Voici Leon Haywood - I Want' A Do Something Freaky To You

ORIGINAL SOUL SOUND HERE

Feeling kinda lazy today so this one will be short and sweet. Here's the 3rd installment of the You Heard It There First series - except this week I thought I'd focus on some West Coast samples. As always, there are probably a bunch of artists that have sampled these tracks before but here are the one's that would be most recognized.

Tracks:

William Bell "I Forgot To Be Your Lover"
(Dilated Peoples, Worst Comes to Worst)
Leon Haywood "I Wanna Do Something Freaky To You"
(Dr. Dre, Nuthin' But A G Thing)
Quincy Jones "Summer In The City"
(Pharcyde, She Keeps On Passin' Me By)

Get em' HERE

freaks were once something odd or unusual, like someone with six toes on one foot.

in time honoured 'bad meaning good' tradition, a freak has subverted its unpolitically correct beginnings to describe someone totally up for it. so, a slapper in other words.

that's progress, then.

aaron hall - get a little freaky

all of new jack bad boy aaron's output had something a bit seedy about it.

bar-kays - freaky behaviour

controversy-era prince-lite. so if the man himself can't satisfy you with his vast back catalogue, look no further. 

doug e.fresh - freaks

its a long way from 'the show' to this, and i can barely hear doug in here, but...whatever. 

egyptian lover - freakaholic

god i love this. i wish i hadn't discovered it 20 years too late.

jodeci - freak'n'you

as if the original wasn't filthy enough, this is the ginuwine blended bootleg.  jodeci really don't need any help in the sleaze department.

leon haywood - freaky

soul creeper from 80s soul boy leon.

o'bryan - i'm freaky

more prince-lite, well he was the first to make freaks socially acceptable. 

r.kelly - freak dat body

clearly all of r.pissy's songs are about freaks in one form or another. this was the b side to the much tamer 'she's got that vibe'.

rick james - superfreak

ok so you'll never hear this without thinking of mc hammer, but its still quality. 

royalle delite - i'll be a freak for you

what happened to this group? if anyone out there knows, drop me a line. i wish i could find more from them.

sexual harrassment - i need a freak

minimal funk a la vanity 6, but male. love it. 

sweet stuff - freaky

clearly the origins of freaks in soul go way back to the late 60s. bet this wouldn't have got played on totp.
