Description
Funk: The Music, the People, and the Rhythm of the OneFunk: It's the only musical genre ever to have transformed the nation into a throbbing army of bell bottomed, hoop earringed, rainbow Afro'd warriors on the dance floor. Its rhythms and lyrics turned bleak urban realties inside out with distinctive, danceable, downright irresistable music. Funk hasn't received the critical attention that rock, jazz, and the blues have until now. Colorful, intelligent, and in you face, Rickey Vincent's Funk celebrates
Funk: It's the only musical genre ever to have transformed the nation into a throbbing army of bell-bottomed, hoop-earringed, rainbow-Afro'd warriors on the dance floor. Its rhythms and lyrics turned bleak urban realties inside out with distinctive, danceable, downright irresistable music.
Funk hasn't received the critical attention that rock, jazz, and the blues have-until now. Colorful, intelligent, and in-you-face, Rickey Vincent's Funk celebrates the songs, the musicians, the philosophy, and the meaning of funk. The book spans from the early work of James Brown (the Godfather of Funk) through today, covering funky soul (Stevie Wonder, the Temptations), so-called black rock (Jimi Hendrix, Sly and the Family Stone, the Isely Brothers), jazz-funk (Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock), monster funk (Parliament, Funkadelic, Bootsy's Rubber Band), naked funk (Rick James, Gap Band), disco-funk (Chic, K.C. and the Sunshine Band), funky pop (Kook & the Gang, Chaka Khan), P-Funk Hip Hop (Digital Underground, De La Soul), funk-sampling rap (Ice Cube, Dr. Dre), funk rock (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Primus), and more. Funk tells a vital, vibrant history-the history of a uniquely American music born out of tradition and community, filled with energy, attitude, anger, hope, and an irrepressible spirit.Binding Type: Paperback

Grille-ing Me Softly: A 30-Minute Makeover Adventure
Color: Single Slat Gloss Black, Size: 2019-2022 G20, Color: Single Slat Gloss Black, Size: 2019-2022 G20
Installing this grille was a breeze! It took me about 30 minutes, even with a minor hiccup of having to uninstall it to add the front camera panel I initially forgot. The grille feels incredibly durable, made from plastic that matches the quality of the OEM version. Plus, it gives my car a fresh, youthful look. Highly recommend for a quick and stylish upgrade!

Good quality
The material is very sturdy and came rolled up. Left it on the kitchen counter for a week with weight on it to get it close to flat. When installing there are about 3 predrilled holes in the mat. You have to drill into the floor board to install provided clips which is fine, but I had extra clips so I drilled additional holes in both sides to get the malt flush. I like the mats.
