That's the Joint

"That's The Joint" is a song by rap group Funky 4 + 1 released as their second single.

The single became Funky 4 + 1's signature song and is frequently cited as influential early hip hop record borrowing from disco, funk and jazz.

[2] It was also listed on The Pitchfork 500 and as 47th best hip hop song of all time by Rolling Stone.

[4] In his initial review Christgau gave it 'A' rating and wrote: "The instrumental track, carried by Sugarhill bassist Doug Wimbish, is so compelling that for a while I listened to it alone on its B-side version.

Quick tradeoffs and clamorous breaks vary the steady-flow rhyming of the individual MCs, and when it comes to Sha-Rock, Miss Plus One herself, who needs variation?".
