The golden days - back in the olden days.
We ate this song up at the disco fever in the Bronx back in the 80s.
Have we somehow evolved as a race that we don't, or can't write music like this anymore?
No, Our Music 🎶🎼🎶 Had Meaning, Experience, Love and Pain! Now this Shit, Excuse My Language Has No Depth, Broken English, No Heart or Education, Just Lost Uninspired and They ain't Looking for Love, Marriage is a Chess Game! Where is the Pain in a Songs? Voice Makeovers is Not Singing! I'm Just Done with this New Crap! Y'all Can Have It! I'll Stay Right Here With My KIND❤
The power that be, don't want you to listen to this. They want you listening to kill someone or call a woman a dog. Back in the day, you bought an album, and you could listen to both sides and find hits, not this one and done bull.
Perhaps ?.......................what song have you written ?
when i am depressed or in a mood....
when in doubt...KENI BURKE
thank you
I needed this 👍🏾💥💥💥💥💥🎚
In the world of music there are no Classic's... We Just know Timeless music!
I REMEMBER THIS SONG BACK IN THE DAY
They dont make this kind of music anymore.
No they don't...blame today's generations
They can't even keep their pants up nowadays lol
loved this song in the '80's and love it just as much now.

This is why we all love these old songs, as there is nothing around these days to compare with them. We love the memories associated with these old classics. The days of my youth really were better, I just didn’t know it then.

Love this extended version.
Thank you Thank you Thank you for sharing one of Keni B's most beautiful creations. Truly elevates and uplifts ❤💃🏽❤💃🏽❤💃🏽
This is ultra classic. 💯😎👍🏾
Listen to Keni when he shared lead on the song "Ooh Chile" as a teenager with his family group, The Five Stairsteps. A little bit of music trivia. He and his brothers also renamed themselves the Invisible Man's Band, and released their 1980 hit "All Night Thing". Check it out! Ciao!!!
This tune is a funk dancers delight at night, when all is right with the world!!!!
Skaters Lament...Those who really skated know what I mean...Bassline just funky
Totally classic song.....loving this real soulful instrumental..........
Ultra Smooth perfect for a çruise down Sunset!!
Give it all you got
Ain't no half stepping
Amazing song...timeless!
This one is for you, Marcia ❤! Thank you for schooling us about what was really going down musically❤.
Great jam! Brings back so many memories. Had to go out to the garage and jam this in my Corvette! I’m rocking this tomorrow (Friday) 👊🏽🤩
Anyone else here after the Supreme Team Documentary, 2022...Still rockin.
I Just realized this is Keni Burke from the five stairsteps (Ooh Child).
Those who leverage your efforts on their way up will one day look up. Keep Rising to the Top! Give It All You Got!
For those who didn't or don't know, keni Burke was a member of the group of the five staircase (ohhh child) back in the 1970s
I feel sorry for the youth of today bekawz, they have NO GOOD MUSIC TO LISTEN OR DANCE TO!
Where are the 2day's R & B Singers, Groups & Bands?
How is it that what passess for hip hop now had come so far and away from what came B4 it?
Hip Hop of former times was conscious, fun & also danceable, no hip hop music from these new jack groups like that exist 2day.
#WENEEDAREALGOODMUSICREVIVAL!
