    Son Of Superfly’s Girlfriend Is A Guitar Giant

    Posted by JB
    Superfly’s girlfriend in the 1972 film is none other than the beautiful and talented Sheila Frazier.

    She came out recently to NYC’s Sweet Rhythm with her son Derek McKeith, to help congratulate him and spread the word about his new release.
    In an interview with Kam Williams she spoke of her son saying, “Yes I have a son, Derek McKeith from a previous marriage. Talk about talent! I’m really proud of Derek. He’s a music performer, writer and producer. He has a band with a unique sound. Whenever I’ve had the opportunity to see him perform I can only think, ‘Wow, he’s better than I could have ever been.’ It seems that his audiences think so, too.” We’ve got photos and links to video from the night.

    Plenty of celebs turned out to support him as he rocked some of the songs from his upcoming CD “The Signature.” Backed by the Bernard Davis Band and Company, he received a standing ovation. Other performers for the night included spoken word/hip hop artist One Sun Lion Ra (son of Lou Wilson of Mandrill) and neo soul recording artist Kendal. McKeith’s CD will drop this month.
    You can check out video from the showcase via legendary NYC deejay Ken ‘Spider’ Webb’s site: www.KenWebb.com and choose channel 1 or go directly to the video #1 HERE.

    :heart: As you can see Sheila is still looking good & has been remarried for about a year now.

    Francie, have you heard what happened to him? He was declared bankrupt, and lost his house, and most of his belongings..I think the Tax man caught up with him..

    He should have never tried to be a musician; he lost all credibility when he tried that. The rapping is laughable.
