Later that year, Whitfield, who also produced the song, took Papa Was a Rollin' Stone and remade it as a 12-minute record for The Temptations, which was a number-one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and won three Grammy Awards in 1973.

The rap group Run-D.M.C. re-worked and sampled Papa Was A Rollin' Stone for their song Papa Crazy, off their 1988 album Tougher Than Leather.
