May 29, 2011 - I think it's a great scene right now. Women are singing about their favorite subject BAD BOYS LIKE ME ! LOL. and god bless em for it. Amy is herself a bad girl, that's her trouble. Sharon and Adele are good girls! I think there's room for all of them! It's a great scene in music right now man. I like SJ and the DK's the best because of the total statement they make about being real and staying true.

May 29, 2011 - @wolftigerrosebud I respect the thoughtful comparison to the Funk Brothers. But to be fair, the DK's have been working together as a unit for a good stretch. The Funk Brothers also did, but had 15 more years together by the time they were recording hits like the DK's are now. You gotta let these guys grow a little.You can tell they're a BAND man. Let it grow. They've only been in the spotlight for a little while compared to the Funk Bros. (Early Motown was NOT as great as mid sixties motown!)

Jul 24, 2011 - This woman is definitely talented and hasn't had the recognition or success that she deserves, probably because she isn't a young white girl. That being said Amy Winehouse was a talented singer and it is a shame she is dead.

cheyelleomar Says:

Jul 25, 2011 - Yeah, I agree; it is sad that she [Winehouse] couldn't beat her addiction to drugs and alcohol.

Sep 4, 2011 - it's a shame she ain't famous. she can sing better than Adele and Amy Winehouse. Maybe if she were young and white we wouldn't have to google her name to know who she is.

Oct 28, 2011 - Baddest fucking band on earth..They always sound so fucking amazing.

BeatProfessor Says:

Nov 18, 2011 - White has nothing to do with it. Look at Cee-Lo. Good music is good music, but the problem is that quality music is not what's being put into the younger generations' ears. Instead, writers recycle previously used material and the clowns that are on the radio dress in hipster garb to appeal to the visual generation.

Nov 25, 2011 - Sick of people bringing up Amy and Adele and throwing shade. All three of them are fucking amazing. If you've got problems, buy more of their records and spread the damn word.

Dec 11, 2011 - right on!

albarakareggae Says:

Dec 25, 2011 - Yeah man, no doubt she's bigger than all the rest!!!

NightGypsie Says:

Dec 26, 2011 - Certainly, Cee-lo is black, fat and short, but he is a MAN, not a black woman. There is a standard of beauty in our world, and it is typically white and young that sets this standard. Sharon is not either, so she doesn't achieve the same fame! And certainly, you can't judge a black female standard by comparing a BLACK MAN. In that case, I can say white women never suffer gender discrimination at work because white men don't suffer it! Idiot!

BeatProfessor Says:

Dec 26, 2011 - Your bad breath reeks of racism and sexism. There are plenty of artists from ALL races and BOTH genders that have refuted everything that you said. All I was trying to say is that race has nothing to do with it and The DapTones' music is GOOD but it can't be pigeonholed into a genre that's getting mass radio play. Where are the suits going to put it? On the oldies channel? And don't toss around venomous name calling based on 1 comment, it makes you look like an adolescent.

dionreload Says:

Jan 12, 2012 - Its all about the genre mannn come oonnn, she isn't waitin for fans like adele has. Us is who she needs you can't get more out of this style.

yding82 Says:

Jan 20, 2012 - thank you sharon jones and thank you dao king

iBigWiLL Says:

Feb 29, 2012 - Tell that to Oprah & Aretha Franklin... This style of music is "sadly" dying.. You sound so disgustingly ignorant that it's pretty hard to even want to comment at your stubborn, "RACIST" comment.. Stop pulling the racial card.. the white man that enslaved your ancestors is the same one that fought for your ancestors freedom.. Maybe you should worry about yourself and not "The Man bringing you down" Racist won't die, because people like YOU won't let it

Apr 6, 2012 - Not famous?

DeJongMusic Says:

Apr 6, 2012 - DYK:This is the same band that accompanied Amy Winehouse?

droid740 Says:

May 1, 2012 - No offense dude, but there's a difference between the fame that's already burning out in Adele's case, and expired in Amy's case. Sharon's not famous. She's a LEGEND dude. You'll see her killing it on late night in 20 years as well she is now. There's fame, and there's those that know quality and longevity. I can remember when Hanson was a hot group, just as an example of "fame" being a bad meter.
