Dad as a prolific multi-platinum singer, songwriter and drummer who co-wrote the many hits including The #CiscoKid, #WhyCantWeBeFriends, #SpillTheWine, #TheWorldIsAGhetto and #LowRider, a song co-composed and performed by Harold and his bandmates in the 1970's was inducted into the 2014 Grammy Hall of Fame (@thegrammys).
