Mr. Smokey Robinson, is simply the best!! We love you!!

[@ebillie1181]

I could listen to him sing and speak 24. And at 80+ looking sooo good!

[@jillsalkin7389]

Smokey! I had the thrill and delight of seeing Smokey perform in Atlantic City, and meeting him after the show! Unforgettable to meet a Motown legend!

[@tedtimothy9074]

Detroit is the home town of so many great celebrities

[@NellieKAdaba]

[@maryexstroughtonaire4244]

He and Aretha were neighbors in Detroit.

[@ritamoore6750]

Smokey is truly Wonderful

[@michellehanson7866]

I hope they make a movie about this legendary singer the movie should just simply say "SMOKEY" and the intro should be "Whats its all about" ....from his agony and ecstasy song

[@m.layfette6249]

I'm LOVING IT!! 💗🔥💗🔥

[@annebalderston2520]

Faith and obedience to God is first.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@edwincancelii2917]

He should do a duet or a collaboration with Billy Griffin, also from the Miracles.

[@m.layfette6249]

In the words of Sherri Shepherd, "If you don't know ask ya Mamma." 😂🤭

Nice❤

[@cinematicmoviedude]

Terrence Howard would be a great choice for playing him

[@cinematicmoviedude]

Always thought him Smokey and Ice-T resemble each other

[@AngeBiampandou]

@@cinematicmoviedude Ice T doesn't have the look to me. Terrance Howard or Jesse Williams is a better fit

[@RealMusicHype]

Great stuff We'd love to feature you on our music blog!

[@cousinmartin]

The guy from The Oval, Lodric D. Collins, should continue to play Smokey Robinson. Lodric D. Collins played Smokey Robinson in the movie RESPECT. Lodric D. Collins is an great actor and should continue to play Smokey Robinson.

[@deacondavis5098]

Terrence Howard hands down!!!

[@plasticvideo]

Donald Glover might be a good choice for the biopic

[@coloursfilm]

Kendrick Sampson could play young Smokey, and Terrence Howard could player older Smokey.

[@fantacrawford8364]

Sure your right.
