    A movie about him came out it this year and it was called "Sly Lives!". Glad they got it out in time so it didn't have to be titled "Sly Dies!"I finished his recent autobiography earlier this year - very one-sided and he didn't spill much tea - great story though.

    Docu was directed by ?uestlove and is on Hulu…

    Produced by an old writing/journalism colleague of mine, too.

    The duo previously worked together on Summer of Soul.

    RIP you beautiful legend. Easily one of my favorite performers of all time.

    Sucks that he’s relegated to MBM while that beach dork gets PR treatment.
    Remind me. We'll send him a red cap and a Speedo.
