    Sheila Escovedo 😍 She's a friend of the fam. You should see her live, she played percussion with my family members who play in salsa, cumbia and merengue music. Her father Pete Escovedo and family worked with some of the greats, like Tito Puente in Latin music.

      thank u so much for this clarification. all we need is for younger generations to believe love is not needed. that's precisely why each verse ends in "without love, it Ain't Much"! ALSO (to Jack Reacts) listen to every verse carefully. the song tells a story -- in the end, she came across a man, they made love & "by the 7th wave [a/k/a climax], she knew she had a problem. she thought 'REAL love is REAL scary [but] money only pays the rent. Love is forever & that's all your life...' ". She realized that REAL love IS 'glamorous'. ~ b.

    • @aishastaggers9913
      @aishastaggers9913 3 роки тому +1

      I think it is more that her obsession with living glamorously has to be matched by a man who can provide, but also give the love she seeks, but he also has to have conversations skills because "boys with small talk" don't impress her. She wants her equal. Her twin soul. Which makes sense Prince, the eternal Gemini, would write it this way.

      Just found her new channel some weeks back that she's premiered. Not heavy on the guest list yet, but I still get happy everytime I see her and her positive energy. She has a virtual jam session with young aspiring girl drummers. You can see the admiration and geeked out joy they get to play with and speak to her. One girl was all the way in Japan and woke up at 4am her time to do a jam session with her and get to talk to her. So inspiring to females. Lenny Kravitz's female drummer is kickass too. I don't know her name though.
      "FLY AWAY" and "ARE YOU GONNA GO MY WAY" are my favorites videos to watch her go in on them drums.

    Sheila was a musical hero of mine growing up. I wanted to be a badass drummer like her. Joined the high school band to learn how, but it was already taken. Ended up playing alto sax.
    But this woman was fearlessly fabulous and not afraid to go hard....especially touring with Prince.
    Fun Facts:
    If you heard a male adlib in there, it was Prince.
    She had her brother in the band. He had the glasses on. Family affair.
    She was in the movie Krush Groove. That is a 80's throwback that was definitely a sign of the times. Everybody that was hot at the time was on it: Run DMC, Fanboys, New Edition, Curtis Blow, Sheila E, Full Force (as hired muscle).....a very young Blair Underwood as Russel Simons. It's loosely based off of Run and his brother Russel getting their label together, and working with Rick Reuben.

    (or for an Audio performance - - she sings the female part [uncredited] on Prince's infamous: Erotic City ) and fun fact - - she agreed to sing on that song only as long as she got to say "Funk" at the parts where it sounds like she's saying something else! [cause she's a classy lady.] But when you hear Prince saying it - - Yeah, he's sayin Exactly what it sounds like he's sayin.

    Not in this genre, but lots of famous drummers/singers, like Phil Collins and Karen Carpenter, and Steve Perry (aka ‘the voice’ of Journey fame). He dad was famous Latin drummer

    Shelia was in a relationship with Prince for years. They performed together.
    Shelia E is the foremost female percussionist in the world. She does it while singing and dancing!🔥 And at 63 the same age as me she’s still doing it. Check out her live performances. She’s had 20 or so popular singles and 7 albums. React to her songs Love Bizarre with Prince and America.

    Sheila E's dad is none other than the talented Peter Michael Escovedo, an American percussionist. The apple doesn't fall to far from the tree. Peter and his brother, Coke, formed a band with the legendary Carlos Santana. The rest is history.

    Made it to #1 on the dance chart, # 7 on the Billboard hot 100 pop chart and #9 on the R&B chart. This is an example of the 80s. We all loved, worked, danced and played together. There was no color barrier. Why do you think there are so many mixed people today. The media has driven a wedge between races for selfish gain. True love has no color. Keep it real Jack. BTW my Great Grandfather is black. Peace, and GOD bless
