Funk Legend George Clinton Celebrated by Living Colour at Songwriters Hall Induction
The 2025 Songwriters Hall of Fame launched with funk rock band Living Colour electrifying the crowd with Funkadelic’s “Cosmic Slop” in tribute to honoree George Clinton
It was a night marked by both joy and remembrance, especially following the announcement of Brian Wilson’s death, a day before his fellow Beach Boy, Mike Love, was honored with induction into the 2025 Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Marriott Marquis Hotel hosted a musical celebration like no other, as the 2025 Songwriters Hall of Fame honored visionaries across multiple genres.
With legends like The Doobie Brothers and Tony Macaulay taking center stage, the event also honored George Clinton—widely credited with shaping modern funk.
His fingerprints are found not only in his own timeless tracks but also in the work of Kendrick Lamar, Tupac, and Dr. Dre.
