OutKast took it to another level by showing respect and love for EWF do not get me started or I will call my old school peeps to kick some you know what
@meliadoul12 Smh. This is a cover moron. I don't know how you assume that this was made years before the Outkast version. Outkast dropped this track in 2003 and EWF & Kenny G dropped the cover song in like 2004 and it was on both Kenny G & EWFs albums in '05 boo boo.
would love to see Mr. Sleepy Brown preform this with them in full Earth Wind and Fire Mode !! Infact would love to see Mr SLeepy Brown join My favorite ALL TIME BAND !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE LOVE the Mighty SOunds of Earth Wind and FIre The BROS never LOOKed Better and SOUND SOO TIGHT !! LOVE MAURICE WOOT !!!!!!

The so called artists, of today and their so called music...has NO SOUL. What they call sensuality; bragging about their package, and not in a way which would let the listener fantasize about the sensuality of the natural act.
This is one of the few times where music from nowadays is copied from an old legendary band...mainly because Outkast are way ahead of any other musician or band of nowadays.
What better way to know this than to have Earth, Wind and Fire's seal of approval.
Gary Bias, the sax player is sick! He's one of my favorites. I'm glad they did this version with him playing rather than Kenny. It's a lot more soulful, IMO.
Folks, the eye candy is none other than Kimberly Johnson, sister of Krystal Bailey and Philip's sister-in-law. And, oh yes, she is one hell of a vocalist in her own right.
This is smoother than a mofo man dayum.
