Bootsy Collins enlists Branford Marsalis, Victor Wooten and his latest 'funkateer' Fantaazma for his latest song 'Hip Hop Lollipop.'
“I was just strutting down the street when the Mothership descended on me,” Fantaazma says. “I was touched by Bootzilla’s synergy and became a part of the trilogy. He gave me that ‘hip hop lollipop’ and it flipped my script, now I’m flying on the lollipop ship! I haven’t been the same since. You should try one, it’s so funkin’ fun!”
“It’s kinda like the music evolution of Miles Davis, but with bubblegum hip-hop rap on top, for the youngin’ to really get a lick at her talent,” Collins says. “This remake includes the phenom bassist Victor Wooten. Hope you dig it!” Collins wanted to release the track, which shouts out Sly Stone and Victor Wooten, during February’s Black History Month. “Black History Month gives us a chance to express our oneness as a unified team, to embrace our blackness, and stay in ‘good trouble’ like our hero, Dr. King,” he says via email. “We stand on the backs of others, in everything we do. You are the Power of the One, to thine self be true.
