P放克(P-Funk,P Funk 或 P. Funk)为一种由乔治.克林顿(George Clinton)以及其率领的Parliament-Funkadelic乐团所主导的音乐类型,全盛期约于1970年代中期,后来并广为许多的hip hop音乐家采样,许多的现场乐队亦继续表演此类型之音乐,使得P-Funk得以继续于视听大众间继续流传。
P-Funk的词源得由许多不同的方面解释。有数种不同的说法,分别指为“Parliament-Funkadelic”、“纯放克”(pure funk)、或是“Plainfield Funk”,指美国新泽西州之 Plainfield 市,也就是该乐团的发迹地。 Motor Booty Affair专辑之CD版本内页说明指出"P"这个字母解释做“纯粹”(pure)。由于P-Funk极为广受欢迎,因此现在成为了单独的音乐形式。此类音乐的乐迷通常称作"The P"。
P-Funk 不宜与Rick James以及 Stone City 乐团擅长的punk funk混淆,尽管这是由Rick James受P-Funk启发而来的音乐形式。

英文简介
P-Funk is a distinctive sub-style of Funk created in the mid-1970s by George Clinton and his fellow musicians of Parliament and Funkadelic fame, among others. Characteristics are a "fat", monotonic drum sound; spaced-out synthesizers; thumping, "squelchy" basslines; tight, syncopated horn sections; and sometimes heavy guitars. This sound has been brought by former Clinton collaborators to many spin-off bands, for example Bootsy's Rubber Band and Jerome Brailey's Mutiny.
P-Funk has been a fruitful source of sampling for Hip Hop acts since the late 1980s.
