SHOW YOUR LOVE! A Happy Heavenly Birthday to the incomparable Garry "Diaper Man" Shider of @GeorgeClint Clinton and were certain members of Parliament that remain uncontested as stewards and lords of the foundation of funk and Shider was one of them. As co-writer of One Nation…
I'm actually on your side on this and he definitely was one of the firsts. But he chose his title as he saw best fit his music. No one can deny George's position as one of the pillars, if not the firm foundation.
YES! But The Funk World Regards Him as The Father Of Funk....................................Just Ask Bootsie Collins Who Played Bass For James Brown!

#CashAppFriday Yeah, I will do this all day long. Can use all the help I can get. $funkatopia!
Think that's a bit reductive. These are world class musicians playing the music that we love and in some cases that they were a part of. You should be thankful they're doing that for you.

Just know that Michael Bland and I sat on it for as long as we could. The word is out now. We’ll talk about it next Tuesday!
