[Cheatplayer]

Also sampled by Z-Trip (the most underrated) on "3rd Gear" (I think)

[MsMerising]

One of my fav songs on one of my fav albums. Charles Stepney, Weldon Irvine, Norman Whitfield and this album's Master, Dale Warren - all geniuses. I love them because of all the textures they add to their musical contributions...capturing life through sound magnificently... :)

[PRINCE23062003]

@MsMerising It's genii, not geniuses, other than that, no-one has ever spoken the truth more than you in this comment. Spellbinding, completely.

[MsMerising]

@PRINCE23062003

Ah yes - plural. Graci for the correction :D

[MsMerising]

One of my fav albums of all time...with this being my fav jawn. Wade was an ill musical arranger...R.I.P!

[theonemeatwad]

damn i came here on account of wale sampling this in "the end credits" and realized jay-z samples it in "can i live" from reasonable doubt. gotta peep 24 carat black's game.

[averypack13]

Mother's dayyyy....talk about jammin'

[tcampbel513]

P Ann 's sister Princess sang lead. She is still in Cincinatti singing gospel music. My father is their older brother. Princess got married to Dale Warren the music producer. He and my father were business partners.

[TDH85]

Wale also sampled this on "The End Credits" from Mixtape About Nothing

[ceeza30]

@JAE_MILLZ did this song a favor when he sampled it in "Mothers Day" about his mom from his mixtape Zone Out Season 2"

[LordKnassus]

[soulfunkyman]

dope

[tcampbel513]

My uncle Dale Warren and my father produced and managed this group. My aunt is the singer. She sings gospel in Cincinatti. They were on their way to breaking through when Stax went bankrupt.

[kandycock]

Chords flipped it too...

[pierge87]

all you comment alone the samples of a fuck, the truth is that it is jazz funk and true ghetto, true music.

[bertmarx]

@pierge87 i hate that shit too..

[Noelnsf]

This rola is chock full of potentially dope samples!

[tghetto5]

K-Rob....

Thanks for post that!

[incrediblecHiller]

Good luck. Their LP is very raer...

[novaklem]

None on discogs... But 3 on amazon! 1st press in 1973 but repress on 1993 i think!

[incrediblecHiller]

didn't know. good for you!

[SoulTooSoul]

24 Carat Black's album was a ghetto opera. The songs painted a story of the inner city saga. Their vocals were simply fierce. This album is one of Stax's most sampled recordings. A jazz and soul operetta.
