The Yunkuh funks like royalty -- a Prince, to be exact -- on this lean, mean party groove.

	Reaching back to 1982 for the classic sound of �1999,� the man known as Yunkuhpuss obviously knows his Prince. Just check the sex talk, lockstep groove and heavenly falsetto of �O-Shit,� a Musicblitz Exclusive download that marks the Yunkuh as a real funky comer. But don�t just take our word for it -- ask Dr. Funkenstein himself. That�d be George Clinton, who first spotted the colorfully-clad Mr. Y at a Los Angeles talent show he was judging, and gave him the top vote over 300 other acts. Clinton was so impressed, in fact, that he signed on to produce Yunkuh�s debut album, soliciting help from some kindred spirits: Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist extraordinaire Flea, and members of freaky funksters Fishbone (who may have been a hairstyle influence as well). All that remains is for you to dig deep into the figurative doo-doo of �O-Shit,� which picks up where His Royal Badness left off almost two decades ago -- while adding a modern wrinkle or three. But the basic formula -- keyboard squiggles and lyrical nods, winks and giggles laid up against a stiff-backed rhythmic pulse -- sounds every bit as good today as it did in those glory days of yesteryear. And just because Y2K�s over is no reason to stop partying like it�s �1999.�
