I just noticed that what I've been singing to myself is Slide Some Oil To Me from The Wiz. 😂

Casting Nipsey Russell as the Tin Man in the film was an absolute stroke of genius.

Rewatching #TheWiz reminds me that #NipseyRussell was so much more than that Black guy on those game shows.

Dude had all the skills; singing, dancing; acting; comedic timing; every thing a star needed to have.

Except a lighter shade of skin tone.
