All About the Funk (stylized as Allabouthefunk) is a funk album released by the Brand New Heavies. After their most identifiable lead singer N'Dea Davenport left the band to pursue a solo career in the mid-90s, the band rotated in several African-American singer/songwriters Siedah Garrett, Carleen Anderson, and Sy Smith as lead vocalists on previous projects. This independent follow-up release features British singer Nicole Russo on vocals for the entire project. The band covers Jimmy Cliff's "Many Rivers to Cross," as well as covering their own "What Do You Take Me For" which previously featured N'Dea Davenport on their 2003 album We Won't Stop.

Though Allabouthefunk was initially only released to UK and International territories, it is now available in the United States as a digital download.

gollark: They generally run at about 10% utilization at most doing things like overly extensive self-monitoring, whatever Gitea does, and encoding outbound OIR™ audio streams.

gollark: As such, you can reduce your costs by using the osmarks.net servers, which can idle constantly while serving multiple websites at once.

gollark: Anyway, for, let us be honestly honest, something which is probably not a high-traffic website, you don't need a full server which will just idle constantly.

gollark: Technically, it already exists.

gollark: Yes, we emulate Raspberry Pis at about 0.03% of normal speed by using a Raspberry Pi to simulate a Raspberry Pi CPU, with the memory and disk on Google Drive.
