ORIGINAL J5 EPISODES: G FUNK
J5 is taking some time to work on new podcast episodes, so the two months will feature flashbacks to the good ol' days at BLR...
J5 1.12: P FUNK, G FUNK, WE FUNK
23Mar11
Funk gets people to dance. It was the perfect music to sample and loop for hip hop producers. The songs were long, included musician solos and heavy use of bass and synths. Oakland and the Bay was a special place for this music. Digital Underground, Too Short, Khayree for Mac Dre and Mac Mall all made heavy use of funk. This show will feature funk, p funk, and g funk!
"Whatever I play, it's got to be funky"
