" The Funky Chicken" Negest



He is very energetic and outrageous fun with his soul dance tunes, wearing hot pink shorts in 1972 was stylish; and such the greatest thing that he got an entire stadium full of people to do the "Funky Chicken" in the middle of 1972.

This video kind of reminds me of the stories about the parties Kool Herc used to hold - except in an extremely larger venue. I like how this video gives us history about the funky chicken. It shows us how funk, soul, and hip hop all intertwined.
