@the_word_up_story (formerly of Cameo) Before “Word Up!” became a global anthem, Cameo were a hungry young band grinding through the 1970s funk scene — battling for recognition alongside giants like Earth, Wind & Fire, The Commodores, and Parliament-Funkadelic. In this first part of The Word Up Story, the founding members share how they came together, their early struggles in New York, and the creative drive that made Cameo one of the most distinctive sounds in funk history. 🎸🎤✨ #Cameo #WordUp
