7. There is a very early warning in "The Air I Breathe", and "For the Love of Money". It would not have been a successful album, however, if all it contained was preaching and social commentary.

8. The "other" O'Jays album masterpiece, Ship Ahoy combined shattering message tracks and stunning love songs in a fashion matched only by Curtis Mayfield's finest material. From the album cover showing a slave ship to the memorable title song and incredible "For the Love of Money," Gamble and Huff addressed every social ill from envy to racism and greed.
