Makin a profit to pretend that they are stopping it. .......2007-05-23

This cd is pretty good. I actually love the opening song "Dog Star". It's the "Cosmic Slop" of the millenium! The first time I heard Dog Star was back in 93 or 94 where I saw the Mob @ the Warner Theatre in DC and they opened up with it. I love the animated voices on "Pepe the pill popper". Check out the message in Dope Dogs. George aint sayin nuffin but the truth about drugs. It's very hip hopish. One song some next S### sampled the Brides of Funkenstein "Never Buy Texas From A Cowboy". And then near the end, you can actually hear a sample of the doo-wop song "So Fine" by the Fiestas. They slowed it down. Oh oh yeah!

Dogs of the world unite!.......2005-08-28

I personally enjoyed the back third of the album. I expected too much from George on this one. "I Ain't The Lady" had that real old school (Funky worm) feel. "All Sons of Bitches" is still probably a little futuristic by today's standards, but is as funky as it wants to be. "Sick 'em" is pure genius. But there are definitely two to four songs that any eccleptic funkateer will enjoy on this one if you don't mind some of the language.

Clinton's last stand?.......2004-06-26

This is part of the sad disintegration of P-Funk in the nineties, when George Clinton seems to have lost the battle against Sir Nose aka crack cocaine. Records like Cinderella Theory and Smell My Finger were attempts to package P-Funk for a new generation. They weren't 'conceived and produced by George Clinton' like the classic concept records from the 70s. On the side Clinton kept working on recordings for seperate Parliament and Funkadelic albums, but nothing ever saw the light of day. Dope Dogs is a bunch of those recordings thrown together (many featuring Mark & Jeff Bass who later became succesfull with Eminem) and offers a glimpse what could have been if Clinton had kept his focus and if he'd have had a label that gave him sufficient support and artistic freedom. Around '94 when this was released Clinton was working on another concept album for Sony that was going to be called Ooga Booga, about all the conspiracy theories floating around then - aliens, drug wars, cia, the whole x-files stuff. He even recorded a track about the Oklahoma bombing. Of course Sony didn't buy it and after a long period of remixing the pointless TAPOAFOM was released...

Free your mind George!

Phat disk!.......2000-06-04

My roommate asked me why there were so many funk songs out there about dogs. I told him that george was a funky dog. Dope Dog is killer rap from Dr. Funkenstein himself. Chill album for all the dogs in the world, unite!

PFunk is back! A conceptual masterpiece!.......2000-01-30

This is George Clinton at his best! The concept is awesome and the messages spun on this CD are dying to be heard. The sound is more like heavy hip-hop than traditional funk but that doesn't matter. The CD is full of catchy chants and political innuendoes which give a better perspective on what's happening in this country than you'll ever get from the news. If you're a PFunk fan and you don't have this, do yourself a favor and buy it. It will raise your ROOF!
