17/20 damn

I am disappointed

16/20


Hey, I spent most of the '80s listening to MJ, Prince and Duran Duran...

Process and The Doo Rags

19/20, dayum I suck
Anyway, they mispelled Stone Jam. Noobs.

16/20

I have no idea where the name Cameo came from.

16/20.

But ONLY because I accidentally clicked "Golden Throats" (ew) instead of The Parliaments. I knew that one! The ones I legitimately missed: Gordy Records, Nona Hendryx in LaBelle and Larry Blackmon's codpiece. I've never seen Cameo perform, I guess.

17 outta 20. not too shabby.

da horror.

18/20

I'm ashamed.

18/20

The answers were easier than I thought they would be. I guess that's why it's for newbies.

Dial L for low!

sextonseven said:

hehe, yeah: actual newbies would find this shit super-hard, if they haven't been doing their funk homework.

Okay, now that pic is jogging my memory. I picked the hat, because I definitely remember seeing him wear a hat. But when I heard "codpiece" I was thinking like a metal mesh thing. I have no idea why.

RipHer2Shreds said:

and levar burton was in the "word up!" video too, now that i remember...

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

It says average quiz score is 10/20. Newbies are failing the funk.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Yeah, he was. He was peekin' out the codpiece like it was a book on Reading Rainbow.

RipHer2Shreds said:

EW!

RipHer2Shreds said:

that codpiece was slammin'...but...you don't have to take MY word for it.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

I used to love that show. Loved it so much that when I faked sick to stay home, I'd watch that shit...at 14-years-old.

16/20
At least it's better than average. Never claimed to be a funk specialist. I don't spend much time really learning the history behind groups. If I pick up some facts along the way, then I tend to remember those a little better.
