When Earth, Wind & Fire dropped “In the Stone” in 1979, they weren’t just making music—they were making a statement. Off their I Am album, this joint comes in strong with blasting horns, rich vocals, and that signature EWF groove that hits your soul and lifts your spirit.
Written by the legendary Maurice White, along with David Foster and Allee Willis, “In the Stone” isn’t just a song—it’s a declaration. It talks about love, legacy, and truth being written deep, like it’s carved in stone—unchangeable, eternal. The energy is big, bold, and cinematic, making it a favorite for everything from halftime shows to soul cookouts.
It might not have been a chart-topping single, but in the streets and in the hearts of real fans, this one’s a classic. “In the Stone” is EWF doing what they do best: turning funk, soul, and message into pure magic.
