   About God Made ME Funky
Nu Funk

“If you can’t dance to God Made ME Funky, you can’t dance.” - ChartAttack.com

Toronto based God Made ME Funky (GMMF) is a funky live ensemble, comprised of a diverse array of musicians ranging from a classically trained Jazz artist to street schooled Hip-Hop and R&B vocalists. With a common bond of moving crowds with their infectious energy, the band consists of Vocalists - Kaybe (Snow, Just Cool) and Melissa O’Neil ( Canadian Idol, Dirty Dancing: The Classic Story on Stage ), Rapper - PHATT al (Len, Raggadeath), Keys - Danny Argyle, Bass - Cam Dougall (Graph Nobel, King Latifah), Guitar - Rich Grossman ( Eva Ávila), Trumpet - Benji Perosin (Directions), Sax - Arthur Kerekes (Monkey), and Drums - Alan Witz (Funky Hi-Life, Millhouse).

Formed in 1996, GMMF started out as an instrumental funk fusion experiment. As the bands popularity grew, vocalists were added to increase the range of songs the band could cover. Influences including Stevie Wonder, James Brown, Marvin Gaye, Sly and the Family Stone, Michael Jackson, Jamiroquai, the Roots, Afrika Bambatta, and D'Angelo were remixed with a 'new school' sound, defining the bands unique style.

GMMF won the Toronto Independent Music Award for Best R&B Band, the first of many accolades and achievements, for their self-titled debut album released in 2005. In addition, they were named one of the top performers at NXNE by ChartAttack.com that same year. Since 2005, their music has been chosen by the Parmelat Group (of Dairy Products) to be featured in their national "Pure Filter Milk" campaign and has been featured on the TMN hit show 'G-Spot'. Continuing their success, the band has shared the stage with such notable artists as Guru (GangStarr, Jazzmatazz), Afrika Bambatta, Julie McKnight, Bedouin Soundclash, and Divine Brown.

Their second album, ‘We Can All Be Free' featured guest spots from Michie Mee, Maestro, and Thrust. Most notably, the album earned the group their first Juno nomination for R&B/ Soul Recording of the Year.The first single “Won More Time” feat. Thrust, hit 1 on CBC's R-30 radio charts, and 60 on the national CHR (Contemporary Hit Radio) charts. The video received heavy rotation on MuchVibe, and medium rotation on MuchMusic and Razer. The third single “Luv T'Day” was featured in the film ‘American Pie Presents: Beta House’.

The band has further developed the “NuFunk” movement with the release of their third album ‘Enter The Beat‘ (2008). The first single, the album titled “Enter The Beat” , is currently being featured in the new Coors Light media campaign, while the video for the single "Bringin' It Back" was directed by MMVA nominated director Marc André Debruyne.

The band’s highly anticipated fourth album, “Welcome To Nufunktonia”, released on July 2009, features a slew of special musical guests and takes the band to a whole new level, incorporating electronic and dance influences to several of the tracks.

The new album features guest vocals by Jully Black and Miku Graham (Instant Star) as well as producer credits from a range of musical heavy hitters, including Keith Harris (Black Eyed Peas), Slakah the Beatchild (Art of Fresh, “Sunglasses”- Divine Brown), What! Productions (Dragonette) and Beat Mergers Productions (King Latifah, Estelle, Akon, Kardinal Offishall, Jully Black).
