Foster Sylvers’ kid-soul single from 1973 also ended up echoing through West Coast rap… Its groove became a favorite hip-hop sample source, most famously turning up in The D.O.C.’s Dr. Dre-produced “It’s Funky Enough.” #FosterSylvers #DrDre #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

Foster Sylvers was the youngest face in one of the great family acts of 1970s R&B: The Sylvers. Before disco-era hits made the group famous, Foster had his own moment in the spotlight. At just 11 years old, he reached the US #Top40 with “Misdemeanor.” #FosterSylvers #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
