Marvin gaye went triple platinum with "whats going"

lets get it on platinum

i want you gold and almost platinum

Stevie Wonder sold a bunch of records as did Curtis Mayfield,earth,wind and fire,isley brothers, commodores,etc.

Sly and the family stone greatest hits triple platinum and other gold and platinum albums, plus songs.

your argument is weak because those acts were social and also commerical.

balance period.

on one hand they could diss Richard Nixon and on the other hand talk about macking on Pam Grier or Dinnah Carroll and not miss a beat.


like Kellz sings about the Hood and then smoothing out with a chick.

D'angelo gotta find his balance and lane and stop trying to be all things to all peoples.
