…ooh girl, i love me some…

… al jarreau.

lately sista girl and i been playing this game. I can’t really give it a name, so I guess we’ll just call it “Name your favorite obscure 70’s - 80’s - early 90’s R&B star that’s fallen off” I think it started off with my sister calling me during my nap and saying the following:
Tina - ” Ooh, guurl, I love me some Billy Ocean.”
Holly - “I love me some Al Jarreau”
Tina - “I love me some Ashford and Simpson”
Holly - “Ooh girl, I love me some Otis Redding”
Tina - “Ooh girl, I love me some Shalimar”
Holly - “I love me some Jermaine Jackson”
Tina - “I love me some Freddie Jackson”
Holly - “I love me some Clarence Carter… ‘I be strokin…that’s what i be doin’”
Tina - “I love me some Peabo Bryson”
Holly - “Oh hell no. I love me some Jermaine Jackson : ‘why don’t you do what you do when you did what you did when you done done it and done did it to meeeee, girl’“

needless to say, it keeps going. got any good ones?
