In 1990, Was (Not Was) put out their album “Are You Okay?” which included the best version of “Papa Was a Rolling Stone I’ve heard. Take a listen for yourself…
…wait…first to the point…
The song includes a rap by G Love E and, thanks to some wonderful folks on the Net Tubes, I can now listen to three of G Love E’s other songs…all included below Papa… Continue Reading →
