one question? why didn't wale sign JYB to rock with him on their own track? eu? doin the butt? really? i mean ok, but still. it's dc stuff. chick is tone deaf and has fake hair.
If wale really cared about go-go, and not HIMSELF, he'd be the rapper for UCB. Not a rapper that got a go-go band behind him. He'd be doing weekly shows in D.C., and not NYC. Sell-out mf
I like Wale. I understand what he is trying to do. So don't sweat the youngin too much. He just needs to be better informed. Hey Wale, here are some international hits you can use as a better reference: BUSTIN LOOSE BY CHUCK BROWN 1976, PARTY TIME BY CURTIS BLOW AND E.U. (EARLY 80'S A TRIBUTE TO DC GOGO) , DROP THE BOMB BY TROUBLE FUNK (EARLY 80'S), I'MGETTIN READY BY DOUGIE FRESH, AND MUCH MORE.
I do give youngin credit reppin dc. Keep it up young.
Why don't you guys like to use contractions when you comment. It's like you don't know how to. Anyway, 'Da' butt' hit #1 soul, #35 in Billboard. God bless!
ppl are taking this to literal..i mean wale was doing a set not a history lesson..if you watch his interveiws he knows the history of gogo..he was just highlighting some mainstream songs ppl know..like ppl know doin the butt opposed to a song like run joe...
yea rock mikey and tre from UCB should know better, come on now and miss kim wtf, but if he mean main stream i think junkyard was the first to get sign to a major label they said that on 93.9 the other day, how u not gonna say chuck brown tho that what my folks told me about the gogo
Go go did not start with Junkyard. Trouble, EU, Essence and the Godfather. He does not know his history. I remember going to the Moonlight Inn, the skating rinks. Savoy school gym to get in you either paid a can good or 50cent and you saw at least 3 bands. I am 45 i remember when go go started. I wish i could go back to them days. OMG
who is this guy. he needs a history lesson. junk yard was not around in the beginning. Trouble, EC, Rare Essence, and the the GODFATHER Chuck. pay 50 cent or a can good to get in the go go. Moonlight Inn, Cherrys Skating Rink. I am 45 i remember when go go started. So tell this dude to go to school and get a his history lesson.
Trenillo is right. And go-go did not start as "pots 'n' pans" music. Chuck started it and Rare Essence, Trouble Funk, E.U., etc. ran with it. Trouble are the guys who became known for their wall of percussion, with timbales, roto-toms, congas, etc. And what about Island records' signing a deal with T.T.E.D. in '84? Anyway, sounds as if these guys need to do some homework.
I don't think they were trying to say Go-Go started with Junk. Everybody know Chuck is the Godfather. I think what they intended was that Junk's "Sardine" and EU's "Da Butt" was the start of Go-Go crossing over commercially. Also these guys are young, they would know nothing of Trouble, Petworth, Ayre, etc. But Junk did indeed start with pot and pans.
He did say Junk started it and dude don't know what the hell he was talking about. CHUCK BABY! KNOW YOUR HISTORY! Dude is young if he thinks JYB started it.
Wow. I just played the video back and yes he did say it started with Junk. Man I can't believe he is that ignorant. How could he not know Go-Go started with Chuck. Most of the young band have no knowledge or respect, they took away the congos, and everything is this roto tom bounce beat. I am not sure the Go-Go we grew up on will survive.
@rarenature no they started with buckets and cans big difference. these is some perpetrating ass shit. Chuck is the start and trouble funk, EU and essence came up under him. But there were other bands hittin at the time also like Mass Extension. This is misinformation
JUNK YARD BAND!!! Okay somebody needs to know their history of Go Go. I'm quit sure that Chuck Brown started Go-Go, follow by Trouble, EU, RE, Redds & The Boys, and so on. I love Junk but these boys was no where around when Go Go first started.
one question? why didn't wale sign JYB to rock with him on their own track? eu? doin the butt? really? i mean ok, but still. it's dc stuff. chick is tone deaf and has fake hair.
