the children of the funk era are all over and visible, u just gotta know what to look for.
For example, Hip hop is the place to be, hip is the knowledge, hop is the movement, hence, intelligent movement. Just cos theres loads of shit "rappers" out there in some countries, it doesnt mean its taken over and everyone thinks like them. Get me? live on the true funk.
@goldslum It's of "The Southern Roundabout" headed west on South Shore Road, Paget, Bermuda in December 1970. The Funkadelics - as they are still called in Bermuda - performed at several venues over the course of a month. They're 50cc Mobylettes.
Ever since the day they sampled James and other Funk artists, I always thought Gangsta Rappers, thug-hip hoppers were faking the Funk. They weren't musicians, they didn't even know the concept of the One. Fake-Funk I've called it. Still Is. Prince at the time, was like the last artist making True Funk with his Funk Bible, AKA The Black Album and he also called out rappers for what they are, frauds of Funk.
The only reason they sampled it was because Zapp was part of the gang culture.
@dgodajerk No, no, no... bring back True Funk back, none of that 'Hip-Sou' stuff, it doesn't mix. In order to have FUNK, pure FUNK, it requires knowing Blues, Soul, original R&B, Rock N Roll, Jazz, where do you think Hip Hop wants to know about that?! Its about real musicianship, thats the basis for Funk.
yeah... funkadelic is a treasure of music and soul that should never be forgotten,George Clinton has opened many hearts, minds,and asses of many afronots of the whole world, let it not stop now.
From 45:54 to 46:00. DAM!!! "Atomic Dog" & "Billie Jean" battling for the top spot. Two classic tracks from early 1983. They don't make R&B Jams like that anymore.
