[hellhillyhall]

[ensconse]

[Blackjesus3]

@ensconse Soul Power Documentary

[LB9997]

Lord! i was a Junior in high school played this at our junior prom!!

[NikkiPerri31]

Seee all that booty poppin came from the motherlands, it was in the blood the whole time my people...its jus natural to shake our asses!!! lmao thanks for posting!

[skills4mills]

@NikkiPerri31 most of us white people were not blessed im glad i can dance though

[theEdinero]

I'm a white skinned Mexican who is not necessarily a good dancer, but for some reason I can cut a rug to this.

[Dactuck]

@theEdinero Bob your head, spread your feet, and recognize the bass. Its Easy.

[theEdinero]

@Dactuck Yeah, to this song it's really easy.

[queenofholly]

KINGS INDEED!!!!=) RIP GFOS

[Dactuck]

Are we Gonna have a funky good time?

[nvr2tallluvr]

Don't need Cassius Clay (a.k.a Muhammed Ali ) in the video. At least...when Uncle Sam came - a - callin' for Elvis...he went into the U.S. Army & did his time.

[poots27]

@nvr2tallluvr Why don't u just enjoy the video with the music and keep your stupid comments to a minimum

[Dactuck]

Soul music!!

[add14jazz]

From one of my favorite documentaries ever, "When We Were Kings"....LOVE IT!

[TheSoulBrotha74]

The best version of this song i've ever heard. Soul high!

[adamtzsch]

Ghetto-high!

[yama338dad]

What a show to have seen live eh? Good god!

[alphazero2005]

I agree

[nice1999]

Black music needs to get back to the drums, bass, and horns!

[Dactuck]

@MRjimvinnburr It's not about sports and B-ball son. I believe in the quiet respect of natural music and the love and culture. Haslem, Bibby, and Chalmers did work. But, real players win regardless. Feel me? Too many Upper-classed letter to be RELEVANT. Go to sleep.

[TriXelOne]

@MRjimvinnburr there is NO shortcuts. LBJ, CB forgot.

[alphazero2005]

BB King, James Brown, The Spinners and Bill Withers were in Ziare to perform at a concert that would take place just before the Ali vs. Foreman fight in 1974. This clip is from the documentary "When we were Kings" (1996)

[mjjcng8958]

@alphazero2005 do they have this on dvd? zaire aka the republic of congo right

[rasheremita]

@mjjcng8958 sure the film is called when we were kings, it's about the fight, i heard that there is another documentary about the music shows, but im not sure about that

[mjjcng8958]

@rasheremita that is the one with the spinners the pointer sisters and jb also. i saw that one

[alphazero2005]

@mjjcng8958 "When we were Kings"

[gking407]

They don't make 'em like they used to. That's plain to see from this video. Soul music artists can't inspire people to dance like the GFOS, Ali the legend, even Janet Jackson's got nothing on the dancing girl who showed both tetas in this video. Now she was definitely having a funky good time haha.

[jazz1bro]

This is great video and shows the energy from our folks that seems to be gone! Most of the greats are dead and basically young disrespectful and murderous clowns are everywhere.

[Sal1675]

@DeborahWinter -do u really believe that? where is the proof? - i mean i never felt right about his Parkinson's disease but i dont know enough bout it

[Sal1675]

Boom ba ya

Now thats how JB should be danced too. Damn powerful stuff. Two of the greatest Black men together for the rumble in the jungle (not counting Foreman who went into acute depression for six months after). Biggest fight ever.

[matthewtownsend8]

What's BB King doing there!?

[matthewtownsend8]

What's BB King doing there!?

[matthewtownsend8]

What's BB King doing there?

[Masmuda1967]

@matthewtownsend8 Groovin' like everyone else!

[cockroach2]

I love the white guy at 1:45

[riotofdablood]

GFOS

[captainterrible525]

Somebody once approached James Brown and said "You made all that money and all you do is holler" he answered "yes, but i holler on key" LOL

[AvEryBadApPLe]

Don King brung it, Ali showed it, James Brown rocked it.

[Sal1675]

@AvEryBadApPLe -yeah dude thats the way it went down 

[PrayerCoach]

Nice boobs :)

[PrayerCoach]

Nice books :)

[civman17]

Boom by ya

[BIGBKELtheGOD]

@DeborahWinter

Muhammad Ali was and still is "The Greatest"! A People's Champion in every since of the word. I look at these Clowns and Imposters that carry around the Titles today and I want to vomit!!!

This Man not only faced Boxers! HE CHALLENGED GOVERNMENTS!!!

[nyashahove]

@DeborahWinter injected with parkinsons ? can you even do that. It was more to do with the head injuries he recieved in the ring which later took effect on his body.

[Modacolorist]

♫♛"Gonna take it hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiii-YA! "♛♫

[BIGBKELtheGOD]

@Modacolorist

George Foreman's clown ass stayed hunkered in his spot the entire time he went to Africa claiming that he was afraid his own People would do something to him! What a Coon!

[Modacolorist]

@BIGBKELtheGOD - Don't you just hate negros! X-D Aint that the dummy who named all his kids george?

[BIGBKELtheGOD]

@Modacolorist

Foreman also is quoted referring to the the Citizens of Africa as "Them People"!

[Modacolorist]

@BIGBKELtheGOD "Them people" ? Like I said before, he's a dummy. X-D

[Blackjesus3]

@smzrodriguez It's a great version, but, have you heard the one in Mexico 1978? That's a mind blowing one.

[Gunbei2]
