Posted @withrepost • @drjelanifavors We throw th Posted @withrepost • @drjelanifavors We throw the word legend and icon around too loosely these days. But it was my honor and privilege to help bring this session together for #ASALH2022 featuring a man who is a TRUE pillar of FUNK music and American popular culture - Mr. Fred Wesley. In addition to his own brilliant solo career, Mr. Wesley’s horn played on some of the most important songs of the Black Power era while playing with James Brown and Parliament Funkadelic. During his INCREDIBLE talk with Dr. Scot Brown, he displayed the intersectionality of Black music when he said that James Brown hired him because “he liked the fact that I could put a little jazz in his funk.” Songs like, Say It Loud I’m Black and I’m Proud, and Make My Funk the P-Funk would not have been the same without his brilliant contributions. Thanks to @dr.scotbrown__musikverse for facilitating a stimulating conversation to a packed room who got to see and meet a musical legend up close. We are all much funkier for it!! #asalh2022 #fredwesley #fredwesleyandthejbs #passthepeas #sayitloudimblackandimproud #makemyfunkthepfunk #funkmusic #soulmusic #funkateers #legend #icon
