Damn! Paradigm.....

Paradigm really is a funky song! Killer! A true hidden treasure! Yeah!

Who agrees? hmm



Did anyone actually buy this at a Clinton concert? Does anyone know the date of recording?

Paradigm! The George Clinton/Prince collaboration, ca. 1999, I would say.

I love it.
The first time I heard it I wasn't sure though, it seemed too minimal and
unfocused. But after a second listen I was hooked... irresistibly funky!

Mr7

This is actually the best and funkiest track
George and Prince have collaborated together
on.

They really seem to gel on 'Paradigm'.

It's a shame it remains unreleased. George
stated last year that it was to be featured on
his forthcoming album 'How Late Do You Have To
Be Before You're Absent'. However, despite
originally having an Oct/Nov '04 release date,
the entire album still remains in the can.

All that Funk gathering dust ...

Peace
Mr7

I'm totally not a funk hater, I have practically everything in the George Clinton canon.

To be honest, I can't even remember what the song sounds like, I just remember first getting it, giving it a quick run through and decided I didn't like it.

I should check it out again, I guess I've unfairly judged it without even remembering it.

I like the beat and Prince's vocals. Georges lyrics kinda suck because they make no sense at all ... and that's saying a lot because his lyrics have always been strange but mostly in a cool funky way. This time George just seemed like he was blathering on without a clue.

I never bothered with the lyrics. All I know is that it is about someone who's "cuuuuu-UUUUU-uuute" and sporting the hell out of beautiful.

Oh, and of course that time, space and darkness do not xist! Thank God!
