Lets not compare the Sylvers to The Jacksons anymore.Their more like a cross between The 5 Stairsteps, The 5th Dimension, and Friends Of Distinction.Their was a whole lot of family bands back in the days.But i can say one thing Leon really played the bass on the albums and wrote the songs from the beginning.Sorry Jermaine...
Okay. I love The Sylvers. But there are not better than The Jacksons. It's that simple. And many are sick of hearing others say that Foster was imitating Michael because it's the truth. Donny Osmond was less than a year older than Michael and there were stars around the same time, did Donny sound like Michael?? No, he didn't. So not every little boy who opens his mouth to sing is gonna sound like Michael Jackson. Just sayin lol
Im tired of people saying Foster was imitating Micheal how do you guys expect a preadolescent male voice to sound. its gonna be high and squeeky whether it was Foster Micheal Ralph or my brother John lol!!
Yes they made it and some people broke them Foster and I think one other brothers are still in prison. There are I believe 10 children and MAMA raised them all alone papa was a rolling stone hanging with Ike Turner imagine that?
I learned a lot about The Sylvers from "Unsung". I was born in 1978, but I never her them mentioned in debates about great bands or groups. My parents didn't buy their albums.
I wonder if Michael & Foster met becos it woulda been like a match in music Heaven. Michael could've been Foster's big brother. They looked alike that much. Other than Janet and even Rebbie, I haven't said that about anyone else.
@Aariyan096 Foster and his sister wrote and produched songs on Janet Jackson album that featured the song Young Love and other hit see the back of Janet album covers for song credits I dont know if you remember the magazine "Right On" Yes MJ and Foster knew each other there are pics of MJ back in the time Foster and "the Sylvers wee big ..Mj and Foste never were running buddies But they did meet .I have the pics from the Right On magazine.
@Aariyan096 I only have the album that gives the Sylvers cre dit for their work on Janets album..there is a clipof Janet doing YOUNG LOVE on Americain Bandstand . I dont know if its still on youtube but it was.
@Aariyan096 I have all my Right On mag from the very first onesof the 70's wth the Jackson 5 on the cover till they started with the rappers t articles ..thats when i chilled on buying Right On!
i got hundreds of Right On Magazines lot of them are well reserved
@Aariyan096 I think on the Foster Sylvers Facebook Page there is a picture of Michael with his arm around Foster, probably around the time of 1976-1978, judging from Michael's fro.
I AM 45 YEARS OLD AND I REMEMBER ALWAYS WANTING TO BE LIKE FOSTER AND MJ BECAUSE THEY WERE AN INSPIRATION TO ME!! IF THE SYLVERS HAD THE CORPORATE MACHINE BEHIND THEM BACK THEN THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN JUST AS BIG AS THE JACKSON 5!! MAYBE EVEN BIGGER BUT ONE THING MJ HAD OVER FOSTER IS MJ COULD DANCE AND PERFORM A LITTLE BETTER. BUT FOSTER IS STILL THE SHIT!! LOVE ALL HIS MUSIC THE

@tljones9 If you watched Tv1 Unsung you would know Jody was working in the group almost two years after her duaghter was born touring and shit. She quit cuz Griffey was a pimp keeping all the cash, the dudes was azzes Griffey gave Howie a milllie and the others nada. It was almost 3 decades already get a fcukin life anyway, Leon was a legendary player back in the day and I ain't talkin about his bass playin skillz gittin it in wherever he could and leavin babes all over the Southland
@tljones9 since this is a foster video more relevant question might be how in the hell did sweetie foster end up a damn registered sex offender? leave miss jody the fck alone
I don't think the comparisons really matter, the Sylvers as well as the J5 brought forth some really good music!!!!! I'm so glad to know these groups of yesteryear had thier moments of bringing us what they did best!!!!!!
@librarian5602 I was confused for a while looking at the SoulTrain video of that performance b/c I knew that the cutie that looked and sounded like Foster couldn't be Foster since he was too big/old. Found out later that it was lil Ricky. Ricky was adorable with those dimples. And I have been hooked on that song & especially Ricky's refrain for days now.
sounds alot like the Jackson or is it the other way around in this picture looks alot like young Michael or is that the other way around too... I see why Joe Jackson was going so hard... The Jackson5's competition was fierce.
@sunnyjewlz yea but i wonder how come i never heard of them or their songs. i believe i heard boogie fever mbefore but it doesn't stick to me like who's loving you or i want you back...etc
Oh my goodness i'm having a major flashback...youtube is the bombdiggety...Foster Sylvers,,,I loveeeeeed Foster...wow,,actually I think he is the first entertainer I met...waaaay back n 77...dang now tell me how i remember that...wow
Bobby Taylor discovered the J5 they were the opening act for his band. Suzanne DePasse and Gladys Knight had vouched for the boys. Diana was given the "crown" as usual because she was Berry Gordy's baby's mama! lol. That girl 37 years old and still look like Berry Gordy! Anyways...black people RE-WRITE history books too you know....lol
@UTuberSandwich no its like this the j5 where opening for gladis and she was n her dressing room and heared them called berry and told him he needed to sign them but he ignored her so then bobby taylor heard them and got them an audition with motown and then diana brought them into the spot light
Somebody clue me in please!!! I'm only 29 years old, so were The Sylvers popular in the 1970's? If so why are they not mentioned along with The Jacksons and other groups of the 70's?. This cat sounds like Micheal Jackson...not original.
They were very popular in the mid 70's. However they were performing since the 60's but didnt get signed to a mjor label like MGM until early 70's.
There were alot of youthful and family groups around that time. Curtis Mayfield worked wih the Stairsteps, Jerry Butler with the Sylvers and of course Diana Ross and other motown acts for the Jackson 5.
Foster solo came out in "73" and he was younger than MJ.
Also you have Leon Sylvers III who wrote alot of material duing their early years. MGM allow them to be themselves. When they went to Capitol(who was poor at promoting black artists)change their format to a more pop oriented sound. Now the Jackson had Berry Gordy and his motown money to put them over most family acts that came from that era.
ddeashley get on google. You don't have to know so much all you have to do is READ ALOT! LOL. Jermaine and mama Jackson both stated that they were discovered in CLEVELAND, OHIO. In their movie they show you that Berry Gordy was NOT INTERESTED IN KID ACTS. Since Diana Ross was livin' outta his crack at the time,there was no way she was in Cleveland, Ohio where the J5 did their first audition.
I was just testin you, I'm a big mj fan and I don't like nobody spreading lies about em...lol we from the same place and I don't play that. It was actually Gladys Knight who discovered them though just for the record....be cool!
ddeashley you are 1 person from Gladys Knight. some guy brought them to the attention of Gladys Knight. Come on now the big names are very busy with their own careers. Its the lil guys that gets the word out to the Glady Knights and Diana Ross' and Berry Gordys out there. They just don't have the time to chase down the holes in the walls and the dives that most new talent have to perform in. peace.
I don't know about that, because Dianah Ross was the sexy choice as far as the "who discovered the Jackson 5" question goes. As it was also illuded (spell check) in the movie Dream Girls. It was Diana who was the Arena seat filler at the time not Gladys Night, so Gladys at the time may have very well been at one of the same clubs at the time.I heard her take credit for it (not that it makes it any truer), but she said in a matter of fact way, like"I'm the one who actually brought Jackson 5.."?
The Jackson didnt have their own say so in the begining of their careers.The Sylvers held their own for awhile. Leon Sylvers III is responsible for a lot of SOLAR artists hits and early-mid 80's r&b music emergence.
rockjohnson80 so does all boys sound like that when they are kids. He's not copying Michael Jackson this kid is years AFTER MICHAEL AS He was born in 1962 insted of 1958 like michael jackson. Explain New Edition. would you say they were copying the jackson 5? no! so dont say that about Foster. Boys just sound like that at 8 - 15 years of age.
Man....get out of here. Not everybody sounds like that. Michael Jackson was the blue print for young vocalists in those days and you know he was. Ralph Tresvant sounded like him too. Since he was years after Mike and not too many then he would have a style to look too. The producers always know what they are doing. Same thing with the Osmond kid. When I was little I heard a song by them and I could swear it was the Jackson 5.
man rock you are a rock aren't you? hard as a rock dang it I'm saying that most boys can hit the high notes at that age. I didn't imply that all boys has MJ's talent at that age..lol!
most men get with some young girl but Foster got caught lol. My cousin was 30 and got with a 16 year old girl but she was beggin him to get with her (my cousin is like 6'1 200 with muscles)so hey she didn't have to ask twice. plus I saw that girl. She was bigger (bout 5'7)and taller den me (I'm 5'3) ...it was like wtf..what she really 16??? are you sure? are you crazy? lol
Don't put your cousin out there like that. He could get put away in jail.... Around the 1:40 mark they sound like The Jacksons. You know they do...lol
Man, now that's what I'm saying exactly. GOD is the judge and will sort it out in the end. Not too long ago I witnessed a brother from Texas being released from jail, on TV, after serving most of his life, only to find out, inspite of the "evidence again him", he was proven innocent and released. He maintained this all along, but nobody gave him a chance, until university students took up his case and found layer upon layer of lies that alwost seal his fate. I'm hoping Foster is innoent.
i'm talking about michael was getting older and his voice was changing, the j5 music was trying to mature, even just a little. foster was younger coming on the scene trying the same sound and it's been done already. before foster it was michael. that's what i meant.
sorry he's no mike not in looks and persona or talent. come on. i mean he's cute but he has not the voice, but he sounds more in a league with donny osmond than michael. but i can't blame him for them trying to market something that has worked before."trying to anyway." but definitley no michael.
Man when MJ first emerged i thot he was so fine! But when Foster came in the spotlight I was outta mah head. he was too fine and MJ was already 16 so I was cool withit!
He was a real cutie pie. Between him & Michael, in my opinion, it a tie. I'm sorry that he's going through some changes. Always lift him up in prayer. PEACE.
diamepiece you need to get another look because Michael didn't look nothing like Foster Sylvers. Michael was like 16 by the time Foster even started singing.
It's close on the surface, however, Michael Jackson had an incredible yet comfortable range that went well beyond his years. Foster can be heard clearly straining on this song. I liked Foster and provided a nice alternative for a yong MJ going through voice changes brought on by pubity, however Foster's voice and his persona failed to evolve with his years.
Lets not compare the Sylvers to The Jacksons anymore.Their more like a cross between The 5 Stairsteps, The 5th Dimension, and Friends Of Distinction.Their was a whole lot of family bands back in the days.But i can say one thing Leon really played the bass on the albums and wrote the songs from the beginning.Sorry Jermaine...
