This music reminds me of a time that if one couldn't stand on their ten toes to what ever situation it be you were not a solid person you was considered a meek person and was left behind to defend for yourself, so much love and respect for all of ya who grew up with this music and embraced it wether it be negative or positive god bless live long and prosper
I'm ashamed to say I have not seen Superfly but I have heard of it. As a white kid growing up in Long Island, these movies unfortunately never made ot to my orbit but this song is incredible, everything from the music to the lyrics and Curtis's voice. I heard this song in a movie called Cop Shop with Gerald Butler. In addition to Superfly, anyone have any recommendations to watch?
I saw Superfly and Taxi Driver at the drive in theater and was blown away by the soundtrack the move not so much but how the soundtrack wasn't nominated for an Academy Award is baffling
Lyrics please?!!
Curtis Mayfield is one of the greatest producers of all time.
You don't have to be black to love Curtis
Still VERY RELEVANT

A Pimp Named Slickback
ALL THESE YEARS THIS RECORD IS NOW BEGINNING TO MAKE SENSE TO ME A WHOLE NATION OF PEOPLE DEAD LIBERATION OR DEATH.
Bring back Motown and silence all RAP
Born in 1972 with all the influence of pimping why everyone so mad I have a pimp mentality
They played this song in one of the Sanford and Son episodes, when some gangsters were looking for Fred Sanford, its really funny.
“My name is a Pimp named Slickback and I appear to have misplaced some merchandise that at this residence”
The '70's; greatest music decade ever!!!!
I saw Superfly and Taxi Driver at the drive in theater and was blown away by the soundtrack the move not so much but how the soundtrack wasn't nominated for an Academy Award is baffling
Shoulda put this song on the soundtrack for A Nightmare on Elm Street 6
I'm probably the only cast member that's still alive.
Fred
Awesome tune! And I love wah wah on the guitar!
I want this played at my funeral. And I wanna be buried in pimp suit.
What a grooooove…❤
