💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Yes it was takes me back to Maxi's, Grand Quarters , sneaking into Legends (lol), riding around Belle Isle vibes. I miss those days. My cousin had a brand new Ford Contour...skipping summer school to go to Fairlane Mall.

Latin Quarters
The River Rock
IS a straight classic
This song was and will always be a Detroit classic ❤❤❤❤❤
Soulful Moaning is a timeless masterpiece! It’s a shame this man threw his life away. Thanks to Dale, he has been able to keep this song alive without his partner. Big ups to Cadillac Dale!! This song has created half of the 90s generation! True pantie dropper! This song is embedded in my dna!
Soulful Moaning was my wedding reception song and at the time my then wife loved this song so much I took her garter off to this song!! Detroit classic all day
From Toledo we rocked the ish outtta Soulful Moaning.... loved extended mix
Still listening to it 2024
Shoutout to Dale who also was a part of that classic Detroit record. You knew what time it was when you heard that joint blasting on Jefferson in the 90s and early 2000s.
Classic song 👇🏾Mile I remember when they passed the maxi single at Mumford in the 90s . Still in rotation to this day.
Mumford ...93!!
Go MUMFORD💙🎉🎊💙🎉🎊💙🎉🎊💙🎉🎊
Great interview. I remember the album they were called Dale and The Magic Show back in the 90's. We danced to this in Maxie's every week and it's still rockin in 2024. 💪🏽
Omg I remember Fat Tuesdays at Maxies 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I stayed at Maxie's every week. Love this song.
IThis brother helped me get out of prison and he's still there 😮
That’s what I said man he cool dude just was locked up with him at URF he a smooth brotha even tho he has life 💯
GOD BLESS THIS BRO💙
Never knew the backstory to this song. Salute to this brother for sharing! Still love that joint. And Im from the D...respectfully! Hope this dude makes it home!
This interview really just shows how the spirit of God transcends our circumstances. I used to do art when I was locked up that was displayed at UofM, that used to be seen by many people in the public, so art is so powerful that it can send the spirit of life worldwide even while the body is in bondage. So this interview is monumental! Salute to both Shawn Harris and The Forum Magazine for this interview 🔥🔥🔥
Amen well said!
I pray You make it Home Brother💯✔️
He was connected with Esham as well , he recorded this song in one of the studios Esham had on lock at the time .
The ladies at "Rado's Lounge"went crazy when Dale performed there... good times gone by .
Shawn personally gave me a 12” record I was at Buy Rite on 7 Mile … then I got it again in the Record pool with Tyrone
Great interview!! His voice still sound the same❤I hope his interview and the words help someone stay out of trouble and focus on their gift.
Yessss!!! I'm from the Big D! DETROIT is On the ComeBack Ya'll 💯✔️
Subscribed off of this one. "Soulful Moaning" is a damn CLASSIC. Im straight from Detroit and remember this song from h s proms and homecomings and ot has stood the test of time. I still bang that song til this day Wish i could hear the rest of their work. Shawn and Dale were super talented.
Thank you
You the illest for this bro, We needed to hear this because his story almost went untold. And he’s on top of his game he would’ve definitely made a even impact out here 🙌🏾
Before big sean made his version.. i was saying to myself.. that he should cover it.. should've been a A&R
History time: G Funk was created by my T Green and all the musicians and old school producers from Detroit that went to the West Coast to work on that protect for Dr Dre. We even got our hands in Gangsta Rap, DJ Unknown is from Detroit he produced 6 In The Mornin’ for Ice T That’s why all early West Coast Rap had a Techno / Electro vibe. Our producers was creating the sound bed…. And Master Farad met Elijah Muhammed in Paradise Valley…. That was on the Eastside
Facts. The whole west coast sound is a Midwest sound
I remember performing at a music seminar in Detroit, and that's when I heard and saw them perform Soulful Moaning. This song has and will always be a classic in The D!
From the son of the Kings of the Jitt (Jitterbugs) Love dat song since I was a kid! Love the content bro, keep it up 💯

SHAWN X
I’ll Never Forget The Knowledge You Taught Me..💪🏿💯🫡🫡🫡
I love big brother SDH AEB
Oh Ok I see what's going on. This guy burned up 2 girls in a car ( that's beyond just killing somebody btw) and went to Jail for his Ego, basically. Ok and then, the interviewer asked him about his old partner and he said he hasn't done anything in 29 years. The truth is his former partner Dale (Cadillac Dale) sold a song to Jack Harlow and that's him singing on it. the Lovin On me song- somebody posted it in here it has 134M streams - taking a guess its probably more than Soulful Moaning. He so well versed in music he MUST know Dale is doing his own thang out here with out him. --- SO REALLY once again this dude's EGO couldn't handle his old partners NEW success and he had to come on here and try to create some shine for himself. Acting like a big time music guy. He obviously hasn't figured that part out yet in all this time. The comments on this post just told the real truth that the guy in Jail left out. IJS I love soulful moaning like everybody else - but I can't stand these men out here killing women because of their own lack of self control.
You know for sure he burned two girls in a car I don't see that anywhere smh
@joyejackson302 one girl was burned in a car. The other was found about a day later she ended up passing away but she told police what happened
@@VictoriaPpp i didn't know that I'm sorry to hear that RIP to them 😭
@@VictoriaPpp I found it wow 😯 thanks for the info
@joyejackson302 no problem 💙
Dude story is crazy.......
I appreciate his knowledge of the music industry... however is this the same guy who killed 2 Detroit girls in real life not just in lyrics.???? If so, That would mean his 10,000 days, 29 years, etc. rhetoric is because he committed a horrible crime in cold blood . Is this the same guy? Dude, the time hasn't been appropriate because you are IN JAIL for a really bad crime. The picture you paint can't be a reality ! So be True about YOURSELF (and the people) as you say others should be. FORUM Magazine- is this the guy I think it is?
It is. I used to work for real life productions. And he had just went to prison not even a year prior and we were trying to get Esham‘s music played on FM 98. And they refused to play Esham’s music. And I remember sitting with James Smith, who is Eshams Brother at the headquarters. And he was so pissed off the FM 98 wasn’t playing the song mental stress. And he had made a comment about them playing soulful moaning who was the singer who just murdered two girls put them in a trunk of a car and lit it on fire. That’s the story he told me. I don’t know how much of it’s true, but if it’s true, this guy sensitive deserves to stay where he’s at.
He’s in prison for killing two white girls he really cooked
Bro I usually would say you doing too much but to look at his crimes just shocking even to a former criminal
@@PettyTupacTv I remember I had commented a while ago to get you to reach out to interview him alot of people don’t know he the guy behind soulful moaning and I think the only other person that knew about him in the vlog game was alprofit but yea he crashed out literally threw his life away
Free this mf man fr fr 🙏🏽 he kicking all Facts!!! With George Clinton, he's actually from Jersey, but everything he did was Detroit inspired. Most of those hit songs were actually made in Detroit
Really? He is regurgitating information that everyone has access to... and you think he should be a free man because of that??? Brother-- he killed 2 young girls 29 years ago... that's 29 years that their families didn't have them at the dinner table, 29 years they couldn't open Christmas gifts, that's 29 years of play off games they missed...
@@RunaeRamseyhe who is without sin cast the first stone bro we've all made mistakes I've made several and it's only by the grace of God I'm not serving life in jail right now he did 30 years sheesh and I didn't say free him because of the information get some discernment before you start commenting especially under my post please!
Are you remorseful? Because he doesn’t sound remorseful. He sounds like it’s more that he’s missed life than the families missing the lives of the girls he murdered. Nah he belongs there.
@@roncarlonethe real sad part about this is that most people don't have discernment and clearly you don't either this man didn't even go into detail about why he was in jail for murder because of his appeal he didn't sound bitter at all as a matter of fact he's trying to teach the youth not to go to prison and commit crimes people just like to talk at this point and are extremely judgemental it's sickening 28:13
@roncarlone anything I did on a certain levels had to be done and I would do it all again considering the circumstances
It's Dale song
Dale literally and figuratively carried the weight of this song still to this day. I’m just happy cuzzo he finally broke out the shadow of this song and truly got his flowers off “Whatever” jack harlow-loving on me #Cadillac Dale
George Clinton is from Grand Rapids
No he’s from Plainfield NJ
Which one?
Lil Shawn errwhere , F" Boyz everywhere,, I get it they made sure my guy didn't get money,, industry shit, they made & still making money off that hit, hook all that....... long as he not ....
Sir! Two ladies are dead, one of the victims said that you shot her before she died the next day.
Here you are taking about music and a hit song. Mannnnnn if you don’t go sit down somewhere!
