He should have been inducted about 20 years ago. Keep it 100. That song has been THE Que song since it came out. My dad was in college when that song came out and told me so. But at least they did it before he died. George Clinton is one of the greatest artists and producers of all time.

Without Atomic Dog, you'd never have Pumps and a Bump (a beat I absolutely loved as a childhood fan of M.C. Hammer). I'll always love how these timeless tracks previous artists give us will lay the foundation for anything that comes after, and be used one way or another to make something great, and make sure the marathon continues.

Awesome interview! 😀😀 So happy to see he was finally inducted! 🥰🥰 He said he got to learn them steps now! 😄😄😄 ❤❤❤❤👍🏾👍🏾

The brilliance & genius of this man is something that I know - personally !!! We need to bubble wrap this ICON and preserve him for eternity because we certainly need his consciousness ✨✨

The first time I met this man was 1976 at the Dayton Arena during the Mothership connection tour. How we got back stage was amazing especially when we were just 12 yo. We called it the falling stick method. Outside the emergency stage exit ya put sticks up against the part where the doors open and wait for someone to exit, the sticks fall down blocking the door from closing and you are in. Works in movie theaters too. So many people in costumes and walking around in clouds of smoke. Not one person said nothing to us until Boom the tall man with the wig said....who is you. We all lied and told three different stories and he laughed hard. He just walked away like we werent there. Thanks George by far the best concert I have seen

Thank you for this! Did not know these facts about George! Great interview! ✊🏾🤜🏾🤛🏾

I wish he would have told the history of " Flashlight", " Aqua boogie" "Knee deep ", " One nation under a groove", and so many others . He did talk a little about " Flashlight ". But good interview.

I haven't seen George this clean-cut in 40 years.

Love ya', George!! So glad you are still coherent and with us after all these years. Please keep Funkin' as long as you can and stay healthy. Peace to "The G'Father of Funk!!!!"

So glad Mr Clinton is getting his flowers 💐. 🙏🏾

So awesome to see that Mr. Clinton is now an Omega Man!! He is so deserving of this!! Congratulations and welcome to the D9!!🔺❤️🐘

I’m old enough to remember when Flashlight dropped and I had a chance to see the Atomic Dog Tour in the early 80’s. Granted I’m not in the Frat but I can tell you the brothers in the Air Force would rise right up when it played in the club.

Tallahassee Florida 1993 Club Moon George pulled me and a few of my LBs on stage to hop when they played Atomic Dog

Congratulations to GC on his induction to Omega Psi Phi...and thank you for creating TWO anthems for Alpha And Omega...Flashlight APHIA...06!!!!

The Funky barbershop quartet out of Plainfield, Brother George was laying the "konks" on back in the 60's during the day, and groovin with The Parliaments at night. All hail the Godfather of Funk, who gives credit to the Godfather of Soul, James Brown. If you notice, the music changed when Bootsy Collins and his brother Catfish joined Parliament Funkadelic. The other shift in their music came when Fred Wesley, Maceo Parker, and Kush Griffith joined the band; that's right before the Mothership landed.

Nice interview Jahliel !

Saw the videos of him in Charlotte last week. Epic ROOO!

it's so sad, George Clinton went to court to get back his Rights to the Music he wrote and was denied. All the music he wrote from between 1976 and 1983, which would include his contributions to the Funkadelic classics One Nation Under a Groove (1978) and Uncle Jam Wants You (1979) as well as the solo effort Computer Games (1982), which spawned "Atomic Dog." is owned by a company called Bridgeport Music the same company was one of the defendants in the recent “Blurred Lines” case with Pharrell and Robin Thicke. His music is second on the list of most-sampled artists in music history, with more than 400 times to date, it is estimated that it's worth 100 million in Royalties and George get zero *note he was heavily into Crack Cocaine back then, that's probably why he signed away all his rights .....very sad
