Somebody did a long freestyle to this, an actual song, a rapper, forgot his name. He used this song, sampled it, looped the main melody of the chorus, the "I feel like pumpin' it up."
In 83 i was working in the studio with george . laying down the rap tracks for Nubian Nut..... and My solo project Dog Talk. (k 9 corp. featuring Pretty c. aka ME!) when i was asked to check out the demo for pumpin it up. before it was released. i knew then it was a hit. yet still very under rated.
@deadbabycasserole - I return from the meadow with a fellow named X.....2 turntables and a small component set. I had that tape in college. Good production by Cube.
.me and honey child said take a ride on my ten-speed, much to my dismay damn tire was flat. country girl i'll let you borrow my suburu, why when it's hot it's flat too!!
@defcreator I love finding the true makers of some of the beats i hear. I was just saying that I like lots of Del's beat and I found out that these guys invented it. Was just tryin to say that this is a sick song.
@ContraBond I'll but a ticket to THAT Party ANY TIME!!!!! Just let me know the where and when and my funky ass will be there early with all the fixins and mixins...know what i mean? It's time to party like we did back in the day and them some...what ever happend to those partys...huh?
I dare someone to get a DJ to play this in a major club on a Friday or Saturday night!!!...If they were smart...they would!!!...THE PLACE WOULD GO UP!!!....Let's try to get these young dj's to play this kind of stuff without mixing it with Lady Ka Ka or anyone like that...just play it straight up and see what TRUE FUNK can really do!!!!..Give us somethin we can really shake our ASS' too!!!...Thankyou!
@MrMedusaLvamp Yo G i got this joint off one time at this spot i was spinnin' at and all the ol shcoolers & funkateers went bananas!... Every chance i get i hit em' with the real... word up
the hydraulics and all that pumpin it up were too much for the cassette tape.I had this twice and the tapes got eaten over the years.I guess I abused the hell outta that s#$@ .
Nobody said X-Clan "Funkin' Lesson", it's the first thing that came to mind. And I think Low Profile (dub "c" of Westside Connection and Philly's D.J. Aladdin... yall are so wet behind the production ears...or maybe I'm too old-skool for ya!
Um, George and them weren't from out there. They were from the East coast but claimed Midwest. Same thang wit Zapp. They recorded all that gud shyt right here in the D, at Universal sounds on Second Ave. in Detroit, mahne. But it's o.k. ,we got enough sound to go 'round.
Arguably their best song. Catchy and dancable as anything. After 25 years, it's still got pop. Also don't forget the guitar solo that's like a cherry on top of a sundae.
Del tha Fonkee Homosapien had the best sample and alteration on this song. "What is a booty and how will I know when I'm shakin it....What is the funk and how will I know if I'm fakin it"
the hatred between blacks and hispanics was created by the media in the 80's. those two cultures actually share ALMOST all the same qualities and customs.
@MUN7001, it started with doowop group The Parliaments, their backing band became Funkadelic and later Parliament. The Parliafunkadelicmentthang or p-funk was the same group of musicians, the funk mob.
Search for "George Clinton (Parliament-Funkadelic) Exclusive!" from TopKatsTV for the whole story.
I think that's the answer - I'm fed up with radio. They've got their own agenda - the station's agenda, and I just can't be bothered with a lot of the stations any more. I NEVER hear this on radio, and never hear Sly and the Family Stone either - just the same old same old.
