Aleon Craft & George Clinton "Mothership: The Decatur Connection"

Presented by SMKA & Funkprobosci.com

Mothership: The Decatur Connection is a collaborative project between funk legend, George Clinton, and hip-hop artist, Aleon Craft.  This is the first time George Clinton (of Parliament Funkadelic) has linked up with a hip-hop artist for a complete, new project.  George Clinton recorded to 3 new records for the project, however, Mothership: The Decatur Connection consists of elements from... Aleon Craft’s Mothership Decatur (2011 Mixtape), the Parliament-Funkedelic catalog and original recordings from both Aleon Craft and George Clinton.    

Paul Forrest & Justin Padron, SMKA-affiliates, are the chief producers behind the project and were tasked with taking all of the pieces from Craft and Clinton and creating something unique that reflected their style and vision.  Mothership: The Decatur Connection is an exciting mash-up project combining two very different artists, both with an exceptional creative process.   The project is presented by SMKA & Funkprobosci.com.

Craft’s 2011 project, Mothership Decatur, paid homage to Parliament’s 1975 release, Mothership Connection, fusing southern hip-hop and funk into his own brand of music called, Solar-Hop.  P-Funk, one of the most sampled groups in hip-hop history, has amazingly never seen most of the money generated from sampling due to copyright (sample) trolls and questionable legal representatives. After discussing the project in more detail both artists felt that this would be a perfect opportunity to create a unique project, and possibly help P-Funk and hundreds of other funk artists in their constant fight with copyright infringement.
