- Classic old school hip-hop joint from The Masterdon Committee, also the unofficial theme song of Sundance 2011. Ask yourself-- exactly what is a funk box? What makes a funk box conducive to throwing a party? And what the hell is a masterdon, anyway?
- Hudba
parties will NEVER be the same again, this was truly the best era those privileged to experience it can cherish it. simply a natural vibe
Dad aseeeesssswjjskssssaejsuuuiwauii I akiiiheueeweooooiiiippppooiiii
Princesa..Master Don...My life
The early '80s is my favorite era for Hip-Hop.
Top 5 party record of all times. How can you not get up and dance when this comes on. Still the jam to this day.
Right
1970-1989 was the greatest era in music - whether soul, jazz, rap or rock - and will never be duplicated again. I hate what music has become. Thank goodness for youtube for allowing us to venture down memory lane..
WORD UP i always say that. Your SOO right.
I'm going to disagree I say 83 to 98
I agree, music was purer
This song never gets old🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Omg this song brings back memories of W.D.A.S. 105.3 and my cousin Scott
THIS jawn is undeniable 🎶🔥🎶🙌🏽🔥
WBLS Rocked this joint numerous times every day!!!!!
YEP.....I definitely remember that back in 1982!!
Mc Pebely Poo used to live across the street from me in the Bronx NY. Where it all began! I'm just a old school fool.
A Funk Box, or Beat box is a drum machine. This is the early 80's, If a hip hop crew had a drum machine it was a game changer on the block.
this was played ALOT on 107.5 WBLS back in the day....
I got ALL my music from BLS/KISS/WHBI and just about everyone Ma and I have a 90 min mix from Marley (who was way better than Red Alert but not better than Chuck Chill-Out) rocking Masterdon/Mantronix/and a ton of other's......that $hit is insane. I have a home studio and sometimes I do boiler room gigs with a ton of ppl over and I'll mix this joint and they lose their f'n minds.
True and hot97
sure did! the mix tapes too
Just a random comment: A show called Snowfall brought me here & I was feeling this song and In the first season Auntie Louie mentioned that same radio station when she was talking bout opening up her own club & in season 4 this song was playing in her club lol. I now feel the vibes. 🔥
107.9 Philly🎶🎶 just played this!!! A classic throwback 🎉🎉🎉 I can't wait to add this to my work-out playlist, entitled "Let's Get It" 🦾🦾🦾♏♏♏ Still lit in 2022💃💃💃
This is a classic that unless you were living and heard this live at a party and seen the joy and sheer pleasure this song gave to the party people you have no clue how truly special this jam was. B-BOYS & GIRLS take your place in history none of the new generation of hip hop rappers or DJ’s can feel this like we did. We wish you could have felt this but you can’t. You missed a glorious time in HIP-HOP HOUSE & CLUB PARTIES
this is my all time jam!! truely old school
Machere Pritchett
Tears flow because no other generation will experience this hip hop magic.....na na na na
This was the first time that I heard this song in over a year. I once again forgot how dope the beats are! 🔥
This song will make your joint pop out of socket!! 🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾
i remember gettin in trouble dancing to this song in front of my christian school whattt i was tearing it up whatttt
I remember when they did use to practice in the rec center on 144th street and 8th ave. Also “the five shades of Black” they later became the back up singers for Oran Juice Jones.
This is Classic!!! I remember when Masterdon and The Death Committee used to rick in Saint Nicholas Park in Harlem when I was a kid. Was so dope!
MasterP GhettoD album had so many samples its fun listening to the originals when i know the GhettoD album from my teen years
I was 14 years old when it dropped.
wow i made my comment over 7 years ago time flies...yes i was 14 when GhettoD dropped as well, cheers!
Sip master don Harlem legend I'm glad I had the pleasure to meet this brother back in the late 70s when I was younger
Pebbly Poo on of the dopest female emcees hands down!
Next to ShaRock, yeah...lol
I agree!!! And thank you I never knew her name.
Sir Brown from Jersey City says she was a rare talent and a cool person
Master P and Usher, owe Masterdon and the crew royalties!
💯
StopBeingAKeyBoardKiller&MousePadMobster! Gangster G.... is my cousin. P-nut is his nick name
yes ma'am
One of the most underrated hip hop crews. They used to kill it with their routines and Jam Master Jay bit the way Masterdon used to cut "Mardi Gras" on Peter Piper. RIP to both of them.
StopBeingAKeyBoardKiller&MousePadMobster! AN IT'S SPELLED OWN
The best of old school, taking me back to my Truman HS Days.
PHILLY baby. Blockparties The Plateau Hotel Phila Dancing Skates After Midnight etc.
AFTER MIDNIGHT!!!!!!
@@hgaston66 I used to hang out in the DJ Booth at After Midnight with DJ Mike, Terrell and JoJo!!
Cosmic Kev used to kill this joint in Wagners Ballroom Perry P used to change the words of the rapp part and we thought that was his song, but that was the days.
THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST OF IT'S TIME. I ROCK MANY OF CLUBS AND HIGH SHCOOLS WITH THIS ONE.
Absolute classic.Played load the Base sounds like Mantronix later on.A absolute stone cold classic
Oh man, Masterdon Committee, The Cold Crush Brothers, Malcolm MaClarin.....early 80's was nothing to play with especially in Harlem NY.
aldeb456 damm rite ya tu sabé word up it was nothing else like it to hear & rock to these jams at block party's or the Saturday night mastermix na'mean.
My first introduction to rap.😍 Loved it I used to break dance at 3yrs. Old. Born in 1980 The best😎
*Malcolm McLaren* was the english taylor and manager for the Sex Pistols (in fact, their wife Vivian Westwood invented the english Punk look) .
Mr. Magic and The World Famous Supreme Team defined that era
.I miss the 80s 😢💚GOODS TIMES
Wow! The brother who takes over at 3:15 is the father of one of Grand Puba's styles. Puba even kinda sounds like him! I've had this record since it came out and I never noticed that until now. Classic WDAS Saturday night jam.

The Photo Booth Chick making money was easy.

Still grooving to these old school jams. Block parties in Philly...wow. Pumping on EV’s stacked 3 high...smh.
B-Boy music..CLASSIC!!
We saw them "PLENTY" of times in Philly! An Incredible Crew! They should've been as popular as Grandmaster Flash & The T-3!
MASTER P UR WELCOME!!!😅😅
Master Don was the name of the leader of the group.
He was the DJ
Take one part classic Roland TR-808 drum machine, add fresh MC's on the mic along with a hook, and you got a basic 80's Hip Hop party record. Simple and successful.
The era of the MC!!
Talk about going back in time. Poplocking days.
Yes yes yes. Skate city on Myrtle Ave in Bed Study Brooklyn. Love ❤️ this
Flash back to Julia Richman High School NYC. This was my jam.
This joint here! 🔥 I went to school with George and lived in the same building with Master Don! SIHP Master Don🕊🙏
The Masterdon Committee - 1982 - Funk Box Party, Part 1
Thanks for up loading. I remember this Jam from back in the day! Still Jumpin!
LMAO!! Sorry I guess I am just so old. the funk box is referring to the drum machine that was used to make the beat they came out in 1980. before that the only records were spun and mixed and cut to create new beats in hip hop a DJ would extend the break beat for the mc to rhyme. now the masterdon you got me there like being the boss maybe the master boss lol anyway thanks for posting this. I was twelve when this came out and I still know ever word. thanks for preserving the history
Actually this song came out 1982. Maybe 1983!
OMG thank u I've been trying to find out the name of this song for the longest lol
This used to pop!
I remember rocking this down the way in the Richard Allen Projects back in the early 80s

Classic song during my youth!
This sounds like a proto Miami Bass tune
😆 boogie boogie to dis beat
Yeah this song made me wanna go out to the clubs. I would smoke a joint out the window of my room and hear this on WBLS and then it made me wanna go out to the clubs. I had moms record WBLS for me with my Akai cassette deck and i went out to Roxy till about 3am, but then walked 8 blocks over to Fun House, smoked some dust, hit the punch Bag game in the Funhouse, and chilled in the balcony and listened to the best Club DJ ever- Jellybean Benitez. YOOO BEAN!!!! with some wet dust bags in my pocket. LOL..
I was born a year later ✊
Me too #83Baby
Loved this jam since i was a kid
Playing basketball on 183rd and Jerome while somebody was rocking this joint. Old E was flowing and we was sweating to the beat. Damn, time has flown...lol
Made you drop your Henessey.
B Noble wasn’t drinking that back then
a funk Box is a drum machine, and MASTERDON. Played it live at parties ,while the DEATH COMMITTEE killed the microphone .
1982, I was in the 9th grade Newtown HS, I remember hearing this at USA Skating Rink on Roosevelt Ave, Queens, watching this cute black chick doing a continous foot shuffle, just vibing on this crack beat. This beat will knock the stains out ya draws. Who from Queens - USA Skating rink?
Love skating off this song
rockin this at work right now.... bmore stand up
You made it a hot line, I made it a hot song.
- Master P
Definitely Bronx party classic
Thank you thank you been looking for this so many memories
Awesome track for its time with a great beat. Old-school rules
Sir Brown from Jersey City remembers these days.
