Can’t even explain what Sly means to me. Grew up on him, singing with my brother and sister in the back seat. He was summer, he was courage, he was jubilation.

Can’t even explain what Sly means to me. Grew up on him, singing with my brother and sister in the back seat. He was summer, he was courage, he was jubilation. And his music still is. RIP.

- jimt1234 1y agoSame here. I got into Sly after hearing the Beastie Boys "Paul's Boutique" album, where he was heavily sampled - like this gem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_Z7HwDnuNI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_Z7HwDnuNI Side note: Sampling is/was controversial, but I'll always be grateful to hip hop and sampling for introducing me to so much great music (like Sly) that never would've made its way to the suburbs of Missouri where I grew up. The Beastie Boys "Paul's Boutique" and De La Soul's "Three Feet High" albums triggered me to purchase, probably, 2 dozens other albums because of all the samples - from Sly to The Isley Brothers to The Turtles and so on.
