    I feel like this is one of the handful or so of songs that kicked off the '90s. It was basically shutting the door on the '80s and kicking off a new era in music, and you could just feel the change happening.

    This group was produced in Germany, and is considered part of the Eurodance genre that was big in late 80s/early 90s. The woman you see in this video is not the original singer. Penny Ford, the original singer, one day woke up to find out the song was blowing up on the charts and another girl was placed in the music video lip syncing to her part. She was later integrated into the group after she escalated the matter.

  • @monolithic87
    @monolithic87 Před 2 lety +20

    This track was made off of Chill Rob G's version of 'The Power' with lyrics from 'Let The Words Flow'. It's a complicated story but Chill Rob G made the original version but the people who produced the track had this dude, who has a similar sounding voice, come in and put his rap on it and released it at the same time. Actually, you can still hear Chill Rob G say, "It's gettin' kinda hectic" at 3:55. This version blew up, Chill Rob G's didn't. He didn't even get paid from this shit. Foul situation. 👎🏽

    • @thomasmcginnis2782
      @thomasmcginnis2782 Před 2 lety +7

      Chill Rob G (on Wild Pitch Records) was seriously slept on...Positive message with a little street flavor and a voice similar in strength and depth to Chuck D of Public Enemy. I strongly believe that this is one of the early times where "the industry" chose to make a "pop" version of a "destined for greatness" song in order to hide the shine and prophetic voice of a true MC.

    • @Plexpara
      @Plexpara Před rokem +1

      Chill Rob never had a Version of the Power. And Chill rob did not make the Original.
      Snap used His rap from let the words flow. but later he dont want that. so tehy change the rapper. then chill rob saw the song goes up like a rocket and now he wanted to be a part of it. if you look at his version on his album you will see who made that sonf..the snape producers.
      he could not release the power cause it was NOT his song. so he had to make a deal with them and mention them as the real producers.
      get facts before you allways talk random things.

But when they performed this on Showtime at the Apollo she was there. I love her voice. She did a great remake of Aretha Franklin's "Daydreaming".
