They laid our ivory queen of soul to rest the other day
We Loved Teena Marie and followed her throughout her whole career. Our Sadness at her sudden death meant that we had to follow it to the end. This is some of the last footage of Teena and her band rehearsing for Her fall 2010 Tour. this was shot in early September 2010 as she prepared to rock the world one more time.
Yeah Teena, we'll always be Suckers For Your Love Baby..
Just watch her fingers glide over the strings; it just as if she wrote this music yesterday. Her music is emotionally timeless and will remain a part of our generations dna mindmap. watch her starting at the 7:10 mark and you know she's all IN the music. She's jumping and putting her whole funk into the mix. Thats' Teena. The coroners report says she passed away of a cerebral hemmorage; in her sleep thankfully.
For those who may have missed this - it's from the memorial service for Teena Marie.
Some folks don't know the real story about Teenas' relationship with Rick James. This is a short clip of what she sums up as Rick Using Her. The way it looked to us - is that they were so deep that you couldn't tell what it really was - but we all loved it. Seeing them on stage performing is an experience I can never forget. the funk hung in the air like a cloud. the emotion was palpable and Teena was on fire. Rick was a master at manipulating the crowd and his band - and in his hands Teena was C4.
Oh Yes Shes' Definately Loved, cause She's Still Rockin Our World. If You are a fan, just think of her when you look up and hear a funky song.
That's Teena twinkling ever so brightly just above our heads. Loving Us Still.
We're starting a new Friday Tradition on BadGalSays - Fitness Friday.
We Believe that Friday calls for a Lil Booty Shakin - so lets do the Humpty Hump.
Most of the week we sit behind our desks and work, with little time to shake that body. that's just not right. so why not spend a few minutes with us Every Friday - and Shake That Funky Body. did you realize that if you danced for just one four minute video you could burn approximately 300 calories, and have a bunch of fun doing it.
I hope that by starting this tradition we'll encourage more of us to get up and Move Around. it's important to keep that body moving and to do it in ways that are fun, not like work. Your Heart, Your Back and Your Booty will Thank You - Trust Us.the endorphins released from dancing with Humpty are Healthy Benefits.
For Our Kickoff Today, we picked one of our most favorite Old Dance Videos from youtube.com - Humpty Hump From Digital Underground.
The Band was from Oakland Ca. They worked really hard for a few years but this was their biggest hit in the early 90's.
Okay Lets Do The Humpty Hump.
Just a lil HipHop Fyi *Tupac Shakur was one of the back up dancers in Digital Underground -
Yes I said Dancers. he got his start in Digital Underground as a dancer; before anybody would give him a break as an aspiring rapper. see if you can spot him in the Humpty Hump Video, it's not easy but he's there. (click the picture to open it in it's own screen to see the pictures more clearly. it's well worth it)
now for those of you who are unfamiliar with the dance, we've included the original Digital Underground video of Shock G and the Humpty Hump in action. this should help you to get your booty in gear and your attitude funky.
Turn Your Speakers UP LOUD And PUSH THAT CHAIR BACK, Lets Get It In Gear MY Fellow Funky Bloggers
Awww Do It Baby, Do The Humpty Hump, Do the Humpty Hump
(words from the first verse, so you can sing along confidently; and impress your officemates and friends who are close by. yes you too can look like a dancing fool who KNOWS The Words)
Now stop what ya doin, cause I'm about to ruin the image and the style that you're used to. I look funny but Yo I'm Makin Money See so Yo World I hope ya ready for me. Gather Round, I'm the new fool in town and my sounds laid down by the underground. I'll drink up all the hennesy you got on your shelf. so let me introduce myself. my name is Humpty - prounounced with a umpty. yo ladies oh how I like to funk thee. and all the rappers in the top ten, please allow me to bump thee. I'm steppin tall yal and just like humpty dumpty, you're gonna fall when the stereos pump me. I like to rhyme I like my beat funky; I'm spunky, I like my oatmeal lumpy; I'm sick with this, straight gangsta mack. sometimes I get ridiculous.. Oh Do It Baby Do The Humpty Hump, Do The Humpty Hump.
yes we know it's 911 but we think the whole scenario was a fraud; so we don't play the game.
