70s Funk Legend, Sly Stone, has been reduced to living now in poverty in a camper van down a dirt street in LA!!

What a shame!! So sad!! I love Slys music in the 70s!! He was a true pioneer and paved the way for such artists as Prince, Lenny Kravitz, etc.!!!

Very sad. He's responsible for some of the greatest songs of all time.

Everyday People
Higher
Dance To The Music
If You Want Me To Stay
Play That Funky Music White Boy
Stand
Family Affair
Thank You Falletinme Be Mice Elf (which formed the basis of Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation)

Another pioneering black artist ripped off by the industry. There's no way this guy should be homeless. He should be living extremely comfortably just off his monthly royalty cheque.

He got quite a hefty royalty check from Toyota in the USA, cos they used Everyday People in their ad campaigns in the late 90s!!! So where did all that go???
