It'S My Thing (You Can'T Tell Me Who To Sock It To)

Description

Orgone, soul-funk giants from the American West Coast, return to their roots with this scorching cover of Marva Whitney's "It's My Thing (You Can’t Tell Me Who To Sock It To)," produced by James Brown. The original track is considered a breakbeat classic and has been sampled by numerous hip-hop legends (NWA, Public Enemy, EPMD). Orgone adds its hard-hitting, gritty signature to re-adapt this track for our time. Vocalist Adryon de León struts and boasts with panache and conviction, taking on and owning Marva's response to The Isley Brothers' "It's Your Thing." Orgone's seasoned rhythm section gives their all to do justice to the legacy of the JB's, James Brown's famous band. Complete with percussion breaks and incredible horn lines, this version of the classic is ready to be embraced by soul aficionados, beat junkies, and deep funk devotees. Instrumental version on the B-side.
