Ivan Neville of Dumpstaphunk tells HeadCount why they named their latest album #DirtyWord. We’re gonna call this record Dirty Word—because we look at funk as a dirty word. Not only in the literal sense, “it’s funk, it’s dirty”; just when you name your band Dumpstaphunk you tend to either assume you play funk music or they say, “What’s the name of your band?” “Oh, the name of our band is Dumpstaphunk.” “Oh, what kind of music do you play?” Wow, it’s kind of funny. And when you go to register a song, there is no genre called funk. There’s other—there’s rock, there’s R&B, there’s pop, but there’s no genre that’s funk. So, we want to call this record Dirty Word.
