Funkadelic

Following funk icon George Clinton's guest spot on Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly track "Wesley's Theory," the pair have now reconnected on a remix of a recent Funkadelic track. You can hear a pounding, but bouncy revamp of "Ain't That Funkin' Kinda Hard on You" online now.

The original track popped up on Funkadelic's 2014 long-player, First Ya Gotta Shake the Gate. Under the guidance of Louie Vega, the remix comes with a sped-up backbeat, a swirl of Funkadelic-style synths and that famous, smoothed-out George Clinton flow.

Hopping on the beat, K-Dot gets motor-mouthed with his set of bars. He tears the roof off the sucker by talking about his lack of patience, and a drive that has him seeing past all those metaphorical red lights. Then, an "Atomic Dog" style group bark gets loud in the mix, and a horn solo takes us home.

It's relatively easy to give the "Ain't That Funkin' Kinda Hard on You" remix a spin. You'll find a player of the track down below.
