Funk music is music that gets the audience on their feet and start dancing! It's usually in the form of "New Orleans Street Beat", "Swing", Dixie, and ballad forms. It consists of usually a horn section, rythem section and a choral section. James Brown was the founding father of the genre "funk", it all started because of racism against African Americans, James fought racism with the power of music. Personally some of my favorite funk bands are "Tower of Power"," Earth wind & Fire", James Brown, Galactic, The Funk Brothers ( Motown), Larry Grahm, Weather Report, etc.
