massive props to Bootsy Collins for keepin it funky for decades.

[@johngerald8808]

That's what he does 💯!! Love ya Bootsy!

[@davidtoups4684]

Hard to believe he's 70!

[@torpedoboy4]

dude, hasn't aged either!

'Hip Hop Lollipop with Fantaazma' in 2022, 'Wind Me Up with Chicago's Contemporary Youth Orchestra' in 2013, 'Weapon of Choice with Fat Boy Slim' in 2001, and 'Groove is in the Heart- with Deee-Lite in 1990' - That is one helluva a history of collaboration

[@MarkasTZM]

Lady Miss Kier says "You're welcome"

[@daleamaral5195]

I graduated highschool in 1974, Kool and the Gang, Parliament Funkadelics The Commadores, Ohio Players, Brass Costruction, The Blackbyrds, James Brown and the JBs,The Dazz Band, The Kay Gees, Bazooka, Funk was everywhere. Curtis Mayfield, Sly Stone, Stevie Wonder, James Brown, and Issac Hayes, were the architects. Hell, l'll name every one of the songs the architects recorded to prove it. The 70s were the Golden Age of Funk. And Bootsy is still " doin it to death." Thank you. Almost forgot Joe Simon. Chaka Khan and Rufus.

[@devinm8128]

Criminally underrated tune

[@scooter979represent]

I’m a metal head all the way but man this beat had my foot tapping. Thumbs up man

[@joesalyers]

Bootsy Collins is 70 years old and still throwing down!!! Making actual music you can crank up and EVERYONE IN THE ROOM LIKES IT! Hey young musicians take notes, nothing like real musicians playing to make you move!! Energy over electronics!!

[@jodibrooklyn1033]

💯💯💯

[@superbug1977]

Your observations are spot on. This drags the funk experience into a new era and also provides new relevance for a vintage (and sometimes tired) genre -- I can't believe how good it is, and how contemporary.

[@logansummers1551]

@Rusty Gears Stop making excuses for your shit music. Do you actually play something or do you press a button for that repetitive one note bass that all this gang member rap is about? That's not fucking music. There's a difference between playing something and using programmed beats and notes. There's also the quality of lyrics.

[@jharekcarnelian]

@Rusty Gears For an example of someone before bootsy blurring the line between 'real instrument' and everything else look up Hendrix's version of the The Star Spangled Banner from The Rainbow Bridge album. Not his famous Woodstock version, this is a much less-well known version where Jimi has about a billion tacks of sped up and and mucked around guitars going on at once. People like Bootsy and Jimi tend to learn the rule book and then realize it's a rule book and take it over to the window and throw it out...

[@ShuKatashSam]

I saw him back in the 1980's as a teenager, damn. Huge band of nothing but pure talent on the stage with him. Whole place was moving. Wah effects on the bass for days. This bass line is classic greatness and it's up to date with the music in 2020's, 40 years later. Fantaazma is awesome for this. Two funky thumbs up!

[@dighawaii1]

The WOOT!!!!

[@strongbundles6577]

She sounds like left eye! 😎 ❤️🙏🏿

[@RandyInCT]

This is great! Fantaazma has a real hot Nina Hagen vibe!

[@timbattig6713]

Absolutely! I knew nothing about her prior to a few minutes ago right after I heard this track. My first thought was how did Nina Hagen get on this track ... and then I looked up Fantaazma. Ah, she's German ... now I get it!

[@gazzarrr666]

Great minds think alike! I think she must have been an influence...

[@torpedoboy4]

yep, with some Deeee-Grooovy moves

[@jessxo2225]

Love that Vibe

[@shannonflores2317]

Thank you Randy!!!🥰❤The most beautiful princess Nina! Weeeeee! So glad to see someone that knew that! Nina is still the master though...have a happy day!😊

Flasbacks of Dee-Lite !

[@peterschmitz6446]

Funktastic !! This is the 70ties Funk with a Shot of Rapzilla from Fantaazma mixed up to todayˋs Sound. Explosive and danceable.

[@cfc1001001cfc]

Victor Wooton has always been a badass bassist. But being a bass player for Bootsy Collins? Victor Wooten is hereby the greatest bassist in the funkosphere!

[@InfoWithheld]

Jeez. That girl is freakadelic to the core.

[@mikeal-lateef_5138]

Her style kind of reminds me of left eye on this joint

[@larrysouthern5098]

70 and just in 2nd gear....punching.300 mph quarter mile!!!! All HBCU Bands will be playing this jam come football season... especially during HALFTIME!!!! GO FOR IT BOOTSY!!!

[@omegainvestments2345]

Who the heck is Fantaazma and why am I in love. I fell in love with Lady Miss Kier back in the day & Dewdrops in the Garden changed my life and made me a become a dj. No one in the past 30 years has come close to putting out that kind of energy this girl comes close very cool to see her working with my man Bootsy who's older than my mom with alzheimer's but still rocking a bass like a funk master who has no idea what arthritis is. Also Bootsy mad props on that track with Kali Uchis & Tyler a few years ago been rocking that for years on some late night chill after last call vibe.

[@roadcalm3303]

They really, really should start playing this on the radio.

[@jakeclakers9296]

Yes that would be awesome! 💃🏼🔥

[@DerEchteBold]

They'd definitely play this on my local radio if I'd request it ...but there's probably a million Funky songs I'd choose first.

[@flapjackspeeder]

@@DerEchteBold name a few?

[@DerEchteBold]

@@flapjackspeeder Well, you kinda got me there cause I don't really know the names of the songs I love on the radio but I guess it's often the very classics, like Kool & the Gang or such. I also really love Disco-Funk and other late 70s early 80s stuff, also Soul-Funk ...for actual names I'd really have to do some research. Lets just say I don't really like this particular song here, it just doesn't get me, happens sometimes.

Found Bootsy late. Sad I Missed the Funk. Touches the Soul. And Glad I Found Him. Rather Be With You. Panty Dropper. Bootsy is the Ultimate. No Words.

[@raidermaxx2324]

FUN FACT: that Fantaasma chick is a german artist that has been putting out german pop songs for years

[@tonyzed6831]

Fantaazma has an amazing Nina Hagen vibe in her.

Myself from ten minutes later... I wrote this before I found out she's also singing in german !!!!!

[@dogtown1718]

This is a jam.

[@ddbedguy]

Bootsy was there at the beginning of funk and he still sounds fresh and new whenever he releases a new track

[@squidwardnixon]

I was relearning to skate at 26, and went to a new skatepark in my area. It had a bowl with an over-vert clamshell. I tried to loop around it, stopped short and slammed hard, pretty much belly flopped onto flat concrete from 4-5 feet up. A kid said "you gotta walk that off bobba". Never knew that was a Bootsy thing till now. stay funky bobba

[@Floridaboi-Woody]

Bootsy is just too funky to ever stop.

[@willierice150]

This my girl right here she right on time hey Boosie Collins I like this jam right here keep up the good work baby boo to you too George Clinton shout out Parliament funkadelic keep up the good work

Fantaazma is the bomb and Victor Wooten's bass solo was gutter funky. This song made me make "The Face"!

Omg !! I’m FUNKIFIED again, again , again ….. I need a BiG Bad Ass BOOSTER Shot to keep me goin!!

[@GTA2SWcity]

Hell yeah. What else would you expect of a guy whose been around awhile? He played the funk scene for decades, and in the fictional alternate HD universe of Grand Theft Auto was the DJ of 103.2 Space. This is from a guy who typically wasn't a listener, and uh, I don't make any claims to be a "true" fan but even I recognize it takes drive and inspiration to carry a tune and make a beat. Like miss chicken washer on the 90's MTV commercial said: even if it isn't rock music that they're playing, all the best music is being played by _rockstars_ and mr Collins is a veteran in that regard. 😎👍

[@davewray9909]

HOW THE FUCK HAS THIS NOT HAD A BILLION HITS YET?!!!!?

To bass players, Victor needs no introduction; but to be introduced by Bootsy, that's an honour indeed.

That’s the wildest part. Bootsy defined funky bass playing for decades, and when some younger gun so obviously and objectively shows him up he… features him on a solo album? That’s so cool it’s hard to believe.

[@EminencePhront]

@@gefiltefist2088 When you're as awesome as Bootsy, you don't have anything to prove. I honestly hope a lot of metal musicians who are getting up there in years start acting as conduits for new talent to carry on the old school ways. Maybe that alliance can finally break the screamo monopoly on metal radio.
