Dam Funk & B-Real Talk Influence, Classic And Modern Funk

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

LA's resident curator of funk (amongst the countless unnamed) Dam Funk hopped into The Smoke Box with B-Real to wax on inspiration, classic & modern funk. and where the crossroads are in that generational rift. Those familiar with the show can readily identify the über-casual format of the interviews, as they tend to go off on hazy tangents, yet always come back to talking that real over that loud. For anyone curious as to what Dam's got on the back burners or what he considers to be innovative, this is the perfect forum to observe these two titans of funk get lifted and open up. Click through and take a pull of this loud, laid back Q&A.
