Eddie Murphy is in early talks to play the legendary Parliament-Funkadelic leader George Clinton, who is widely considered to be the Godfather of Funk.
Sometime during the Twentieth century, a musician, born somewhere in Alabama as Herman Poole Blount, rounded up his outlook of the World, or more precisely at the Universe, life, and music, and found in himself that he is actually Sun Ra.
George Clinton, songwriter, vocalist, producer, and bandleader has been described as a "genius" and a "pioneer" of funk music, but he is also a man who has had to fight for his rightful place in the annals of popular music.
