Various - Funk Power Black Power

Review by Bastien Vide

Funk Power Black Power is a compilation album that features some of the best funk tracks of the 1970s. The album includes songs from some of the biggest names in the genre, including James Brown, Sly and the Family Stone, and Parliament-Funkadelic.

The album presents a powerful combination of funk and social consciousness, with many of the songs addressing issues of race and inequality. The tracks are full of energy and groove, with infectious bass lines, funky horns, and soulful vocals.

One of the standout tracks on the album is James Brown's "Say It Loud - I'm Black and I'm Proud," a powerful anthem that became a rallying cry for the civil rights movement. Other highlights include Sly and the Family Stone's "Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitey," which confronts issues of racism head-on, and Parliament-Funkadelic's "P.E. Squad/Doo Doo Chasers," a funky, psychedelic jam that showcases the band's signature sound.
