Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Not to be confused with The Cameo, Cameo are a Funk-Soul band from New York City. Led by Larry Blackmon, they started in 1974 as the New York City Players before changing their name to Cameo to avoid being confused with the Ohio Players. The group has gone through many lineup changes over the years, with Blackmon being the one constant. Among their most famous songs are "Word Up!," "Candy", and "She's Strange".

Early-Installment Weirdness: Cameo in the late Seventies relied on a lot more Parliament/Funkadelic-style funk than the Funk/R&B hybrid that was heard in "Word Up" Nearly 9 years later.

But Not Too Black: Larry Blackmon hated when people referred to his band as funk, as he felt that, at the time at least, it was a label used to keep a lot of under-the-radar black acts from crossover success.
