## What 2 lists say

### No. 10 in [Funk](https://waxonia.com/genre/funk/)

The last great statement of funk as a mass movement rather than a set of techniques. It is a manifesto you can dance to, and it knows disco is already at the door.

### Picked by [The Waxonia Desk — What the DJs Kept](https://waxonia.com/selection/the-desk-what-the-djs-kept/)

The border case, and here as one. Funkadelic on a disco list is arguable, and a list nobody could argue with is a list nobody chose.
