Michael McDonald is one righteous brother. Well, technically, a Doobie brother, but you know what I mean. 😆 Check out his duets with Patti Labelle, "On My Own" and Aretha Franklin, "Ever Changing Times". He's also done one with Toni Braxton, James Ingram, and many others. Man is a vocal/songwriting GOAT. His collabs and solo singles are all worth a reaction, as well as his work with the Doobie Brothers. And yea, don't worry, that's a common reaction to the Warren G sample. lol I heard that track first too, and had the same reaction. There's actually a great mash-up on YT with the Warren G and Michael McDonald track combined. Surprisingly good.

Great jam! Michael McDonald's voice is instantly recognizable. He started off as a session singer on many classic albums, most notably Steely Dan's Aja album. He joined the Doobie Brothers and injected his jazzy/ soulful mix into their sound. His later solo work and collaboration s with other legends are also legendary. I saw him during his Motown album tour .....and he's phenomenal live.
@billtmarchi4320 2 жыл бұрын
I heard he was called in to help DLR on van havens song I'll wait" . Story goes David was stumped for lyrics so the producer called up michael macdonald to help out. And he came up with a few lines in it. But wasn't credited on the album. Was all worked out. And said he made more money of that 1/5 writers credit than all the Doobie bros money. Don't quote me but you can look it up.
