About This Song
About "Word Up" by 80’s Groove Masters
'Word Up' struts with a funk-rock swagger, all clipped guitars and a booming, authoritative bassline. The tension is between the song's playful, almost cartoonish bravado and its genuinely infectious groove. It's a command to listen, delivered with a wink and a slap, a quintessential slice of late-80s crossover cool.
