There's not much to say about this track, it's just fun. Originally the intro was longer and included more of the "King Kunta" sample than just the last minute, but I cut it because I thought it wasn't interesting enough. It's important to remember that you're not obligated to include the entirety of your main sample in a mashup; sometimes just having a segment is better for pacing.

I heard you was conflicted... well listen to THIS
Cheryl's notes:
i dont actually like any of the samples in this one but uhhhh it sounds like a JSR song which is cool also "by the time you hear the next pop" is a funny long-running joke
lyrics
By the time you hear the next pop
The funk shall be within you
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin'
King Kunta, everybody wanna cut the legs off him
King Kunta, black man taking no losses, oh yeah
Bitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin' (Welp. There goes our happy ending.)
King Kunta, everybody wanna cut the legs off him (Aww, it's a fusion of jazz and funk!)
(It's called "junk"!)
Funk (Get up off of that thing) [Make my funk the P. Funk]
Funk, funk (And shake 'til you feel better) [I want my funk uncut]
Funk, funk, funk (Get up off of that thing) [Make my funk the P. Funk]
Funk, funk, funk, funk, funk (And shake, say it now!) [I wants to get funked up]
(Get up off of that thing) [I want the bomb, I want the P. Funk]
We want the funk (And shake 'til you feel better) [I want my funk uncut]
[Make my funk the P. Funk]
We want the funk [I wants to get funked up]
Now if I give you the funk, you gon' take it? (Get up off of that thing) [Make my funk the P. Funk]
We want the funk (And shake 'til you feel better) [I want my funk uncut]
Now if I give you the funk, you gon' take it? (Get up off of that thing) [Make my funk the P. Funk]
We want the funk (And shake, say it now!) [I wants to get funked up]
Now if I give you the funk, you gon' take it? (Get up off of that thing) [I want the bomb, I want the P. Funk]
We want the funk (And shake 'til you feel better) [Don't want my funk stepped on]
Do you want the funk? [Make my funk the P. Funk]
We want the funk [Before I take it home]
Do you want the funk?
We want the funk
Now if I give you the funk, you gon' take it?
We want the funk
I remember you was conflicted, misusing your influence
Sometimes I pull on it so hard I rip the skin!

rly dense, interesting mashup album. goes far beyond "acapella and instrumental" and into some rly accomplished and exciting plunderphonics Allison Fleischer
gorgeous lofi ambient pop album. has a lot of surprises and refuses to really show its hand at first. deeply personal and affected me in ways i cant rly describe Allison Fleischer
