Timeline

1983

Gary Byrd and the GB Experience was an American male/female vocal/instrumental group, who had a single titled "The Crown", in the UK Singles Chart. It was released on the Motown label, entered the chart on 23 July 1983 at number 21, and rose to a high of number 6; it remained in the chart for 9 weeks. It had previously been released in the US on Stevie Wonder's short-lived Wondirection label but did not receive the proper promotion because its release coincided with the purchase of Motown by MCA Records, where the small label was overlooked.

1982

Byrd is also a poet, author, performer, spoken word artist, and lyricist. A collaborator with Stevie Wonder, Byrd served as lyricist on Wonder’s "Village Ghetto Land" and "Black Man" on his album Songs in the Key of Life. Byrd also co-wrote three other songs with Wonder--"Dark N Lovely," a tribute to the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa, “Front Line,” from the 1982 Stevie Wonder's Original Musiquarium I album, and "Misrepresented People," for the soundtrack of Spike Lee’s movie Bamboozled, in which Byrd appears, playing himself as a radio talk show host. Over the years, his music has been sampled and covered by high profile artists. George Michael performed "Village Ghetto Land" at a special London tribute to Nelson Mandela, where Wonder sang "Dark-N-Lovely." Byrd has also written songs for other artists from Kurtis Blow’s "Feelin Good" to "I Cry" for Millie Jackson, which have been sampled dozens of times by a long list of hip hop artists including 50 Cent, Nas and several others.
