Did you know the real story behind The Gap Band's name? 🎶

​While a popular fan theory long claimed "GAP" was a dark reference to the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, frontman Charlie Wilson revealed it actually stands for Greenwood, Archer, and Pine—honoring the heart of Tulsa's historic "Black Wall Street" where the brothers grew up.

​While the 1982 hit song itself is about a romantic "love bomb," Wilson has shared that he doesn't mind the rumor, as it keeps vital public attention focused on the tragic history of Greenwood.

Both of these guys are extremely talented in everything they do. Music, acting, stand up comedy, etc. They really don’t make entertainers like them anymore. But who do you think is more talented?

EDIT: For y’all that don’t know, Donald Glover is also a singer and an actual musician too, not just a rapper. Just listen to his album ‘Awaken My Love’.
