Not a lot to say, I just love this song. It has such a good feel, you can just put everything else aside and jam.

Back when I smoked pot, this was it.

@mbfg-mobettafitnessgenerat6058

So this Jizzie just pops into my head and immediately I'm ushered back to the early 70s where myself, Yvette Wright Gauff , Tshlene Henreid , Carole Burgess and many more girls in Sheila Sweet's Dance Troupe would practice to master all our routines- and We Did, then we took it across the city, even to Shelton & McNeil Island: and that's all omma say about that part‼️ We were good. Each of us had our own unique & special thing and as a group- Hey BaeBae💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾‼️

Thanks for pouring into us, Sheila👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🤗

Early '70s funk is some of the most fun you'll ever have in music. Stank face and body moving all on its own.

@KarenStokes-wo1yf

Yep! There was a rich variety of music in the 70s, and funk is my favorite!😊

@JohnBrownsBody64920
