Real funk never disappears—it simply waits for the right voice to remind the world why it matters. Andre Cymone makes that statement loud and clear with The Revolution’s On Yo’ In ‘O’ Net, the opening signal for his forthcoming album The Resurrection Of Funk. Powered by vibrant grooves, commanding bass work, and socially conscious songwriting, the single channels celebration and conviction in equal measure. It’s enjoyable how Cymone treats funk as more than a musical style. He presents it as a living expression of community, resilience, and cultural identity that movement and meaningful messages can thrive together. Rather than revisiting the past, Cymone pushes the genre forward while honoring the foundation he helped build. Cymone said of the track:
I wrote this song as a musical reflection of a new world order coming to life. It’s a wake up call to a paralyzed society to not succumb to the heard mentality the corporate media would have you do. Revolution’s are born when the masses wake up to injustice. This track is made to make you stop and think stand and represent.
Arriving this August, “The Resurrection Of Funk” finds Cymone performing every instrument himself, reinforcing the value of musicianship and human creativity in an era increasingly shaped by technology. Long recognized as one of the architects behind the Minneapolis Sound alongside Prince, Cymone uses this project to reclaim a legacy that continues influencing generations of artists across genres. The album’s fictional guide, The Funk Forecaster, ties the record together while expanding its imaginative world without losing sight of its cultural roots. More than a return, this is a reaffirmation of funk’s enduring power to inspire joy, resistance, and connection.
