One thing about the ghetto, you don't have to hurry. It'll be there tomorrow, don't you worry.

[scottybroker]

[Juan321C]

Rick has not died, he just moved on to the afterlife. And he left us some great music to celebrate his life as well as ours! So many memories...

[perlynx]

How many men can get away with wearing red over the knee boots? Rick James wore them so damn well!

[marla1477]

@perlynx Rick wore them and no one questioned his masculinity.... if you did he probably take your mom, your sister and your girl home and send you a video of the event...

[mytbouf21]

Pretty good quality for youtube.

[kenyajin]

MY OLDER Brother Steve had this record back in 83 or 82.

Rip Steve, and Rip Rick James.

I can sing all his songs with my eyes closed. Head them as a kid. Stuck in my mind forever! Very good stuff!  I like him better than Prince.

[slimzy1990]

Cocaine is a hell of a drug!

[jeslove2003a]

Busta Rhymes sampled this in his song "in the ghetto"

[kristinpms]

This song is the shit!

[FireitupBedford]

@kristinpms The only thing wrong with this song is they should have made a 12 inch long version for this song...

[tyroneakachips]

@FireitupBedford AGREED! SHOULD OF MADE A 12 MINUTE VERSION

[gravity5]

i wonder if those are the "Fuck yo couch" boots

[FireitupBedford]

@gravity5 I dought it because if you listen to Charlie talk he was saying something about a Unity ring if thats the case then no. Because Unity is off the 1983 Cold Blooded album this came out in 1981...

[MBInbox92]

@FireitupBedford Buzz Killington

[oldschoolmama1959]

i had this same jacket on this ablum cover i brought it at one of his concerts but on the real to me rick rank up in the top 10 as the baddest bass players ever

[Shantefan4Life]

Damn he was looking good in that outfit

[Carthsting]

@Shantefan4Life Lol isnt that a hooker outfit?

[BabyG18]

'lookin for some trouble, anybody thatll give me some'

go rick!!!

[Olliet88]

where did all the funk go?!?!?!?!

[burby8100]

@Olliet88 it's still around but we have alot of fans blow it around so it' hard to smell the funk today.

[BabyG18]

its still there

may be a little watered down but someone will bring it back, everything comes back full circle

try out indie disco

[FireitupBedford]

@Olliet88 I'm trying to keep it flowing...

[tyroneakachips]

@FireitupBedford YOU FAIL TO RECOGNIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS SONG RELATIVE TO THIS POINT IN TIME...j.d.

[shaibal1962]

motown & the ghetto...all the same

[RacerEckss]

In the ghetto right now........It's the life.

[lightweight2000]
