RnB and Funk Music Thread

Postby Oldies Rule Forever1 on Sun, Jan 20 2008, 2:45 AM

I myself simply love RnB and Funk music. From groups like the Temptations and artists like Marvin Gaye to Earth, Wind and Fire to James Brown to Prince to Jodeci and Boyz II Men, to R Kelly to Rick James and Teena Marie to Morris Day and the Time, I rock it all, and more!

Hopefully there are other RnB and Funk cats out there.




Right now I'm really diggin' Raheem Devaughn. Labeled as Neo Soul, but really, its just dope music.
Another is Donell Jones and Avant.

I love some 70's soul funk !!!
i love 90's R&B :D
there's some good stuff out now too just harder to find in my opinion
sharon jones and the dap kings have some good stuff too :D

there is this one song by james brown that i am trying to find
"Gonna have a funky good time"
I found it but I can't find the common version that is played by DJ's and stuff????

The Time is one of my all time favorite bands. Got that funk to rock the dancefloor. My mom and tio used to bump these jams back in the early 80s and I'd be loving it sitting in the back seat pretending I was going clubbing!
