@www.tvx.com.sv: One half of LMFAO is the son of Berry Gordy — the man who founded Motown Records. The label that launched Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Marvin Gaye, The Supremes, and The Temptations. One of the most important figures in the entire history of music. His son made Party Rock Anthem. Redfoo — real name Stefan Kendal Gordy — grew up as the son of a musical empire and chose to make EDM party music with his nephew SkyBlu. Not his brother. Not his friend. His nephew. Most people who were shuffling to this in 2011 had no idea they were watching a family act built on a Motown bloodline. Party Rock Anthem went to number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent six weeks there. The shuffling dance went global. Sorry For Party Rocking kept the momentum going. For a stretch in 2011 LMFAO were one of the biggest acts on earth and the entire time there was a direct line from their living room to the most legendary record label in history. Berry Gordy gave the world some of the most important music ever recorded. His son gave the world “everyday I’m shufflin’.” And somehow both of those legacies ended up mattering. What did you think the relationship between the two of them was before you found out? #lmfao #partyrockanthem #sorryforpartyrocking #motown #berrygordy
