Chocolate City is the third album by the funk band Parliament, released in 1975. It was a "tribute to Washington D.C.", where the group had been particularly popular.

With 63 previously unreleased tracks, this newly remastered version of Prince’s groundbreaking 1987 album is a trove of lost songs and dramatic lore, a jaw-dropping look into one of the most creatively fertile times in his career.

阿爾伯特·「阿爾」·格林尼是一位美國歌手，在1970年代早期有多首靈魂樂歌曲在榜單上取得佳績，包括《Tired of Being Alone》、《I'm Still In Love With You》、《Love and Happiness》和他的代表作《Let's Stay Together》。

It’s Donald Glover’s eye-popping soul riot. And like everything he's touched in 2016, his third Childish Gambino album is a slow-burning triumph. The robust hip-hop of previous records is parked and in its place arrives sweltering soul and mussed-up funk. Opener “Me and Your Mama” is a deep, exultant opus that makes plain Glover’s ambition, the exquisite “Redbone” sees him access a register (and vibe) that Prince would approve, while “California”—a sort of breezy calypso jam with a judicious use of wood whistle—captures the effervescent and completely intoxicating spirit of a very special record.

1983年发行的白金唱片《Future Shock》是贺比的重要里程碑，其中的经典单曲〈火箭〉早在嘻哈与饶舌歌曲流行之前就加入了DJ刮唱片的特殊音效，对唱片界是一大震撼。
Hancock七岁开始学习钢琴,两年以后就开始他的第一次公开演出.高中和大学时期他在一些半专业的乐团中演奏,偶尔有机会为一些造访的爵士乐手伴奏,其中就有Donald Byrd.1961年,Hancock第一次在纽约演出就是和Donald Byrd合作,后来自己建乐团时也和Donald Byrd合作过. 他声名鹊起获得广泛承认的是他加入Miles Davis的五重奏以后.他与Miles共同呆了五年多,在与Davis合作的后期,乐队开始演奏Jazz-rock的风格,Hancock对这种风格十分适应,1968年他自己组了一个六重奏追求自己的演奏观念.他们演奏Hancock原创的作品,乐队成为70年代早期最受欢迎和最具影响力Jazz-Rock乐队. 从1969年开始,Hancock广泛使用电钢琴和其他电子乐器,包括合成器.1973年迫于经济压力Hancock将他的乐队削减为四重奏,其中包括特色乐手Bennie Maupin.新乐队的风格还是Fusion,但这次更多偏向于Jazz-Funk.Hancock四重奏的首张专辑Head Hunters被刚萌芽的Disco乐界广泛接受而且赢得巨大的销量.整个七十年代其余的时间，Hancock的音乐始终关注于这个领域.期间他也制作了数张传统爵士专辑,其中有与Chick Corea一起的以及他自己乐队V.S.O.P。
Hancock在音乐中展现了一种影响深远的创造性,为流行唱片工业设立了一个标准.音乐在形式上是理性的产物,但其内容却是无法缺少热情的, V.S.O.P.乐队的作品一向以其完整性、强烈的情绪和原创性著称.尽管Hancock最初的兴趣在传统爵士上,但他非常有技巧地将其音乐的探索推向其他的领域,创作出一组激动人心的作品。

Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic is the twenty-third studio album by American recording artist Prince, under the unpronounceable "Love Symbol", as shown on the album cover. It was released on November 2, 1999 by NPG Records and Arista Records. Issued shortly after the release of The Vault: Old Friends 4 Sale, the album features more commercial and radio-friendly material. Despite moderate commercial and critical success, the album was conceived as a return to mass markets after Prince spent several years without significant public attention. The included songs are occasionally spaced by a series of shorter tracks, called "Segue" on the track list. The album also includes several guest appearances, including by Gwen Stefani, Eve, and Sheryl Crow; Prince also completed a "sensual" cover of Crow's 1996 single "Everyday Is a Winding Road".
