JIMMIE “JJ” WALKER made the phrase “dyn-o-mite” popular nationwide with his role as “JJ” on the successful television sitcom Good Times. He has made countless appearances on The Late Show With David Letterman, Politically Incorrect, and The Tonight Show With Jay Leno.
STYLISTICS - Beginning in 1971 with their Top-Ten Single “You’re A Big Girl Now,” the Stylistics continued to exist at the top of the charts with 12 consecutive Top Ten Soul Hits. Other classics included “You Make Me Feel Brand New” and “Break Up To Make Up.” The group’s Best of the Stylistics album went platinum.
As the lead singer of The Main Ingredient, CUBA GOODING SR. scored such million-selling hits as "Everybody Plays the Fool" and "I Just Don't Wanna' Be Lonely." The smooth tenor’s vocals were sampled by five-time Grammy Award winner Alicia Keys on her smash single, “You Don’t Know My Name.” He debuted “Never Give Up,” from his latest project, at the 2009 presidential inauguration.
The ever soulful and timeless NEW BIRTH features original members brothers Melvin and Leslie Wilson. Classic hits include “Wild Flower,” “It’s Been A Long Time,” “Dream Merchant” and “I Can Understand It.” Their tunes have been covered or sampled by K-Ci and Jo Jo, Notorious Big, Somethin’ For The People, and De La Soul just to name a few.
