The influence of Uncle Charlie Wilson on r&b and hip-hop is extraordinary. From being the main force in the legendary Gap Band, who's classic songs "Yearnin For Your Love", "Outstanding" and "Dropped A Bomb On Me" have been sampled in countless hip-hop, r&b and pop songs, to being featured on many newer artist's current songs.
Join DJ Synapse, who takes listeners through some of the greatest Charlie Wilson compisitions and Gap Band songs, and the songs that sampled them, as well as newer songs by Kanye West, T-Pain and Lil Kim that have featured the seminal r&b star.

Looking forward to the mix... found via @djintel
Gap Band have been influential on a lot of the music I spin and collect mostly out of availability. I was always more of a Thirft Store digger than a Record Store digger and Gap Band records were cheap and everywhere plus full of cuts! - just recently put an edit of a lesser known Gap 12" up on my page here - timzawada
