Mayer Hawthorne just brought forth the MoTown with a hip-hop essence style I been yearning for. Well done man!!!! This guy is instantly right in there with Smokey and Marvin in my books.
Amen to that dude. Music just ain’t the same these days. I love how he’s a modern day artist but really exposes the new generations to a sound that they might not have heard. Hopefully when people hear about this guys influences, they will go back and listen to some of the oldies too. I’ve been going through tons of oldies these days and they’re just so amazing. Such art. 🙌🏼
I really love his voice and his music. Why have we not heard about him? he kinda grows on you the more you listen to his music. He is so different than the average pop singer.
I'm tellin u I heard this last month n its been in my head steady. diggin for the past 16 years I always appreciated the oldies. Its so raw n real! What up ya'll! Peace!!!
thanks to stones throw for supplying Groove Attack in Cologne with a few copies. Glad i got one! Such a dope song. Will play this tomorrow to my (ex)girl. so totally me right now that song...
Mayer Hawthorne is amazing. I love the fact that he recorded this whole first album of his on actual vinyl. You can tell by the sound that it’s all analog. Analog is just something else. Even if you just record something in the box and run it through some real tape saturation or go to vinyl with it and back in... it’s just magic, man. This is such a chill laid back bop. 🙌🏼🔥
This guys music is perfect for an older brother like me (david Miramontes Sr.) this guy gets down and I thank my david Jr once again everytime i play it i think of you son i love you mijo. Well have a wonderful day be happy and honest and GOD BLESS EVERYONE
mr hawthorne...... recently have turned into A fan, the moment I accidantly heard your once again new kind of talent only because this Era is being re-exposed to really talent that almost extinct.. I share your music everwhere I go because you will be the right inspiration that is need in society once again along with class, pride and self respect once again.. power of music....
haaaaaaaaa!nice finally on youtube.been playing gilles version,but he talks all over it from the radio.niice,need to get a vinyl version!! cause it ain't wooorking it out.funny thing is that all the ladies i play it too hate the lyrics but love the grooove.yeaaaahhh!
ya just gotta feel this real soul ,so heartbreaking and sweet at the same time I give props!! I think It`s great Stones Throw put him under "their wing", That`s why I big up Stones Throw too, 4 putting out so much beautiful music. keep on bringin`it to us! thanx.
Just wanted to say thank you to my son David JR. for be such an assum son im proud of you SON and thanks for turning me on to mayer hawthorne. Keep up the art and all what you do my son.
Mayer does this song with Daryl Hall on an episode of the webcast "Live from Daryl's House", available on You Tube. Mayer does a couple other tunes live with Daryl Hall and his house band. They are excellent.
Nahhh LA is over rated. I see this was 11 years ago lol, I’m sure you see how times have changed 😕 I can’t wait to move outta here haha. Anyways, you don’t need LA to have this swag brotha! You can have this swag anywhere in the world. You bring the party where you go! 😎🙏🏼 Anyways... this is such a great groove. I feel ya man. I wish more artists were genuine like this these days. It’s a legendary sound.

Can't believe I have never heard of this guy! Very smooth groove sound & I prefer alternative rock! New found fan in 2013 haha better late than never :-P
