About Funky Poets
Βιογραφία καλλιτέχνη
Presenting one of the more positive images of young Black men in the ghetto, mid-'90s American rap group the Funky Poets are a four-piece whose intelligent lyrical trickery was defiantly old-school, yet whose outlook was unquestionably informed by the Afrocentric noises of the Jungle Brothers and De La Soul. The group was made up of brothers Paul and Ray Frazier and their cousins Christian Jordon and Gene Johnson. Together they broke through on the hit single "Born in the Ghetto," on which they recounted the urban tale of a young sister learning that she is pregnant at the age of 14. The narrative was turned around, making the situation a positive one, with the central character emerging renewed, defiant, and proud.
