A funk anthem that never lost its shine... Jean Knight brought fire and flair to “Mr. Big Stuff”.
@SVG__Collection 🎶Big stuff 🎶Big hair 🎶Big tune
@SVG__Collection My Tanzanian mother used to sing this song around the house! #Memories I wonder if Ms. Jean knew how far her star traveled around the planet! 🫶🏾🙏🏾🫶🏾🙏🏾🫶🏾
@SVG__Collection Yes! It was an anthem of Black women who were finding their voices in the early Women's Mvmt. Black women had 2get the message across through music & lyrics tht spoke their truth! We could sing "Ain't No Way" by Aretha,thn break out"Mr.Big Stuff"at the same party&It worked!😂😂😂
@SVG__Collection Ladies and gentlemen here we have one of the original “Bouffants.” 😂😂. #Iconic song! 🎶 🔥
@SVG__Collection Great song should’ve been called Mrs. Big Hair
@SVG__Collection Not to mention the beehive bouffant hair Mr Big stuff fire and flair..😎
@SVG__Collection Thank you for this!! I so remember watching this!! Loved it and still do.
@SVG__Collection Early 70s = Peak American Music Culture. Remember how everyone just loved one another. Pure, Raw, and a vibe of Soul that has not been equalled since. Thank you for posting.
@SVG__Collection I’ve seen that hairstyle before
Generational tune!! I love the fact it spawned several shout back tunes: including Vicky Anderson, who was backing for James Brown youtu.be/NklcoLu4w4w?si… Also Millie Jackson – “I’m a Little Too Much for Mr. Big Stuff (Oh Yes I Am)” but I can’t find that one, anyone got a link?
@SVG__Collection Thanks for posting… I had forgotten this classic!
@SVG__Collection It’s a pity this record doesn’t get played as often as other 1970s hits, eg Hotel California (ugh).
@SVG__Collection @AZAnnie_2021 Memory lane! 💃🏾 🕺🏿
@SVG__Collection I had this on a 33 single in 6th grade and wore it out!
@SVG__Collection You guys are the best muthafukkin' dancers
@SVG__Collection Soul Train may have been the greatest tv show of all time.
@SVG__Collection Eu sei que na música, existe evolução através do tempo e da percepção dos novos artistas. Mas, vou falar uma coisa meu bem, se os novos talentos horassem o legado dessas estrelas fabulosas. Nossa música nunca perderia o brilho.
@SVG__Collection These are the magnificent descendants of *ENSLAVED* Africans. The most influential people on the face of the earth.
@SVG__Collection This music will always be make me think of him backwards dancing…
@SVG__Collection Did you notice her hair.
@SVG__Collection My all time favorite joint. Start every day like this ladies and you’ll conquer the world. I cried like a sobbing snotty child when Jean traveled on. There’s no better funk by any woman. She was The Stuff!
@SVG__Collection Jasmine Sullivan in another lifetime
@SVG__Collection A memory that comes to mind every time I hear this song is me playing my orange squirt gun, shooting out the window at out fire escape while this song played on the radio.
@SVG__Collection Me: "That Don't Impress Me Much".
