This is Rick James and the Stone City Band at its best a true band of musicians,I believe the Throwdown albums was one of his best,Rick James definately one of the best Im a fan for life.

All I have to add is that I love this song! What a shame we can't buy it. Even though I'm 43, I just found this song about two weeks ago. It's great!

CLASSIC JAMES HERE...

I dj'ed in Leamington, Ontario (Spencer's) at the time,,,some 45 miles from Detorit.

I played this one every club night until all the kids capitulated and damn well THREWDOWN!!

Mainstream radio did not give this one the respect it deserved.....and I still cant figure it out to this day

had all the commercial hooks required.

ANYWAY, our room gave it the necessary love, and the people responded,,thanks all of you. and you know who you are.

[kemek19]

AND ITS SUCH A GREAT ONE

[jd7779311]

Jojo is so fine to me!! Rick was a bad ass!!!

[xgm4life]

I cant find this song anywhere but youtube. is this Rick James-Throw down or something else?

thanks

[chester187]

@ xgm4life..........This song is off of Rick's Throwin' Down album.

[gochr1s]

@xgm4life the video itself is on the DVD "I'm Rick James, Bitch"...buncha hard-to-find videos of his on that disc, including this one, which was supposed to be a promo shoot for the "Throwin' Down" album release.

[TheTooz72]

I just bought the DVD I'M Rick James and if you are a fan I would suggest that you buy it you won't be disappointed.

[jctorontojctoronto]

the greatest rick james song not given its due.

had all the pre-requisite parts that make up a monster jam too.

thanks you tube for doing your part.....but it doesnt excuse top 40 radio programmers and record execs in the day with failing miserably for not charrting this single with some 'serious push'

[downjones72]

Those backings are such hot girls, especially the white girl. HAWT!

[downjones72]

@batfighter8 really? so if i like the white girl -being a white man - most, that makes me a racist? didn't know that. thanks for enlighting me. u're the best man!

[DullardGuy]

Fucking King of it all. What a master. Peace slick rick! go on and throw down for God one time!

[SARaider33]

Oh yeah! I miss Rick! 1982 was a good year, no worries and lots of parties back home in Sacramento! Thanks for posting! RIP Slick Rick!

[funkman70]

Thanks for uploading this! The video is in supreme condition, Throw it down for the funkmaster!

[LoOn3x213]

ty for uploading this, one of my moms favorite songs, she used to work for the record company and man, it also allowed me to put together a sample, TY!

[owendavian]

he was so charismatic! it's so sad that I'll never see him live on stage

[manacim]

i bet no one knows this song in today's society

[owendavian]

@manacim you're right! I'm from Poland and when I'm talking with somebody about music no one knows who Rick James is. and imagine, only a bunch of people know superfreak (and they think that's u can't touch this cover!). but this is Poland...

[thegmantube]

Love it. It is smokin'.

[papi420chulo]

PUNK FUNK 4 LIFE! Mad love to my girl JOJO (Mary Jane Girls) & Lisa Sarna!

[Heartbeat214]

@papi420chulo I'm not sure about JoJo, but Lisa is more beautiful than ever!

[BerlinLynn]
