VERDINE WHITE (Earth, Wind & Fire): Wife, 2 Children, Mansion, Cars, Net Worth 2024 - Sad Story 

The greatest group of all times!

@@cindyb2525 absolutely!! No other band has ever been better than The Elements EWF is the soundtrack to life as we know it

Agreed. September will aways be my favorite. Verdine had so much energy back then and was all over that stage 😊 I had no idea he was Maurice's(lead singer) brother. Rest in Peace, Maurice.

I'll bet everything that his net worth is much more than $10mil.... and he certainly deserves it.

Verdine

And Fred,rip

They actually had a couple more brothers and sisters.

And Fred...

@@clarencejohnson2737 And Monte…

Rest In Peace Freddie😞

Yes it was definitely him

No. Earth Wind & Fire would have never happened without Maurice White, the founder & genius who picked out the performers by hand & formulated their sound. He invited his younger brother Verdine to come to California & join the band. This was Maurice's concept & baby, not Verdine.

That's not his house. This video is inaccurate garbage. Intentionally misleading.

Yeah let’s let all the brothers ride under the radar.

Absolutely! The voice narration is total crap too.

This video sucks . The dialogue completely disjointed. The script is laughable . Pieced together with infomercial material and robotic voice over annunciation of simple words like-“ the bass “ fish pronunciations at a tuna tournament….🐟

Because when they became famous, they were always asked why they have different last names. They have different fathers, but Mr Adams loved Maurice and took him in as his own.

He does not lnow anything about him.

Children?

@TonyLee. Bro,' I've been an avocational musician for ~ the same length of time. (Studied music formally from Grades 4-12. Then was a music minor in college). I've written some lengthy thoughts on this same topic here on YT over the past 2-3 yrs. In summary, I AGREE WITH YOUR ASSESSMENT. There have been rumors for years that Louis Satterfield (or other session bassists) recorded the bass tracks on A LOT of the beloved EWF hits. The clues just don't "add up" mane. I've tried finding clips online where Verdine gives flashes of some bass virtuosity. They just do not seem to exist. Then, how can you dance around doing semi-complex choreography moves & still never even get out of the pocket with the drummer? I concluded (some years ago) that they're using sequenced bass tracks when they perform live. 🤷🏾‍♂️

@SoundScientist1 Exactly! Verdine is there only for his vibe, not his "musicianship". As you concur, there are no videos of him playing as we see with countless other legit players. Again, I love EWF music, but Verdine isn't the guy on the records!! Somebody prove me wrong, please. I want to be wrong, but I'm not!

Don’t know how things are with EWF and Verdine White nowadays. Changing bands and genres took me someplace else on my musical journey. Didnt play much EWF after. I saw EWF back in HS (mid-70’s) and he was amazing. He definitely played his parts then. He was the real deal.

Being a playing virtuoso may not be his strength. But he's certainly a virtuoso in composition, bass theory and creating funky bass riffs. The bottom line is that he has a mansion. He wins. Who did you say you were again?😂😂😂

@@Nclght. Nobody would refute that Verdine is a master "SHOWMAN." However, you apparently don't know much about EWF & their typical song composing, writing, arranging, & production process. The late Maurice White, Charles Stepney, & Louis Satterfield composed, arranged, & wrote MOST of EWF's hit tunes (including the bass lines).

Are you really this stupid I guess you take away Ron Isley the Isley brothers are pure garbage your logic is awful
