About Funkatopia

Posted by funkatop On January - 14 - 2011

Funkatopia.com is the brain child of Chris Horton aka Mr. Christopher.  When doing research on funk artists, he found a very lacking presence of funk music on the web.  Although hints of the genre floated about throughout music including rap, Top 40, Pop and even country, there were no unadulterated FUNK sites.  So Mr. Christopher went about to fix that problem.

This is how Funkatopia came into being.  It will serve as a hub for all lovers of funk music.  So for you fans of Parliament, Prince, Slave, Lakeside, Ohio Players and the many other funk artists out there, welcome to Funkatopia.

And since this is a community, we would love to get help from you! Send reviews of funk concerts, funk albums, places to go to hear great funk music, and anything funky.  If it’s funky, we want to know about it. Email us at funk@funkatopia.com and let us know what you can do to help!
