  • One of my favourite jams from the back in the day down on 43 this was our slow jam with the ice cream changes sure nuff to make dem ladies panties get all hot and bothered lol We did a more of a bluesy version same groove but the singer was more raspy and bluesy This guy is more gospellish Either way it works

  • I PLAY THIS SONG WHEN I WAS'N SPEAKING TO MY HUSBAND .MY HE R.I.P...

  • My Foster Mama would play this on the weekend especially on Saturday she would start her laundry and I would hear this song playing on the record player know it was going to be a good day

  • loved it when i 1st heard it dats da right thing 2 do & str8n it out instead of runnin from a situation both people should LISTEN 2 each other; he even say it n da song how da hell u figure me 2 understand when i dont even know whats wrong

  • I learned the words to this song when I was about 10 or 11...memories.

  • I REALLY WANTED GERALD LEVERT TO RE-RECORD THIS CUT. THUMBS UP IF GERALD WOULD'VE RIPPPED IT UP!

  • @rickames I discovered this song because i heard R.kelly made a song similar to this so i guess somone already beat him to the punch

  • This man is a Beast!

  • the things that we go thru wit a man when we love him. sometimes we have to stop an ask our selfs is this relationship worth saving at all.but in my case its no. lisa from south central los.angeles just keeping it real at all times

  • That intro rap sounds like he never met a woman like my ex.

    In fact his intro contradicts the lyrics in the song cuz it sounds like he's trying hard to make it right but she just wont budge on something like she's just so full of pride.

    Man you find a woman that isn't so hung up on her pride and stuck on herself you gotta a keeper!

  • very good song lady dee

  • Ol lattimo bumpin

  • If you aint never been through nothin....then you wont understand this song. Real Talk!

  • @tmewarp5 You ain't never lied ! ! ! ! And after the talkin' the lovein'! OH SH*T the LOVIN" umph umph umph, Always wanna straighten it out !

  • @amp1572 letting my ego do the thinking for me, caused me to lose the woman I loved, because I was too much of a jack ass, to try and straighten things out. That's why I said what I said before. Ego and pride, are like having two big mouth friends, that get you into trouble, and when the smoke clears, they always say.."well damn bro. you didn't have to listen to me"

  • @tmewarp5 Is that how you feel?

  • quit hatin the south by ugk

  • HE'S KISSIN UP TO THE FEMALES IN THIS SONG..WITH THE INTRO..AND IF HE REALLY KNOWS, THEN HE KNOWS THAT HE IS B.S.in...lol...cause lots of time..its the choices..that a woman makes..and the other half of the time its because she didn't listen to good advice when mama told her, grandmama told her..and maybe even her children told her....so..i like the song..but man..a MAN knows..it ain't nearly all the time the man's fault.

  • everybody needs street knowledge sometime.

  • Wish my other half would have said this but, instead after 20 years he said "Deuces"

  • @robinwoo66 y would u wanted him 2 say dat bc he wouldve cheated on ur azz if he hadnt leave get real ppl

  • TO ALL THE HATERS: Keep hating.... But think about it: if more men was willing to TRY and straighten things out there would be less broken homes. A real man is always willing to face the problem: while boys insist on running away !

  • @deecoats01 So True!

  • @deecoats01 AMEN!!

  • Comment removed

  • @deecoats01 you should read my comment below..lol

  • @deecoats01 so deecoats wat do u call a woman who does the same thing? The woman im wit doesnt want to work anything out, all she wants to do is jus forget about nd not talk. Im always willing to wrk things out nd i take care of my home like A MAN IS SUPPOSED to do. S again wat do u call a woman who does the same?

  • @deecoats01 straight talk = a chance

  • CLASSIC for the 25 ppl who dislike your idiots have your hearing checked!

  • The reason why a lot of people seem to be liking oldschool is because these artists during that period were older and polished in lyrics and sound. They were grown folk with lyrics and spoke upon it. The hottest acts are from youngsters who "quite honestly" talk through young thoughts and it shows through what they talk about.

  • @rjam1974 DOUBLE AMEN!!

  • This is an excellent song with fabulous vocals!

  • I'm 23 and I grew up listening to all this good music... you can't beat the classics, the remakes don't do it any justice!

  • it's 25 crooked as mf's in the world!

  • some peoples dont understand the truth when you hear it ?so shut the ... up and listern to the song thank you w love

  • Right behind this is Bobby Womacks' "Tell Me Why"...TRACK

  • This IS the one we LoVe... get my Latti-Fix ... ah huh

  • Brother i feel you, real music have left the building, and I hope we find it again, i really don't think singers today really feel what they singing about, they just singing to thier own beat. shaking booty and talking bunk, they need to strighten it out. the for real brother from the old school. Peace

  • @simplykameko AMEN

  • Can somebody please put doggin me around by johnny taylor on here

  • Hi, I am looking for a song titled Beverley. It's from the 80s possibly early 90s. I don't know the artist, it's and r&b tune. I would appreciate any info, thanks

  • SIT YA SELF DOWN AND TALK TO ME-----------------

  • @drummer083, the way sampling works is that the record company has to get permission to use the sample and the the band being sampled gets a royalty. any rappers who don't do this aren't getting any money from what they release either. i agree with you though that people shouldn't be able to take music and make it worse, but sampling really is an art and when not abused, and done correctly can be something completely new and different from the original. ever heard of j dilla? or 9th wonder?

  • "Lets Straighten It Out" with Mr Lattimore!

  • Heeeey, the get it right relationship song! This song still sounds good & relevant even today.

  • i believe a woman feels more than a man

  • This song is straight, Go Latimore

  • i love it

  • Yep this the jam. I am so feeling this song. Love it...

  • Now thats tha shit

  • This is definitely a CLASSIC, and nobody can do it like Latimore! This is when music still had relevant substance.

  • get on my latimore level!

  • i know i experience this i lost my wife cheating badrisk

  • Sit yourself down, girl, and let me talk to you!

  • IF U ANIT BEEN THREW THIS SHIT YOU IS NOT GROW!!!!!!

    

  • WHEN UR SPOUSE IS MAD AND U DON;T KNOW WHY JUST PLAY THIS SONG TRUST ME IT WILL WORK .!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • ok a kno das  rite yep

  • ok  a kno das rite

  • To all the haters hating on sampling. I would have never known or fallen in love with Hip Hop if it wasn't for looking for the original songs, that our favorite producers sampled.

  • IM 17,ND LOVE GROWN FOLKS MUSIK....READY TO DANCE NOW...

  • @kakamartin15 SAYY DAT

  • I like this grown folk muzik!!

  • aight them niggas aint shit a feel ya

  • Don't know much about rap,not my style. Don't care much for what I hear today...But this man,is speaking words I can relate to.Talkin to me...I like it,posted it...Thanks Truce!

  • Now this is MUSIC. It's like legendary MC, AZ stated, "Whatever happened to the realness from back in the past"? This is classic soul incarnate, only those who love and adore true musicianship will appreciate majestic gems like this.

  • I blame the parents for just not showing this type of music to their children. My Dad did, helped me expand my mind. Hip-hop is my life, but I only really began to appreciate hip-hop when I began to listen to this type of music. And I ain't talking about 50 cent, souljah boy, or shit like that. I'm talking Jay Dilla, Pete Rock, Wu-Tang Clan. So before you go bashing hip-hop, remember that there are talented hip-hop artists who also are struggling to survive.

  • @MrKurtz1000 same with me. u cant forget gangstarr though . when i was abt 6 ,my dad showed me gangstarr-just to get a rep , and other songs from the late 80's - early 90's. before i knew it , i was begging to find out where they got the ideas of their beats . so then i begin listening to even more classics , such as al green, teddy , barry white , and now i'm making my own rap beats wit songs like these or classic spanish music . real hip hop cant die wit all of the talented underground rappers

  • This is it !!! :)

  • Pimp c was the BEST to sample this song r.i.p. Pimp c

  • @mrlouisianimal100

    Lil webbie did a good job of remaking this song as well..R.I.P. Pimp C!!

  • I SAID LET'S TALK ABOUT THIS THANG...LIKE GROWN FOLKS, WE AIN'T GOING ANOTHER NITE WITH YOUR BACK TURNED TO ME!!!!!!

  • Perfect Blues Classic!

  • this is the shit

  • i love this song. it is the true meaning of just not understanding

  • ol skool

  • @straightoutoftexas.... Yesssssssss.... Speak the truth. thats real talk... This song got more youtube hits then gucci mane sale's

  • You got to straighten it out!!

  • I dud not know that!!! That is truly sad...

  • sumtimes it is good to go back n listen to old skoo music

  • Very nice...

  • This was awesome.

  • Look at this bullshit! 592,335 views for a classic old school jam that has so much true substance,and clowns in today's music such as gucci mane,lady gaga,souljah boy,t-pain,& many others who have not 1 ounce of true ''SINGING'' ability have millions of views.I know times change,but can anybody FUCKING SING without talking about bitch's,ho's,cars,guns,beef,st­rip clubs,money,houses,drugs,bling & other senseless,repetitive garbage? at 44 i thought i would have never heard black music suck so bad.

  • @str8outtatexas1 YOU TESTIFYIN'!!!

  • @str8outtatexas1: Damn, you hit the nail on the head. I so couldn't agree with you more.

    

  • @str8outtatexas1  u said exactly the way it should be said "thank-you"

  • I'm from old school era & i just cant get with these little young bucks & this crazy stuff they sing

  • @str8outtatexas1 you aint gon kno bout dis shit unless you grew up on it doe and it prolly aint really known outside the south, its cool doe we can keep dis to ourselves.

  • Nah, not just the South. I grew up on this in Cali.

  • @veezyvizzle fa sho I already know how west coast and mid-west get down, east coat niggas be different.

  • @paulandj nigga check out "sho nuff" what am i going to do !

  • @str8outtatexas1 bitch shutup

  • @str8outtatexas1 im with you on this one man. im 31 and i listened to this stuff as a kid and i still hold it close. cars clothes and hoes. FOR REAL? The best material gift i ever got was an uncle dying and leaving me hundreds of 8 tracks, vinyls, and cassettes. this bs on the radio these days will NEVER EVER COME CLOSE TO WHAT MUSIC IS SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT: REAL LIFE SHIT. The young kids wouldnt understand any of this REAL LIFE STUFF. We need a revival for real.

  • @mrleonlcox Thumbs up to you.

  • @str8outtatexas1 ....Please everyone has an opinion. Don't let hate get in the way.

  • this song is so true...I like the lyrics to the song its very compelling to the soul....soothing and relaxing to the mind and body......

  • if we all could do this,there would be less sorrow.

  • @TheBJD2010

    add lower divorce rates

  • 15 do not know good music...

  • Benny hit #31 in Billboard, 11-30-74. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx!

  • Please ignore these ppl who come to this video to say they dislike this song. They only do that to get a rise out of those who like it. Trust me they don't really dislike it or they would never come here....and if they did by mistake then why stay and listen to it? Some people are just looking for some attention and are very lonely and to people like that....neg attention is better then none at all. Ignore the haters and leave them to their loneliness.

  • This is real talk.

  • How The Fuck Can U Disslike This

  • this song gives me goosebumps ... it takes me back to a time when i was going through the personal blues and this song used to pick me up. im sure yall know where im coming from! they dont make music like this no more
