Sourced context
"Funkdafied" is a song by American rapper Da Brat, released in May 1994, by So So Def Recordings, as the lead single from her debut album of the same name (1994). The song was both produced and written by Jermaine Dupri and contained a sample of the Isley Brothers 1983 hit "Between the Sheets", for which the brothers and Chris Jasper were given songwriting credits. "Funkdafied" also uses the rap from the intro of "Gimme the Funk," the 1982 release by Charades, however the writer of “Gimme the Funk”, Warp 9 producer Lotti Golden doesn’t appear to have been credited. Both songs feature the rap parody in their intros, which satirizes the standard oath taken in sworn testimony, “Do you swear to give me the funk, the whole funk, and nothing but the funk...I do”
