In another thread, @Bck145 balked at the idea that Kool & The Gang could possibly be better than The Beatles. What he doesn't know is that Kool & The Gang had enormous success throughout the 70s and 80s selling over 70 million records, number one hits and platinum records

Hahaha you salty dude, still talking about kook and the gang, your post are straight comedy
-
I heard Kool and the Gang have a few lawyers whose only job is going after rappers that sampled without clearance.
-
Bruh. I don't know how many groups that Kool & the Gang inspired, but I can tell you must definitely that the Beatles have been the inspiration for damn near every musical act after them, especially in the 70's and 80's. Also, the Beatles have inspired acts across musical genres.
Kool & the Gang is cool, but r&B groups didn't want to be Kool in the Gang. R&B groups either wanted to be Parliament, The Temptations, or MJ. Everybody wanted to be the ? Beatles, (and this included groups in different musical genres.
The Beatles changed the course of music, the way music was made, how musicians thought about music, and what musicians thought was possible about music. Can you say the same about Kool & the Gang? Kool & the Gang weren't even the most influential band during their prime, while The Beatles were the most influential band during and after their run prime. Paul McCarthy is still dropping albums with contemporary artist of today. J.T. last album was released 15 years ago. Hell, even Ringo dropped an album in April that debuted on the Billboard 200 at 99.
Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr are both septuagenarians that can sell out stadiums by doing songs made a half a century ago. If you say, John, Paul, George, and Ringo, most people know who the ? you're talking about. Most people have a varied taste in music can name at least ten Beatles songs. Hell, I grew up on Kool & the Gang, and I can only name in and around 5.
The Beatles had, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, With a Little Help from My Friends, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, With or Without You, A Day in the Life and When I'm Sixty-Four all on the same damn album. Kool & Gang basically stayed in their musical lane.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbY_oFHqdgs
Helter Skelter-The Beatles, this song started entire genre of music, can Kool & the Gang make that claim? The Beatles also inspired
Dude, don't think that I'm shittin' on Kool & the Gang because I'm not. They were a great band, but say they were better than the Beatles? Really bruh? There's only a handful of musical acts that can be mentioned in the same breathe as the Beatles, and those are the Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Zepplin, MJ, Elton John, Billy Joel, James Brown, and possibly Metallica.
There's nothing in the realm of popular music that's comparable to the Beatles and the impact and influence that had and continue to have. When you're talking about the greatest bands, there's the Beatles, then everybody else. The Beatles can literally release an album next week full of throw away songs and that ? will debut on the Billboard 200 at #1. You can say a lot of things are overrated, but the Beatles isn't one of them.

Inb4 the pure comedy response that's soon yo follow

While I agree that The Beatles are hailed as the GOAT group of all time by some White people, their music doesn't fly in the Black community. Before you accuse me of "being racist". I'll come out and say it; I've observed differences in the way that Blacks and Whites judge music. Music that doesn't get any play in the Black community is considered exceptional by Whites (i.e. Heavy Metal). You could go to a White wedding and if there's a band or DJ you'd be likely to hear something by The Beatles. You'd never hear anything by the Beatles at a Black wedding. Never.
Nightclubs or bars that cater to the Black community aren't going to play anything by The Beatles. Plain and simply, the Beatles and their music isn't held in high regard by the Black community. We consider it White people music. Their music doesn't have any flavor or soul and would clear a dance floor in 10 seconds flat in any club or party thats predominately African American.
In contrast, there are artists and groups that are held in high regard by the Black community, groups that have classic songs and albums that might not get as much critical acclaim from White music critics and/or editors but you could play them at an all Black party/nightclub and the dance floor will be packed (e.g. Before I Let Go by Frankie Beverly & Maze). This is a fact. Kool & The Gang is one of those groups. You can play Jungle Boogie, Hollywood Swingin, Ladies Night or Celebration at a cookout or a wedding and the dance floor will be packed. There's not one song in the Beatles entire catalog that you could play at an all Black cookout, party, nightclub or wedding that would produce similar results. And that's a scientific fact.
Its really a matter of "culture vultures". White people, as a whole perpetuate the doctrine and/or concept that they produce music that is equal to or better than Black music when deep down we all know that isn't true. At best they imitate Black music.
While I agree that the media has shoved the Beatles down our throats in a feeble attempt to convince the masses that they're the all time greatest band of all time, all one has to do is simply forget what you've been told and listen to the music. Just listen.
You say that The Beatles had a tremendous impact and influence, but just consider how many people have sampled Kool & The Gang. Look at the list of songs I posted in the O/P. Seriously, thats just about every group/rapper you can think of from every region.
Anyway, I remember when Kool & The Gang was hot in the 80s. They had a string of hits when I was a kid. But I didn't know that they had been around since the 60s. When I started making beats I started collecting funk and soul albums from the 70s to sample and I slowly started collecting their albums. I finally completed my Kool & The Gang record collection about last year when I copped their first album. Its self titled and came out in 1969.
This is their discography;
1. Kool & The Gang (1969)
2. The Best of Kool & the Gang (1971)
3. Live at the Sex Machine (1971)
4. Live at P.J.s (1971)
5. Music Is The Message (1972)
6. Good Times (1972)
7. Wild & Peaceful (1973)
8. Kool Jazz (1973)
9. Light of The Worlds (1974)
10. Spirit of The Boogie (1975)
11. Greatest Hits (1975)
^^^ That's their funkier stuff. All of those albums are funky as hell and contain samples from songs that you've probably heard before. The better ones are in bold imo. I'd say the three best are Live at The Sex Machine and Live at P.J.s, and the Greatest Hits album.
Then they switched to more of a dance/disco/top 40 style. They started to cross over and appeal to the top 40 crowd.
12. Love & Understanding (1976)
13. Open Sesame (1976)
14. The Force (1977)
15. Everybody's Dancin (1978)
16. Ladies Night (1979)
17. Celebrate (1980)
18. Something Special (1981)
19. As One (1982)
20. In The Heart (1983)
21. Emergency (1984)
22. Forever (1986)
From Wikipedia
The band first hit the US Billboard R&B chart with the release of their debut eponymous album. Several live and studio albums followed, with 1973's Wild and Peaceful breaking into the mainstream with "Funky Stuff", "Jungle Boogie" and "Hollywood Swinging"."Jungle Boogie" and "Hollywood Swinging" both sold over one million copies, and each was awarded a gold disc by the RIAA. Many reviews see the Gang's 1974 album Light of Worlds and 1975 album Spirit of the Boogie as the greatest achievements of the band, with the 1975 single "Summer Madness" gaining much attention.
The late 1970s saw a lull in Kool & the Gang's output except for the album Open Sesame, which yielded the title track "Open Sesame", achieving some success as part of the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack and winning a Grammy Award. New lead singer James "J.T." Taylor then joined the group, starting with 1979's Ladies' Night. Their number one hit in 1980s "Celebration" was from Celebrate!, co-produced by Eumir Deodato. More international hits followed in the early 1980s, including "Big Fun", "Get Down on It", and "Joanna". Their 1984 album Emergency yielded four top-20 pop hits, including "Fresh" and "Cherish". Their chart presence stopped after Forever.
When its all said and done, they certainly have a thorough discography. The comparison to The Beatles might seem ill-matched and/or uneven to those that haven't listened to their albums. But I refer any and all naysayers to listen to Live at The Sex Machine (1971), Live at P.J.s (1971) and Greatest Hits (1975). That's their 3 best albums imo.
In conclusion, you've been brainwashed. There's a conspiracy within the media to propagate the idea that White bands such as The Beatles make superior music. The media is powerful. They can convince you to believe things that aren't true.
Last but not least, I'll leave you with this;
Summer Madness - Kool & The Gang

Summer Madness one of the hardest beats ive ever heard

Mane yall gtfoh with that Beatles ? , if yall think they the best thats cool
but we talkin bout a group here who been sampled hundreds of time in Hip Hop
Who made funk & Soul music which would go on to influence Hip Hop
Mufuckas in the 70's wasnt spinning breaks from Beatles Records
It was tracks by James Brown, Curtis Mayfield, Issac Hayes, Earth, Wind & Fire, Kool & The Gang etc
That was being played at those parties and later being sampled to create RAP music
Now in the world of Pop & Rock music the Beatles far more influentual but i aint apart of that culture

While I agree that The Beatles are hailed as the GOAT group of all time by some White people, their music doesn't fly in the Black community. Before you accuse me of "being racist". I'll come out and say it; I've observed differences in the way that Blacks and Whites judge music. Music that doesn't get any play in the Black community is considered exceptional by Whites (i.e. Heavy Metal). You could go to a White wedding and if there's a band or DJ you'd be likely to hear something by The Beatles. You'd never hear anything by the Beatles at a Black wedding. Never.
Nightclubs or bars that cater to the Black community aren't going to play anything by The Beatles. Plain and simply, the Beatles and their music isn't held in high regard by the Black community. We consider it White people music. Their music doesn't have any flavor or soul and would clear a dance floor in 10 seconds flat in any club or party thats predominately African American.

I don't know how many groups that Kool & the Gang inspired, but I can tell you must definitely that the Beatles have been the inspiration for damn near every musical act after them, especially in the 70's and 80's. Also, the Beatles have inspired acts across musical genres.
Kool & the Gang is cool, but r&B groups didn't want to be Kool in the Gang. R&B groups either wanted to be Parliament, The Temptations, or MJ. Everybody wanted to be the ? Beatles, (and this included groups in different musical genres.
The Beatles changed the course of music, the way music was made, how musicians thought about music, and what musicians thought was possible about music. Can you say the same about Kool & the Gang? Kool & the Gang weren't even the most influential band during their prime, while The Beatles were the most influential band during and after their run prime. Paul McCarthy is still dropping albums with contemporary artist of today. J.T. last album was released 15 years ago. Hell, even Ringo dropped an album in April that debuted on the Billboard 200 at 99.
Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr are both septuagenarians that can sell out stadiums by doing songs made a half a century ago. If you say, John, Paul, George, and Ringo, most people know who the ? you're talking about. Most people have a varied taste in music can name at least ten Beatles songs. Hell, I grew up on Kool & the Gang, and I can only name in and around 5.
The Beatles had, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, With a Little Help from My Friends, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, With or Without You, A Day in the Life and When I'm Sixty-Four all on the same damn album. Kool & Gang basically stayed in their musical lane.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbY_oFHqdgs
Helter Skelter-The Beatles, this song started entire genre of music, can Kool & the Gang make that claim? The Beatles also inspired
Dude, don't think that I'm shittin' on Kool & the Gang because I'm not. They were a great band, but say they were better than the Beatles? Really bruh? There's only a handful of musical acts that can be mentioned in the same breathe as the Beatles, and those are the Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Zepplin, MJ, Elton John, Billy Joel, James Brown, and possibly Metallica.
There's nothing in the realm of popular music that's comparable to the Beatles and the impact and influence that had and continue to have. When you're talking about the greatest bands, there's the Beatles, then everybody else. The Beatles can literally release an album next week full of throw away songs and that ? will debut on the Billboard 200 at #1. You can say a lot of things are overrated, but the Beatles isn't one of them.
Liar. Shut yo ass up.
The Beatles? GTFOH.
They were a pop act adorned by WHITES. No more, no less.
