Funkadelic – Cosmic Slop (Moodymann Mix)

Digital Crate Digging Continues on a Throwback Thursday; your dude is trying to be in compliance..

…to those principles; usually invincible going back to the future, showing defiance…

My reliance on the Lord has me cashing reality checks when I’m out here acting extra..

Pawn shop appliances? I board the mothership with them they’re used as weapons…

Roland drum machines / Yamaha keyboards? a brotha gets breakbeat scientiic especially after alien consultations..

This is what they meant by funk? demonstrated earlier now we’ve got other work to do listening to Funkadelic with Cosmic Slop (Moodymann Mix)

Oh so this is what they meant! demonstrated when we get breakbeat scientific..

Telma Hopkins is one of the background vocalists here. No wonder it was so funky!! Check it out!!
