damon d_m-funk riddick is the epitome of funk. ever since debuting on stones throw in 2008, d_m-funk has become one of the genres most passionate proselytisers. in 2013, he released a celebrated album in partnership with hip-hops snoop dogg, 7 days of funk. fresh for 15, d_m returns with a solo project nearly six years in the making: invite the light. d_ms partnership with stones throw includes everything from his 2009 lp toeachizown and adolescent funk, a 2010 anthology of early productions, to 2013s 7 days of funk. as always, d_m flexes his multi-instrumentalist talents by handling all the production but still makes time for guests including rapper q-tip, the father-son duo of leon sylvers iii & iv, and funk giant junie morrison of the ohio players, who opens and closes the album with dire warnings of what could happen in a world without funk. rest assured, d_m is here to make sure that never comes to pass. as he puts it, *funk is the underdog, the black sheep of black music*, and if that is true, d_m-funk is its shepherd.
