    As a 58 year old black man and musician, I have to make a controversial statement. Black men in 2023 (recording artists), do not sing about love and joy anymore. Period! That is so sad. I can't even think of any rapper/hip-hop artist in 2023, who's music is this joyful, positive and endearing as the O'Jays. It's not even close. Also remember that the O'Jays were "young black men" too, when this song was written and performed on Soul Train.
    It's an honor to have been an "impressionable" black teenage boy back then. All the R&B black music stars had a positive vibe and energy that shaped all of us for the better. I can't even imagine being a 14 year old black boy in 2023, and being shaped by rappers/hip-hop artists rapping about "bitches/hos/niggas". Yikes! I'll take a pass.
    In closing, this is a great memory, and the O'Jays really show how it's done here. Amazing music and performance!
    I know all you haters out there are going to come after me and say rap and hip-hop is the same "vibe" as R&B in the 70s. Wrong! Once again, it's not even close!
    Cheers, Sam.

      I m 58 too and love all those Black groups artists like O'Jays The Spinners Manhattans Temptations EWF Lionel Richie etc etc whose music and words were enjoyable...as it was for Black females groups too
      Pointer sisters Suprêmes Sister Sledge Natalie Cole Marlena Shaw etc etc.
      Now I don't see anything being at their stage....
      In the 70's I was very impressed by this music because my brother often went to the States for his job and came back with vinyls....
      And it was my turn in the late 80's I heard so much of this groups on the radios while in San Diego for my studies

    I'm a 90s baby, i know a lot of people say that the 90s is the best musical era, but this music right here was obviously before I was even born, yet it touches my soul as if I was born in this era, to me if r&b soul were a tree, the 70s would be the roots, 90s the trunk

    OK. This is going to be a tad on the weird side, but the "Shoop do, shoo do, shoop do , shoo do" is a tune I hum to myself to swing a golf club. It gives me a good tempo and keeps me from gripping the club too tightly. Told ya it was gonna be weird! Thanks, O Jays.
