Kool & the Gang spans generations and keeps young
Kool & the Gang received worldwide commercial support, supported countless charitable causes, and was the only American group to participate in Band Aid’s 1984 Do They Know It’s Christmas project for famine victims in Africa.
With the explosion of hip-hop in the ’90s, Kool & the Gang’s incredible catalog of grooves made them DJ favorites. They were second only to R&B icon James Brown as a source for rap music samples.
Today, the group enjoys worldwide fame and recognition and a fan base that spans generations, due in part to the groups widely sampled catalogs. Kool & the Gang’s drum beats, bass, guitar and signature horn lines lace the tracks of numerous artists, including the Beastie Boys, Jay-Z, Madonna, Janet Jackson, Cypress Hill and P. Diddy. Kool & the Gang is by far the most sampled band in hip-hop.
Her music can also be heard on the soundtracks to Rocky, Saturday Night Fever, Pulp Fiction, Wreck-It Ralph and countless others.
