Sylvia Robinson RIP
Soul singer & godmother of rap Sylvia Robinson has died of heart failure. She leaves a huge legacy behind.
Here's where she made her name, a MASSIVE record that enabled her to put a stamp on popular music that will be felt for a long long time: Mickey & Sylvia - Love Is Strange http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpEA5QGYJFQ&feature=fvsr Grandmaster Flash - The Message http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4o8TeqKhgY From the label she created. Has rap ever been better, or said more? I don't think so. |

..not forgetting her UK Top 20 hit Pillow Talk in 1973, a long forgotten gem which included quite a bit of rather suggestive heavy breathing !

R.I.P. I'm not familiar with her music, granted that I was born long after her musical peak, but I hope her supporters are going to keep her legacy alive

'I said a hip hop, Hippie to the hippie, The hip, hip a hop, and you don't stop, a rock it To the bang bang boogie, say, up jump the boogie, To the rhythm of the boogie, the beat' ![]() RIP sylvia |
