Damon "Dam-Funk" Riddick is the epitome of funk. Ever since debuting on Stones Throw in 2008, the California producer has become one of the genre's most passionate proselytisers.
In 2013, he released a celebrated album in partnership with hip-hop's Snoop Dogg, '7 Days of Funk'. Fresh for '15, Dam returns with a solo project nearly six years in the making: 'Invite the Light'. 'Invite the Light' isn’t just Dam’s first solo full-length since ’09, he thinks of it as his first fully-realized effort - a “concise, beginning-to-end vision - that’s resulted in a loosely autobiographical concept album inspired by the trials and tribulations of his personal and professional life of the last six years.
As always, Dam flexes his multi-instrumentalist talents by handling all the production but still makes time for guests including rapper Q-Tip, the father-son duo of Leon Sylvers III & IV, Jody Watley, Q-Tip, Ariel Pink, Nite Jewel and funk giant Junie Morrison of the Ohio Players, who opens and closes the album with dire warnings of what could happen in a world without funk. Rest assured, Dam is here to make sure that never comes to pass. As he puts it, "funk is the underdog, the black sheep of black music," and if that's true, Dam-Funk is its shepherd.
