32. "I liked G Funk,,,, but I also knew it was fast food music" In response to In response to 31
and I think comparing Dam's music to G Funk is like comparing Sinnamon Love to Halle Berry because they are both light skinned black women. I really think there's much more to Dam's music but we might as well put this to bed because it's clear we hear this differently... and that's cool.
I hear the Prince influence... it's just not overt like The Dream & Carlos Mckinney. He's not so much trying to remake Prince (or Roger) records as he is bringing parts of their sounds in as a seasoning... Dam-Funk himself is the "meat".
And really this is bottom line here
"but of course we've already established that I'm not a fan of most of this "modern funk" stuff to begin with"
I respect that you feel that way too... but see you commenting on something like this Dam track really is like getting a steakhouse review from a vegetarian.
