   Del The Funkyhomosapien!: General Info
Member Since1/3/2006
Band Websitewww.hieroglyphics.com
Band MembersDel The Funkyhomosapien, Del Diablo Diabolique (That's Me), Deltron Z 3030, that's all (4 now)
InfluencesI have many, but the main ones are The Funkmob, Parliament-Funkadelic. Bootsy's Rubber Band is a very close second. George Clinton and Bernie Worrell are very influential. As far as hiphop is concerned, I'm influenced by all dope lyricists, and I stay hip to whatever's happening to me, whether it's underground hardcore or pop. It's all music to me, but it helps if it has some kind of funk or swing to it. Jazz is a very heavy influence, as far as composition and playing in general.
Sounds LikeMy sound is Del's own sound, but I got a wide range of influences! Nowadays, though, I definitely try to keep it Black and funky. Anything after that is fine, but those secret ingredients gotta be present, but I'm all-inclusive, meaning it don't matter what color you are or what you may be into. I feel that anyone could get into my work because I actually hang out with all kinds of people and it all goes into what I do in some way. But genre-wise, my stuff sounds like late '70s funk/soul, for the most part, you may hear synths every now and then, but don't confuse it with the sound that the Bay is known for typically, although it's related. I'm also into real dead-on staight-ahead hiphop jammies, too, so you can find that in me too.

   About Del The Funkyhomosapien!


Hailing from Oakland, California, Del and his crew, the Hieroglyphics came out as a markedly non-gansta response to a burgeoning West Coast scene. After being put on at the tender age of 17 by his cousin Ice Cube, Del released two records on Elektra, I Wish My Brother George Was Here (1991) and No Need For Alarm (1993). Despite record sales in the hundreds of thousands, he recorded a third album, Future Development, which was never commercially released. Del parted with Elektra and started work on the Hieroglyphics..¿½ family album, 3rd Eye Vision (Hiero Imperium, 1998). Hiero went on the road and toured incessantly in support of the album for much of 1998. Del also spent a good portion of his time drawing, practicing Japanese, and playing mass amounts of video games. Finally ready to unleash a new record on the world, Del comes with BOTH SIDES OF THE BRAIN. Seventeen tracks of pure Del. He says of his work on this album: ..¿½I..¿½ve had complete control..¿½. At times, Del has felt restrained by the formulas in hip hop and the expectations fans place upon emcees who have had hits. ..¿½I wish that I had the same freedom that someone like Bjork has when she puts out an album...¿½ Apart from collaborations with PrincePaul, El-P (Company Flow), and help from a few of his Hiero co-horts (A-plus, Casual, Domino) Del handled the majority of production on this album. By staying true to himself, Del has earned legions of adoring fans. He may have said it best in his classic, ..¿½Mistadobalina..¿½ when he declared, ..¿½it..¿½s all in the mind and the heart..¿½. Indeed.

To Release isn't to forget, not to think about, or ignore.
It doesn't leave feelings of anger, jealousy, or regret.
It's not about pride and it's not obsessing or dwelling on the past.
It's not about giving in or giving up.
To let go is to cherish the memories, but to overcome and move on.
Letting go is learning and experiencing and growing.
To release is to be thankful for the experiences that made you laugh,
made you cry, and made you grow.
It's about all that you have, all that you had, and all that you will soon gain.
Letting go is releasing and having the courage to accept change, and the strength to keep moving.
It is realizing that the heart can sometimes be the most potent remedy.
To let go is to open a door, and to clear a path and set yourself free---

Del The Funkyhomosapien!, remember that it's easy to let go when holding on
hurts so bad--so free yourself from all these expectations and just be :-)
Hope you find the unity in my new single "Release" feat. JRockA.
So come peep the track! Stay creative and stay connected!!
