Reeeeeeelaax your miiiind..

One of the smoothest jams of all time

Didnt even know this remix/extended version of this existed

And surprisingly a lot more dope jams but these are my 3 favorites
You can tell roger didn't need to use the talk box as a gimmick he clearly used it to make the songs more catchy and create a new sound that became super popular 30 years later. Shame how he and his brother died the way they did but these hits will never be forgotten

Timeless music

Nigga was singing about love on a computer before mainstream computer ownership and internet what a pioneer

Never heard of this I'm in

🤓

Computer Love and I Want to Be Your Man are all timers

Wait this a cover of the kraftwerk song?

Nope but that’s also a classic

Rip to the one that was murdered

zapp is crazy but this thread made read up on them and...

Nice looking forward to listening

Word?? Yeah I hope you played at least these 3 tracks posted here immediately

That I Wanna Be Your Man s*** was on some real "playa, just tell a woman how feel" type s*** and not this lame era we in now lol. I love that s***

I do know Roger of course

I've actually been trying to get into this style of music so I'm glad u made that thread will listen when I get some free time

Ohio Players tho..

Yup that was Roger, who was always the clear leader of Zapp. Killed by his own brother Larry. It's still speculated about what happened but I read they think it was a business dispute and roger was gonna fire his brother. Shot him then killed himself. Messed up story for a legend man

@op a very real one for this

Lowkey miss the swag of the 80s man

bring up kraftwerk whenever black people pioneering electronic music are mentioned challenge

@op they’re a goldmine for samples too

No parking on the dance floor

one of the true greats

rly influenced a lot of stuff

Oh for sure. And then ironically they ended up getting sampled a bunch themselves years later

as someone who is black I don't see the issue, unless your insecure about black excellence or actual history

also there are no actual examples of what your referencing in this thread lol, post some 80's techno g
