If you've been following this portion of my "Throwback of the Week" series, then you already know what time it is: "Lillo, Peabo, Lou Rawls, Teddy Pendergrass...TEDDY P!" The late, great Philly soul singer rounds out my aptly-named quartet, but I'm throwing y'all a curve ball: I'm not featuring "Close the Door"...kinda. I know, don't be so disappointed, but what person that calls themselves an R&B fan doesn't know that song? Besides, we do things a little different 'round here, slim. So I started thinking about Teddy P songs sampled in hip-hop songs, and I had quite a few choices. "Love TKO" is too easy and so is "Come Go With Me". Almost rolled with "Can't We Try", which was sampled in Ghostface Killah's "Camay". However, I dug a little more for a record that not everybody knows about but is still one of his better songs: "Easy, Easy, Got To Take It Easy".
