Alongside the previously announced âBasement Blendersâ album by
@joe.genaro and
@rother06 , Jett Plastic is pleased, proud and elated to announce the forthcoming release of âThe Emperor Has No Clonesâ by the
@420funkmob !
Initially, the 420 Funk Mob was the off days project of Mike âClipâ Payne, longtime Parliament-Funkadelic vocalist whoâs performed with the collective since 1977. After more than twenty years of assembling tracks and performing, Payne readied the release of this fourteen track album that not only brings the real P-Funk power but immediately sounds just as great as the classic records everyone knows and loves.
To prepare the album, Payne enlisted the help of his friends in the P-Funk tribe, including Mike âKidd Funkadelicâ Hampton, Garry Shider, Lige Curry (
@ligedelic ), Amp Fiddler (
@amp_fiddler RIP), Greg Boyer, Danny Bedrosian (
@dannybedrosian ), and Gabe âUndi$co Kiddâ Gonzalez (
@gabegonzalez ). The lineup sports a âwhoâs whoâ of funk legends while not sounding cramped in any capacity.
Of course, it couldnât be a P-Funk record without DR. FUNKENSTEIN GEORGE CLINTON (
@yolikegeorge ), who appears on the album alongside his co-producer role.
Weâre honored to finally bring the P-Funk to Jett Plastic and this release is planned as the first in a long line of upcoming funk heavy releases. We know itâs been a while since weâve released anything, but life gets in the way and, as it turns out, releases take a long time to prepare for. Thank you to Clip (
@clipadelic ) for trusting Jett Plastic to bring this record to the masses.
âThe Emperor Has No Clonesâ will be in stores on July 10, just in time to get you into your summer funk.
