Zapp - Your Top 5

[Dr. Jazz]

This is the last "Top 5" Funk band entry. Starting next week, I'll be doing a daily Top 5 thread honoring a "Man of Soul" (male R&B solo artist) that will last for about 3 weeks. But first I want to thank everyone who has participated in the Top 5 FUNK band threads. We have a lot more FUNK lovers on SO than I thought.

Some Funk bands didn't get their own Top 5 thread, so instead they get an honorable mention lol Honorable mentions:

Chic
The Dazz Band
Heatwave
Skyy
Fatback
The Blackbyrds
Faze-O
Brick
The Meters
Crown Heights Affair
B.T. Express
The System
Starpoint
D Train
E.U.
Chocolate Milk
Pleasure
Kleeer
Mtume

and several others. . . .


My Top 5 Zapp joints:

More Bounce to the Ounce (1980)

Be Alright (1980)

Do Wa Ditty (Blow That Thing) (1982)

A Touch of Jazz (Playin' Kinda Ruff) (1982)

Computer Love (1985)


What's your Top 5?

Dr Jazz it would be a waste of time for you to post topics about funk/r&b artists because the majority of people on here are white and they can't relate to black music. I posted some topics about some funk bands albums a few weeks ago and as you can see, nobody responded to my topics so i'm not gonna waste my time anymore posting in the music forum. White people on here are gonna continue to post about their favorite corny rock and country singers.


My 5 favorite Zapp songs are

More Bounce To The Ounce
Heartbreaker
I Can Make You Dance
Come On
We Need The Buck


I also like their Play Some Blues, Be Alright, Doo Wa Ditty, Dance Floor, It Doesn't Really Matter, Computer Love songs. F*ck Roger Troutman's brother Larry for killing Roger. Larry is a punk b*tch. I miss Roger's music. Funk music died when Roger died.

Computer Love

More Ounce To the Bounce

Do It Roger

Be Alright

Dance Floor

I forgot about Kleeer. I was surprised you didn't give Heatwave their own thread, Dr. Jazz.
