Motown executives had to "approve every aspect of the series" and they rejected a number of writers' scripts before things met their approval.

Prior to this, animators regularly used Black jazz musicians Cab Calloway, Thomas "Fats" Waller, Louis Armstrong, Ethel Waters and Bill "Bojangles" Robinson as archetypes for a host of animals and people in animated features. Many of these caricatures reinforced stereotypes about Blacks' natural ability to dance and sing and their supposed animalistic nature.

Features Michael and Jackie, Jermaine, Marlon and Tito in silhouette in dance sequence


Between 1932 and 1955 twenty different film shorts featured a caricature of or reference to Cab Calloway.
