MISSING IN ACTION >>> Nathan Leftenant, Arnett Leftenant, Greg Johnson, Jeryl Bright and Charlie Singleton. The late great Wayne Cooper should have been mentioned. BTW - Brick, Mother's Finest and the SOS Band were kicking it in Atlanta long before Cameo moved there.
Not complete without the Leftenant Brothers, who Originally Started Cameo. They paved the way and started this Funk Band. They where originally from Amityville, and Copiague, Long Island.
I ACTUALLY WATCHED THIS TRUMPET AWARD SHOW BACK IN 2018 AND WAS SUPER PROUD THAT CAMEO GOT THERE FLOWERS THAT NIGHT.BY THE WAY ON MY TOP 10 BANDS OF ALL TIME,ONLY EARTH,WIND AND FIRE AT NUMBER ONE IS ABOVE CAMEO IN MY TOP 10 BANDS EVER.I HAVE SEEN THEM MANY TIMES LIVE OVER MY NEARLY 60 YEARS NOW.MY ONLY COMPLAINT THAT NIGHT WAS THAT SO MANY OF THE FORMER ORIGINAL CAMEO MEMBERS AND OTHER FORMER MEMBERS WERE NOT THERE.
You will never hear much about their early albums. Always the same 4 songs. Candy, Word up, She's Strange and Single Life. I wonder why? Give me Rigor Mortis, Funk Funk, Flirt, Post Mortem.
For real bro. My favorite Cameo album is Alligator Woman. Those 4 songs you mentioned were their most commercially successful songs. I'm a bigger fan of their earlier work like the Cameosis album, Feel Me album, Knights Of The Sound Table, and Alligator Woman.
What an amazing band. I am a lifelong fan since their debut album in 1975. I’ve grown up alongside LB & Co. and they’ve provided the soundtrack of my life
Please do not take this down, long live the original iconic legendary trailblazing pioneering funk/ dance/ pop/ and R&B Cameo! Love all their anthems that have stood the test of time. These are true jams! Great tribute at the trumpet awards. Well deserved. ❤️♥️👑⚜️ 💎 🎙 🎤 🎵 🎶 🏆
Somehow I knew this was gonna focus on their “Atlanta Artists”-era stuff. That was stuff cool, but give me Cameo when they were still in New York…with 35 brothas on every album cover. THAT was the Cameo I came to know and love! Yeah Cameo from their self-titled debut through ALLIGATOR WOMAN! With contributions from the Leftenant Brothers and very important contributor in the first half of their career, keyboardist Greg Johnson…the TALKER on all those early albums!
Love Love Love CAMEO!! Thank you so much for posting this celebration of one of the world's greatest group of musicians. What's up Larry Blackman, Tom Jenkins and the other group members.
Oh my lord, mines too. I wasn't sleep on that mf sexy song at all. It is my favorite as well. I have to listen to it often. Pulls on the heart strings for me. It is bad ass. Dam its a jam. They tore that one up foreal. You got good taste... but a lot of people are sleep on that one. By far one of the best songs written. SEXY
Absolutely!! I've been waiting for them to be honored. It's time for the Grio, BET Honors, BET Awards & Soul Traint o pay homage to these legendary kings of funk. Damn, if Queen Latifah, The Time & P Diddy are being honored as legends, Cameo DEFINITELY should be. I'm not knocking them....I"m just stating facts. YES!!!, I'm a diehard Cameo fan😅😂.
Kick me! How did I miss this! This was my first band-crush! Parliament was out before me, but I was right there for Funk Funk. 4x- they knew I got my tickets! Everry show was packed.
Feel me is my favorite. That song is so sexy. One of the best written. I love love love it. They fukin jammed that one. Excuse my language, but its such a bad ass sexy song...
Larry Blackmon is the Main man! The King of Funk! Tommie Jenkins Anthony Lockett Aaron mills and Charlie Singleton Are the Ones! Everyone else including the great Gregory Johnson and leftennant Brothers are from the early days and are the $hit!
There needs to be either a documentary or movie about the legendary group Cameo! Either Unsung needs to do a documentary about this group and how they became legendary! If a movie is done, F.Gary Gray or the Hughes Brothers needs to direct this cause definitely Cameo fans would love to see this! And have Larry Blackman as the executive producer to make sure it's done right! Have either H.B.O. either do it or put it on the big screen! Hope this comes off in 2025 cause Cameo fans would luv to see it! Nuff Said!
I setting here 1:11am Friday morning watching this video and the lady that recorded it was singing along and dang she sounded so good.. girl you need to record.. that voice was right with the music … LB March 17, 2023 Friday 🎉
Congratulations to a group that deserve the upmost award💯 for taking us to another level of funk , like they said , Word Up. Come and mingle every one ☝️ .
One of my favorite bands. Would have been cool to have the rest of the original guys there despite their beef. Sorry Larry, but Brick was here in Atlanta before you guys.

Still missing original members, The Leftenant Brothers, Nathan would have all the fans hyped up. Missing them.❤️🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾❤️
At the least, they should have been mentioned along with the late great Wayne Cooper.
Not complete without the Leftenant Brothers, who Originally Started Cameo. They paved the way and started this Funk Band. They where originally from Amityville, and Copiague, Long Island.
Yeah, the Leftenant Brothers are OFFICIAL MUSICIANS!!!

This was great to see them get this honor but it would have been nice to see all the original members in attendance.

Feel me is my favorite. That song is so sexy. One of the best written. I love love love it. They fukin jammed that one. Excuse my language, but its such a bad ass sexy song...
Sorry but didnt enjoy his MCing! Couldnt hear the fab songs...cameo songs
Larry Blackmon is the Main man! The King of Funk! Tommie Jenkins Anthony Lockett Aaron mills and Charlie Singleton Are the Ones! Everyone else including the great Gregory Johnson and leftennant Brothers are from the early days and are the $hit!
That’s my dad Tomi Jenkins the vocalist and 2nd lead singer next to Larry
I had a big crush on your dad back in the day 🥰
Nathan want,s his money so do the boys from Cashflow. Still...The greatest funk band ever!
Larry Blackmon
Yes I heard about Ca$hflow getting beat of their money too. Tomi and Charlie have left the band in recent years too.
What year was this? I missed it.
2018
Awesome I hate I missed it Thank you 4 sharing!
Love this band. Even the iconic Alligator Woman album cover that featured Denise "Vanity 6" Matthews. All legends.
There needs to be either a documentary or movie about the legendary group Cameo! Either Unsung needs to do a documentary about this group and how they became legendary! If a movie is done, F.Gary Gray or the Hughes Brothers needs to direct this cause definitely Cameo fans would love to see this!

I setting here 1:11am Friday morning watching this video and the lady that recorded it was singing along and dang she sounded so good.. girl you need to record.. that voice was right with the music … LB March 17, 2023 Friday 🎉
Why didnt the original members perform?
lawsuits pending. some deceased
I'm glad they one , BUT WHERE THE OTHER GUYS????
Either dead, sick of beefing I assume lol
Love this great times good times Love ❤️ it
Why everybody head look big
It was like that singer who screamed thru sounds of blackness fab song on grammys
Stokely!
Yes!!! The band was kickin' but Doug E. Fresh needed to tone it down a bit and let the music shine through.
Dougie Fresh added flavor to the performance.😃
an MC doing his job…oh my god😢
@@popahtrj Waaaaayyy over doing his job. That was bad. Like too many people talking at the same time bad.
Congratulations to Cameo for their lifetime achievements award it’s well deserved
When was this?🏳️🌈
I think this was the Trumpet Awards in 2018.
Yes 🙌🏽 Cameo is INCREDIBLE
Why do they look like little people😂
...ahhhh...... why are the heads so big?....love them but something is wrong...
why do they all dwarves on tv here???
CAMEO
⚔️🛡️🛡️🛡️⚔️
Got lorenz tate lookin like a lil boy..lol
Cameo....parte de mi vida..!! Inolvidable.!!

Wouldn’t have expected Stokely for Sparkle but Carl Thomas was definitely perfect for Single Life.

Blacmon wrote that. Song for HIGH SCHOOL87 YALL
this had to be recorded directly off tv
This was Amazing🎶❤🎶👏...Thank you for sharing 😊👍

Why does the video got everyone looking like crazy Anime characters? The brotha with the wild afro looks like Black Vegeta from TEMU! LOL
The BASS ; The DRUMS; and the BRASS ....have been invented by CAMEO
This video has been truncated.
Danhg Doug E. Fresh needs to give the music some space!!! Dang!
Don't. Let. Rigor. Mortis. Set. In. Shake. Your. Pants. Feel. Me. Word. Up.
