Funky Revolutions Favoriting : Playlist from December 16, 2023

Hosted by:

Funky Revolutions

Favoriting

Funky Revolutions is based on the One. Since 1994, host Khalid and guests have invited you to groove & celebrate the history of Africana music - the African diaspora and its musical reflections around the world.

We explore the past, present and future of the funk. From introducing trip-hop to Montréal in the early 90’s, to supporting hip-hop’s underground, to presenting ethno-musicographies of jazz, soul, reggae and afro-funk, Funky Revolutions embraces all grooves & the revolutionary spirit of the Funk, from the Black Arts Movement of the 70s to Indigenous defiances & liberations in the (post) colonial world.


Every Saturday 2 - 4pm (EST)

Favoriting December 16, 2023: Dancing DImensions

To get back the fundamental One of the Funk and dance for those who cannot. Inspired by Ural Thomas, Portland's Pillar of Soul, who at 82 years old released Ural Thomas & The Pain - Dancing Dimensions in 2023.
