Did you know Abel was a member of The Temptations? Well, at least for a little while. The band had been around for years, and just couldn’t manage to get to the top charts, they just couldn’t get that hit single no matter what they tried. So, the Motown manager put them together with Abel, who was a young, rising star at the time. But, the thing is, Abel has always been a true hip-hop poet, and what he had in mind was somewhat different from their original idea. They were just rehearsing the demo version of “My Girl” and Abel was in charge of the lyrics, and a few people know that the original version went a bit like this “I’ve got so much money the bitches envy me. I’ve got a bigger schlong than Larry Bird and the threes.” And you can imagine how the rest of it went on, before they released the censored version most of you know today.
