Funk legend and former Parliament-Funkadelic member Bootsy Collins will be releasing a new album in April. The project is entitled "Tha Funk Capitol of the World" and is the bass player's first album since his 2006 christmas album "Christmas Is 4 Ever". In a recent interview on billboard.com, Bootsy stated “Since I’m still here, I really wanted to connect those dots…so young people can see that what they think is so new isn’t so new.” referring to the death of some his former colleagues like James Brown.
So we can expect a fresh new album bringing back that good old funk music, that crazy psychedelic sound but with some special surprise moments. At least the guest list lets us suspect this as people like Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, Musiq Soulchild, George Clinton, Bobby Womack, Samuel L. Jackson and many more are featured on this record. Even the godfather of guitar, Jimi Hendrix, will have a little appearence. Check the tracklist below. If that's not enough to get you hyped, I don't know what else could get you funked up!
