  • Funk Is Its Own Reward": an Analysis of Selected Lyrics In
    ABSTRACT AFRICAN-AMERICAN STUDIES LACY, TRAVIS K. B.A. CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY DOMINGUEZ HILLS, 2000 "FUNK IS ITS OWN REWARD": AN ANALYSIS OF SELECTED LYRICS IN POPULAR FUNK MUSIC OF THE 1970s Advisor: Professor Daniel 0. Black Thesis dated July 2008 This research examined popular funk music as the social and political voice of African Americans during the era of the seventies. The objective of this research was to reveal the messages found in the lyrics as they commented on the climate of the times for African Americans of that era. A content analysis method was used to study the lyrics of popular funk music. This method allowed the researcher to scrutinize the lyrics in the context of their creation. When theories on the black vernacular and its historical roles found in African-American literature and music respectively were used in tandem with content analysis, it brought to light the voice of popular funk music of the seventies. This research will be useful in terms of using popular funk music as a tool to research the history of African Americans from the seventies to the present. The research herein concludes that popular funk music lyrics espoused the sentiments of the African-American community as it utilized a culturally familiar vernacular and prose to express the evolving sociopolitical themes amid the changing conditions of the seventies era.

Their support, both in the studio and onstage, has lent Knight’s music much of its warmth and family feeling - rare qualities in any kind of popular music and even rarer in such strong rock and soul terms. Knight made her public singing debut at Mount Mariah Baptist Church, in Atlanta - she was 4 years old. At 7, she won first prize on Ted Mack’s Original Amateur Hour TV show. She got together with her brother Merald, sister Brenda, and cousins James “ Pip” Woods, William Guest and his sister Elenor to tour with Jackie Wilson and Sam Cooke in the late ’50s. Following a failed 1957 Brunswick Records debut, Elenor and Brenda left to get married and were re­ placed by yet another cousin, Edward Pat­ ten, and Langston George. This was the lineup that scored the group’s first hit sin­ gle, 1961’s “Every Beat of My Heart,” a 9-year-old song by Hall of Famer Johnny Otis.

The first two decades of cinema saw numerous butterfly and serpentine dancers wiggling across the screen (and often these short films were hand- coloured to accentuate their alluring, scintillating, and fantastic qualities). The 1910s saw ARROW hordes of bathing beauties invading the screen (thank you, Mack Sennett); the 1920s had VIDEO their flappersVIDEO and vamps, while the 1930s had chorus girls and gold diggers; Betty Grable and other pin-ups inspired troops during the 1940s; beat girls, bombshells and femme fatales were the ‘it’ girls of the 1950s; and the 1960s began with beach babes and ended with The Stewardesses (1969).
