- Prince inducts Parliament-Funkadelic into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and members of the band, including George Clinton and Bootsy Collins, at the 1997 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony.
Official Parliament-Funkadelic bio: rockhall.com/in...
Who else got sad when Prince and George Clinton hugged and George called Prince his "Main Man". R.I.P. Prince.
Best concert I ever went to - 6 hours of Clinton & P-Funk. Then I was leaving and George said "hang out". Everyone but bout 50 of George's people and friends got to stay and Prince came and jammed till 6 in the morning with Mos Def and Alicia Keys! Crazy night. Pisses my sister off every time I tell that story because she didn't want to come that night so missed it.
❤ ❤ ❤
Not me.

All in the big Mothership in the sky
For those 40 and older. We were spoiled with all of the talent we had growing up.
IKR Damn....We were beyond spoiled with all of this talent & didn't even know it at the time. Not to mention what has replaced it SMMFH.
We were blessed. It’s not exclusive. Every generation has new artists.
@@grolaw the music industry is done
I concur.....
so true my friend so true
Great speech!Showed that he respected the artists that inspired him!Happy Birthday, Prince!
Just like George Clinton to allow everyone else to go first.....Love it.....P-Funk👏👏👏👏❤
oh i like mayte laughing and prince looking at her...so sweet
b g I mean she was 22 and he was 37 when they married..so yea she was childish
b g Ik... I really miss Prince... I wanna read her book... Have you read it????
b g True, I wish she hadn't of written the book, she waited til Prince died sadly to put stuff in there that she knew he wouldnt have wanted in there. That's honestly fcked up.... Btw do you like the movie Purple Rain because I love it💜💜💜😍😍
b g lol I really want to see the deleted scenes
b g Another thing I don't like about Mayte Garcia is that she acts like she was married to Prince for over 10 or 20 years... They were only married 4 years and were separated 2 of those years.... Like Girl stop being thirsty for fame
Since i'm a man of generation X and LOVE rhythm, PRINCE is the perfect person to induct one of the most important force regarding FUNK! Can't begin to say how much i love to see icons like FUZZY HASKINS, CALVIN SIMON, GRADY THOMAS, GARRY SHIDER, JEROME BRAILEY, BERNIE WORREL, BOOTSY COLLINS and the man himself GEORGE CLINTON to get their respect. TIKI FULWOOD, GLENN GOINS and EDDIE HAZEL are in our hearts.
I got to go to Paisley Park a few times, a friend of mine knew Prince and I live 10 minutes away. Well one time I was just standing there talking to a buddy of mine, and we looked by the door and a guy that looked exactly like George Clinton came gliding in and was just standing there by himself at the doors, he might have floated in on a spaceship, hard to tell at that moment. A Prince sighting there wasn't a big deal, it's his joint, but was this really Mr. Funkadelic himself? It had to be him, nobody looks like him or dresses up like him. After a few minutes standing there alone, someone must have told his purpleness that his idol had showed up to catch one of his late night shows and Prince finally ran over to see him. You could tell Prince had a lot of respect for the master of funk at that moment.
Prince is da man!!! So are Parliament/Funkadelic..........
Would have liked for them to have included Fred Westley and "Catfish" Collins in their "Shout-outs"
And I TOTALLY LOOOOVE PRINCE! :-)
Look at the little “shhh” he gave mayte at 1:06 😭💜
Prime influence will always be the leading factor in the long time worth of any musical artist. There are Jazz artists that are virtually unknown to the general public, but the music that they created stands the test of time because of the inlfuence the music has had over generations. If sales were a true indicator of an artists worth, then please explain Abba to me.
one nation under a groove, getting down just for.....the funk of it.
one nation and we're on the move..nothing can stop us now!!!!....classic funk.
That was my jam back in the day.
joe ferguson i
are you ready to funk, the whole funk, and nothing but the funk....!
joe ferguson classic
"You pee on it and sent it back to me and ill pee on it and then we'll see what we got"
The imagery from that is mind blowing
Thank you Prince.
We love you
@@jonylawson73 same Thang
Miss you P!!
Parliament Funkadelic was the very first concert I went to as a teenager at the Tower Theater in Upper Darby, PA. My uncle got me 2nd row seats. What a show! I never thought Michael Jackson and Prince would check out before George Clinton.
+4Is2See Me either. Guess those drugs preserved him, like formaldehyde. #lovelivetheClintonthatMATTERS
@Olu Bukonia
That was funny, but true! :)
4Is2See George brought the Funk
+Theresa Hayes-Kemp 76 now
Good observation, from what I'm told, wisdom is key.
As soon as Ray opened his mouth and that unmistakably DEEP voice came out, the funk levels went up a million fold.
Agreed! He's amaaaazing!
Only ones I know with that bass voice is him Barry white and Melvin franklin
Everybody's got a little light under the sun.

I hope so
Say that again baby!
Well not everybody… some got a little dark especially if they tan well… ☀️
prince and george clinton are music gods. thank you both.
theres only one God
U GOT THAT RIGHT 👍
Prince would not appreciate being called a god, just sayin.
you are right. the only true gods out there are talented people like Prince and George who enrich humanity and bring joy and color into our lives.
I totally agree 👍
One of the most authentic, straight-from-the-heart, inductions I've ever seen for the RRHF. Also, what genuine thank-yous from the many members of Parliament Funkadelic. They definitely deserve to be inducted. Where would rock and roll be without funk and soul?
For Prince to go on about Parliament is amazing. Such a humble man. And worthy recipients of the award. Love George Clinton and the P-Funk All Stars
Bootsy is such an American classic.
I'm about see him this weekend he lives near me! going to be doing a tribute to #Prince!
Damn that sounds amazing. Is he touring at all?
+joeyservo no I think it's just a tribute to #Prince.
Agreed.
He never fails to bring a giggle to my lips every time I have ever heard him open his mouth to speak.
Just that unique & cute way he speaks is completely his own.
Love him to pieces.
+Stage Right he has 2 voices lol his real one and his stage one.
I wish my generation, the generation that listens to Lil Wayne, Drake, Beyonce, Nicki Minaj etc. knew the true essence of music, where it stemmed from and how funk and soul has played a HUGE role in music today. Much respect and love to Parliament - Funkadelics. You guys deserve more recognition for the influence you've had and still do in the world of music! :-)
Indeed
When I was a teenager, I used to hang with Eddie Hazel , on occasion,when he visited his grandmother on Bainbridge street between Reid Ave and Patchen Ave in Brooklyn. He invited me over to hear him play his new red Gibson guitar at her house. It was a beauty. He told me that he was playing for a band called the Parliaments. When my family moved to Queens, I never saw Eddie again. Years later, retired and living in Oklahoma I remember what Eddie had told me about his association. I researched and regrettably realized he had prospered in the music business and I didn't realize it. Then I found out my boyhood friend, Eddie had passed away. he is listed as one of the Greatest ever guitarists. i see his widow Ms. Brenda received the award for him. I was also proud to hear prince mention Eddie by name. Eddie had a dream. Eddie pursued and achieved his. Eddie, my friend, RIP. God Bless.
Brenda crashed this. She was not invited, Eddie's Mom and sister were there to accept the award. Brenda hitched with a roadie. While she was in prison, Eddie divorced her.
Game Dames and Guitar Thangs. Enough said!!
Eddie Hazel will always be one the greatest who will ever live, between the influence and talent, untouchable, that’s awesome that you knew him man, thank you for sharing great story
This is such a beautiful and loving remembrance you have written about your younger days and, of how Eddie and, his playing/passion touched you in a very strong manner. Your respectful and honest words speak volumes of a great friendship that might've drifted apart over time but never lost it's special place in your heart! It would've been wonderful had you and Eddie connected later in life...before he passed...I'm sure that he would have been super happy to recall those simpler times with you...
I'm sure that he is playing with a phenomenal all star band in the beyond...rippin some seriously crazy awesome solos...and, smilin down on you often my friend!
Cheers, and...thanks for sharing this beautiful story
Reading this comment of yours is one of the rare moments when I do see the internet to be a good thing too!✌️
It’s crazy seeing Junie Morrison so humble cuz his talent is off the charts! He did his thang with the Ohio Players and then with Parliament-Funkadelic and still remained discreet and wanted to give shine to the rest. RIP
Why did Junie leave Ohio Player's?
And more so I bet Ohio Player's was a bit salty
I would dress exactly like Bootsy if I didn't have to get the bus back home after.
+Ritchie Rosson In that case, unless something drastically changes within you, you'll never ever dress like. ...except maybe for halloween or burningman.
Take a bath hippy.

Lmmfaoooo bootsy
Dazz, Lakeside, Slave, Ohio Players, Parliament, Funkadellic, Zapp all from Ohio, is there something in the water there that makes great funk bands?
+ Devo + NIИ
chucku00 Funk in their own way !
Also, Keith and Johnny Wilder of Heat Wave. They may not have been a classified as a funk band, esp., with their European influence--RIP Rod Temperton--but they were definitely funky.
Isley Bros,Midnight Star,Skyy,Levert,Ojays on & on & on.Ohio is where many Southern Blacks left the South for!
George Clinton was from Canada and Parliament was founded in Newark, NJ
What is little known to the public is that George Clinton was operating the equivalent of a Motown or a Stax records for more than a decade using the same players. Then the record companies he played around with screwed him because they realized what might transpire with internal/external sales competition and cut it off. In reality these players controlled and dominated the waves of our brains for decades thanks to GC. That is why Parliament is Funkadelic and electrosonifies the P-Funk nation into the milleniumsphere and I for one am glad it continues to be digested into all forms of music we consume.
dude I am so GLAD I don't get deep thoughts as u....and am able to get all funked up without a those words u just spewed out. Parliament is Funk because the fans embrace a groove, sounds that make u wanna move....take ur PHD ass to bed.
That was to Funky and Deep Stupindously Elaborated To The Max 2 Thumbs up Funkadelic For Life One Nation Under a Groove
@@silesmiles5662 I love this comment lol
George Clinton is a "gifted & anointed" messenger.
I believe the Holy Spirit is the source of Funk.
Most believe the opposite but can't make sense of this phenomenon called PFunk and the effects that represent it.
Prince knew that's why he said he wanted to testify about it.
People are slow to catch the hidden meanings and obvious clues just like with "JJ Christ's" parables.
Christ always operated pfunky if you think about it, and wasn't he accused of being a devil to in spite of always exposing Satan and warning us against Satan?
Doesn't Sir Noze make sense of Satan historically and "ironically" as the enemy of funk?🤔
jackson 5 from motown
Prince is a perfect example of what happens when a person is inspired by good people
All the best to Mr. Bernie Worrell, a true musical genius and innovator who is in a fight for his life. Be strong Bernie. RIP Prince.
+reggie d Fight, Bernie!
He has a crowd funding page to help pay medical expenses
+justme Sadly Mr. Worrell left us yesterday. True genius that is unsurpassed. RIP Bernie.
OMG!! I have been playing George and Parliament along with Prince the past few weeks. Never thought I would see Prince and George in the same space. Absolutely amazing! George and parliament - the best concert ever. Thanks for the upload. RIP Prince, And the others with George who have passed on.
Its so beautiful the way that Mayte looked at him with such love in her eyes! We all loved him so and will love his music forever #RIPPrince
they were quite smitten with each other.
Every man needs to feel/know he is admired, wanted, needed by his partner. They were a terrific couple, I’m glad she was there for him even for a short time.
No
Prince: vegetarian, exercised, one meal a day - died of a (supposed) drug overdose of pain medication.
Clinton: consumed the entire mothership of crack and LSD for 30 years and still walks the earth.
Bizarre.
So bitter sweet to see Prince and Mayte in love, before it all turned to shit.
I don't know where the time has gone.
Craig Nevermind Crack = bad, LSD = not so bad. In fact, it can be quite medicinal and therapeutic if used properly.
Craig Nevermind Lmao about the George Clinton part you wrote. Thank you, I needed that laugh.
Fentanyl is far more likely to kill you than LSD is. Tom Petty was fentanyl too.
The whole Mother Ship of Crack you wrong LMAO but true
Life has no guarantees may Prince R.I.P.
some real humility from that stage. Very Refreshing.
…✅
Parliament and Chocolate City meant a lot to this lil white boy from New Zealand. When I grew up and wanted to play the drums, I jammed along to your records. You crossed the divide here in NZ between Maori and white people. You made a difference. You matter...love and peace.
ManiK dig it brotha
ManiK Kia ora ... True that
Shot cuz
Fuck yeah!
Awwwe!💕🙏🌏👌✌😘
Me and him got the same taste in women but he gets em
lol
LOL......LOL...
Richard Kelch best comment!
It's a dude.
Richard K lmao
George took 10 mins of his time talking with me as a fan. Thank you George! Thank Bootsy and the p funk family here and in the hereafter. You all are APPRECIATED.
Parliament Funkadelic was and is, along with Earth, Wind, and Fire of the same era, THE Supergroups of African American music. They literally changed music the same way James Brown did before them. Of course Bootsy and crew were members of the James Brown Band, and George's sound, coupled with what Bootsy and the gang brought, was a combination that made beautiful funky music! One of a kind!
One of the most dominant rock bands of the era and also unapologetically heavy for the time. Eddie Hazel was competing with basically every Prog Guitarist in Europe and Black Sababth and succeeded to the point where Rush mentions The Mothership at one point. Also managed to be one of the first sci-fi opera space type bands alongside Magma and Pink Floyd.
Cameo too!
So sad to know that half these people are gone now. #RIPPrince #RIPBernieWorrell #RIPEddieHazel #RIPGarryShider #RIPJunieMorrison #RIPCordellBoogieMosoon #RIPTikiFulwood

I LOVE MY BLACK PEOPLE AND OUR MUSIC!!!!
Prince was sexy, sensual , charming , funny, talented , creative, artistic , otherworldly , bad-ass, out spoken , uninhibited, ethereal , spiritual, an enigma, unique and a SOUL BROTHER. He will always be in my heart💜. No one will every compare
to you PRINCE💜
no one💜💜💜💜💜luv u always Prince
NycBeauty not about race. He was black but also had Mexican in him. But it didn't matter he was special nonetheless
Ironic that he wrote the song for O' Conner "no one compares to you" but I am thinking you knew that already. he was a great one.
T. Truth ...prince’s mother was Hispanic and his father was black. I’ve seen a photo of her and they even showed a Hispanic woman in purple rain. Lol
@@littleaudreyheburny3203 all you needed to do was google it before making not only your first comment, but for lord's sake the 2nd. The man was black.
Man. I’m so glad Prince said that about Erotic City. It had Funkadelic all over it! It’s that Mothership Connection! 🛸
Bootsy Collins is an American Treasure. Grateful to see GC, Prince and him on stage tog! #GloryBtheFunksonme
BOOTSY! One of the Best most Badass Bass players EVER!!
I love the acknowledgement of G-O-D the true BOSS.
A m e n!!!
Facts
Listen to the album 'Maggot Brain' from beginning to end, and tell me this is not rock n roll. Sure, they do their own thing with it, but that's evolution. Eddie Hazel was one of the best guitarists! Bernie Worrell on the keys? The drums, bass, attitude? Really! Just listen to the whole thing without preconceptions. It is an amazing Rock n Roll record with a funky coat on.
I was really hoping that Bootsy was gonna introduce himself with "Ahhhh.... The name's Bootsy BABY!!"
+Spanishdog17 LOL Fuck yeah! That wouldve been awesome!
Btw R.I.P. Prince!
Spanishdog17 yeah that shit would've made me hype I love these guys, they made me enjoy music even more
Hell yes! Me too!
I saw parliament in 2003. they were top notch. they never lost it. clinton still makes great music. amazing realy
Cool!
Go again! They are still throwing it down!
yeah they have always put on great live shows (although I'm not sure about recent years). I went to one years ago and they played for like 3 hours lol Definitely get your moneys worth of music.
Me too GC voice was amazong
parliment and the funkedelics came out my freshman year at texas a&i university in kingsville, texas. It was a ground breaking sound that no one had ever heard before. It took our college campus by storm. Their strong beats and rhythms had every party on campus jumping. It was a great time. Thanks Parliment
1968? I unfortunately was late to the game... " One Nation under a groove was my introduction to the Funkadelics" 1978 my first college year....and " Mothership Connection, and Tear the roof off the sucker" was in 1975 was when I got into Parliament. My freshmen year in highschool.
I'm supposed to believe you went to college but misspelled Parliament twice?
Lol just funken with ya✌🏼
Mayte was so pretty.
Whatever. Money can make anybody look good.
+Tisha GTFOH
Tisha jealousy gets you nowhere... lmao
Tisha What’s with the hate? It’s obvious she looked beautiful money or not. You act like somebody called you ugly...maybe they did.
I saw her this past April 2018 and she is still naturally gorgeous! Has not aged a bit.
Prince has always had awesome taste in women! Always!!!
She was just alright for me
I have the same taste, so what? XDD
Young and naive and none of his relationship lasted more than two years. ...
I think she looks a little bit like Prince. I imagine he saw somewhat of a reflection of himself in her, a kindred spirit 💜 so sad how things went for them. She was probably too young for the type of relationship he was ready for.
Eddie Hazel is probably why Funkedelic continued being a Rock Band and got them experimenting with The European Acid/Prog Sound more though,as well as adding in some traditional african sounds,so I'd say it was as much him as Clinton.
R.I.P. PRINCE
Glenn Goins - the baddest soul singer ever!
Glen is my all time favorite vocalist for PFunk. Played a mean guitar too.
DUDE WILL TAKE YOU TO CHURCH SO QUICKLY.... NOBODY BUT NOBODY COULD GRIND OUT NOTES LIKE THIS MAN... I MEAN NOBODY... VERY FEW PEOPLE HAD THE TALENT MY LORD GOD GAVE THIS HUMAN BEING... HIS SINGING ON BOP GUN IS SIMPLY INSANE.... NOT TO MENTION "THIS IS THE WAY WE FUNK WITH YOU".... JE DIED SO YOUNG AND HAD LEFT THE GROUP SO EARLY....
That’s hard to argue.
The way he looked at Mayte and laughed at her laughing is the sweetest, most adorable thing I’ve ever seen 💜 he really was just so taken with her.
@D.M.W totally agree actually. I don’t like the way he treated her at all. Seems like he got bored and dumped her like trash, and after picking her up when she was just a kid...but they were sweet at this moment in time at least
Her parents picked him and he feel in the trap when she was 18 god dont bless a mess and that was what they had a mess she was too young and he was a grown man
@@georgialilley4316 from what I have read and heard in interviews, after their baby died, he, like many at a time like that, was searching for answers and comfort. Someone, maybe Larry Graham, introduced him to JW religion. He grew up inside a religious family, so it likely wasn’t that hard to get him involved with JW. He was very involved with them and really pushed it on Mayte and she just couldn’t get into it like him. So that was a big influence in her decision to leave him. As well as the loss of the baby and miscarriage was hard on their relationship.
@@dorothydrake8838she didnt leave him he left her, she had one child not 2 a molar pregnancy is what she had. She stated the doctor found no fetus, it's a tumor that mimics a pregnancy. And I didn't know she was so religious I never hear her mention god
@@lynnerussell4263 She did have the baby-- his name was Amir. He was born with Pfeiffer syndrome type 2. It's a terrible condition that causes the skull bones to fuse too early, and he didnt live very long. 💔
This is even more special now that Prince is gone. Hardly ever saw him that excited and animated. God bless them all. Thanks for all the funk.
Bootsy is one of a kind. Great band and great speeches, very appreciative. R.I.P. Eddie Hazel and Bernie Worrell. George is a class act.
RIP Glenn Goins
RIP Garry Shider.
ahhhhh they look so cute & happy together. he and his then wife. i was sad to learn they lost a newborn infant son. what a devestating loss for them both. if the child had lived, who knows... perhaps they would have remained married. he just looks so happy here. God rest his soul. i feel like he is in a beautiful happy place -- "A world of never ending happiness"
oh my. just read a bunch o' stuff regarding their marriage and the pregnacy and death of the baby. not very flattering toward prince. geez. sad. i wonder if his religion played a role in not seeking proper medical care, leading to his passing. and then i wonder if a messed up childhood and all that led him to cling so tightly to strict religious rules. geez. sucks regardless. seems like superstars struggle with so much emotional turmoil on the inside while trying to project an image of composure for their fans. anyway, RIP you creative genius.
+t Bone - Mayte issued a statement after his death saying he is now with their son - beautiful sentiment. RIPPurpleOne
+t Bone Probably more because he was a control freak. Even his nannies said the same. He was also likely in denial as well.
Pebbles Isinglish There were a couple of articles where the nannies spoke of Prince not wanting to admit Mayte to the hospital and even trying to stop the doctor from entering the room. I also think he was worried about it being leaked to the media.
Pebbles Isinglish There's always something to gain when people speak about their personal experiences with celebrities-don't embarrass yourself by repeating that woefully ignorant statement ever again.
Those nannies should've been sued for breach of trust by speaking on another persons household/relationship. No one is talking about their personal lives for everyone to judge.
And just because they interpreted him or his actions a certain way does not mean they knew all of the details and doesn't mean that what they understood was actual fact. Did they talk to doctors about her condition? Would they know pertinent info? NO.
Coming from Mayte herself is a totally different story. Get your self straight.
I don't understand why the hell Junebug would think he didn't belong on that stage. He contributed so much to the sound.
All of these funk masters influences including James Brown were where Prince got his original funk sound. All of Prince's music had that undergirding of funk...so it was right that Prince was the one to induct Parliment. Parliment-Funkadelics, took James Brown's sound to the next level, then Prince took that to the next level. So when you hear artist like Bruno Mars for this generation, it's already been done with Bootsy in his generation.
I remember a little white girl who played her first PARLIAMENT FUNKADELIC album on my turn table blasting it at full throttle with my mama hollering "What alien planet did that come from?" I replied THE MOTHERSHIP mama!!!!!🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍#STILLTEARINGTHEROOFOFFTHESUCKER 🥰🥰🥰🥰
This whole thing is totally funked up.
prince looks great here
No.... Great looks Prince
Prince looks Fair there but he speaks well
@@vincentp6978 lol that a good one
Prince didn’t spent a lot of time outdoors.
he always looks good
WOW !!! Mayte Garcia Is Beautiful!!!!
and is eating him with his eyes
She's alright
She is
I'm pretty sure this was towards the end of their marriage and he was cheating on her with his 2nd wife. Knowing where they were in 1998 is painful knowing what she's gonna go thru. I can't imagine the pain she felt being in his world for so long from ages 16 to 26, and then being turned out. After losing 2 (3?) Babies with him. So sad. RIP prince
@@Shadow-pn3sp This was 1997
I pledge to the funk and nothin but the funk
Did anyone notice that at 2:52 Ray Davis lifts up his trophy and the disk on the statue goes flying towards the audience? :)
LOL! good eyes.
Prince is what Eddie Hazel could have been. One of few keeping funk alive. Much respect.
God bless you.
AIN'T THAT THE TRUTH!!
What a bunch of excellent people! Love all of them
Thank you for the FUNK!! ❤👍🎶

It is a long time I haven't seen a group brings a family setting to a top award. Awesome! Respect you all.
how blessed I am to have witnessed this moment.Rest in Power Prince *ping
That why he wrote "The most beautiful girl "for her.
Mayte Garcia.
They had so much chemistry together.
you can see it in the old videos.
Not written about her.
He wrote that for Vanity
@@gaylahuckaby1 It was written about and 4 Carmen Electra, She has proof of it! Also the song : I hate u. Mayte has only publicly said that he wrote the song : Let's have a baby for her....All the other song's he wrote during her time with him. He wrote basically about what was going on between them. .....it's that simple.
I was 9 years old when I heard Flash Light and cooragraphed my dances with the neighbor kids off of Flash Light. They don't make music like this anymore. Thank you for bringing me back down memory lane with the P Funk. This is such a treat, omg.
I noticed he wouldn't let go of Mayte lol
+Luisana Herrera Who can blame him, lol..
lol he eventually did. o, well.
She was his comfort zone. He said that she made brought him out of his shyness, his nervousness eased. Prince truly loved her. RIP Prince 💜💜💜💜
@@rachelle6058 prince was not shy. He did that for the camera. It was part of his showmenship. When away from the camera. He was joking and talking ect. This is just his act to make you think he was from somewhere else.
@@itsjustnopinionok that's with his friends. When he first started singing, he couldn't even look out at the crowd much he was so nervous and shy. That stage didn't last long though, but then things like the Rolling Stones concert that threw things at him and boo'd him offstage set him back again temporarily.
2023 & I’m still riding the funk mothership. I can dance under water & not get wet.
I'm from Cleveland Ohio..when flashlight first came out.. everybody in Cleveland Ohio loss their minds..that was the jam of all jams...we use to dance till we sweat..non stop...and when the Mother Ship landed..the whole city was throwed
😊 Off..I will always be a funkateer.. 💯
Parliament-Funkadelic are LEGENDS. They are unique and have inspired many artists from pop or rock etc. People like George Clinton are artistic genius!
Had me tearing up watching all these brothas getting the award, it was very special to see Eddie Hazels Wife receive the award for him. George Clinton is like Moses he pulls all his people up.
I'm a certified 'Funkateer' and they blew the cobwebs out my mind. There music has been sampled so much by HipHop and remains relevent.
its kinda a shame Eddie, Tiki Fulwood and Glenn all passed away before they could bask in the glory of this, RIP to those brothers.
Great band and I loved Bootsy's stage presence from James Brown to now. I was a GC fan from the first time I ever saw him.
Her wife then can't take her eyes off him, even grabbing on to his hand. The man is irresistible to the ladies, because nothing is a bigger turn-on than talent..
+denniszenanywhere I gotta hand to all the women he dated and the two he married they were very lucky to lay beside such a sexxy man and waske up to one i bet not one hair was outta place and his breath probably was never bad lol too fine gone too damn soon
not just talent, but passion and purpose.
Actually he grabbed her hand.
He really seemed happy with her, She certainly added something to his life. Hate that tragedy tore them apart
+Lo-Lo Bryant SAME 💜💔
Lot of great R and B Funk bands from the 1970s and 1980s but none shined brighter that P/Funk. had the pleasure of seeing these guys and it was a blast from start to finish.
They were well ahead of their time.
They weren't as intresting in The 80s. They ditched Hazel and The Rock Sound when Rock went out of fashion and that might have been fine but they also kinda stopped experimenting in the same way.
George had so many players over the years, it was great that the original Parliaments members and Funkadelic band members were included in receiving their rewards
RIP Prince, my daughters and I have been your fans through all these years and I'm a p-funk follower, Bootsy is the baddest funskter/ bass player, amen. George Clinton well what can I say, so much funk in those days, Brides of Funkenstein gonna funk you up.
they loved each other. you can see and feel it!
Straight up funkadelic.Love the man giving this award,will miss you Prince!
I love how they thanked God ! I grew up with this music and it will always be in my soul . Parliament was one of my first albums , The mothership connection .

Very glad to see Fuzzy Haskins & Junie Morrison. REST IN POWER Glen Goines and Tiki Fullwood & Eddie Hazel. We miss U....
There is SO much music history in this clip!!!

Saw George and P-Funk at Lollapalooza 1994 in Charlotte, NC with Beastie Boys, Green Day, Smashing Pumpkins...George and P-Funk were HANDS DOWN the best part of the show (next to Green Day...Smashing Pumpkins was horrible and the Beasties were too loud). They blew it OUT! Went to get a drink before they came on stage and when I got back to my seat, which was close to the stage, there was this sweet TINY little old black woman in my seat with a big 'ol red pacifier around her neck. I just sorta squeezed in cos no one was sitting anyways. I asked her if she was enjoying herself and she said, "That's my son!". Sure enough, she was George's momma. He pointed her out a few songs later. One of my best memories from that year :). Did the bump with George Clinton's momma LOL.
that is KOOL AS HELL!!!
I sure your glad you didn't boot George's mom from your seat, lol.
elizabeth draper I seen same tour in New Orleans hell o show
pepe1999ish That's awesome...Not only have I been on the other end of Elizabeth Draper's story, but if you were at the show in NO or anywhere else in the last few years, you saw my Son onstage as well. Thanks for the Love and support.
I was at that show!
Mayte I can't stand her. prince true love was and always be VANITY
Complete legends....
“Together, forever”!
I've watched this many times. This has got to be one of the greatest recording and performing groups ever. I'm glad that everyone got to say their piece on this and that some of the guys got acknowledged before they passed on.
How can one not love them all, even if only for their amazing Funkadelic style!
I'm so glad to spend multiple time seeing all of them for $12-$22 per concert (Parliament, Bride of Funkinstien, Pfunk, Pfunk all starts, Boosty and the rubber band band, etc)
To truly know them and appreciate you had to be them in the audience..
Love this Group, love their music. They have influence people all over the World. Their music is still going strong to this day. They have recorded classic records.
Love me some Boosty.
BOOTSY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Was just as bad as George, well almost. LOL I loved their music growing up as a kid, those were the days.
i love how much they mention eddie hazel. they even do it again when george is talking. hazel was a legend among legends. rip
