Producer Profile

CURTISMAYFIELD

Funk/Soul1960s–1980s

About

Curtis Mayfield was one of soul music's greatest writer-producers, creating tightly constructed social commentaries over lush, string-laden arrangements. His Super Fly soundtrack is the most acclaimed blaxploitation score and one of the most sampled albums in hip hop. His falsetto vocal style and altered guitar tunings are immediately identifiable.
