@iBeep2009 Listen again, man. It's "Don't call me 'nigger', Whitey." Then he turns it around: "Don't call me 'whitey', Nigger." It's advocating for an end to name-calling. Like 'racist', for example.
I think this is their best song. It reminds me of hot summer days at the Jersey shore, the smell of tanning lotion, seagulls hovering, cool wind, hot skin, and this song in the background. Ahhh.....!!!
i wanted to ask where was this performance done? i love sly and the family stone and i grew up listening to them in the seventies! its kind of bad whats happened to sly these days..but his music was wondwerful and i still love it.
I love this. Thx 4 sharing and the girl at 0:21 reminds me of me back in the day, lol !!....That was my favorite part. I love Larry Graham. Don't call me Nigg% Whitey and don't call me Whitey Nigg%....I won'tah take ya'higher !! Awesome!!
Sly has SOME Irish in him.. SOME Irish. You can see it clealry at 3:19 to 3:20 in the mouth grimmace. Look and see for yourself. It is obvious plain n clear. It is a good thing.
The guy @3:51 is trying his best to catch the groove, then when he sees the camera hit him, he's tries harder, lmbo, his facial expression of stress is too funny like he's saying,I can't let people I know and see I don't have rhythm, this is hard.
Don't call me WHitey , Nigger, Dont call me Nigger, Whitey. When we understand we are soul then there is no more racism. Great stuff. Painful to see SLy receive a Gramy award a few years ago when he seemed ill or perhaps it was too much drugs from the past.
This is the single record that changed the direction of soul music, hands down.
