Eye Wish U Heaven on @pamfunkstress #birthday words can’t express what she means to this community, you had to see the dance floor when she was on the #turntables #TurntableQueen “You brought a personally framed picture of me to my restaurant and gave it to me on my birthday. You guys are in a different category compared to fans. You guys are family. You’ve driven 2 hours to see me, you know how special that is to me? That’s friendship right there, I adore you and your daughter (Ashleigh).”- Pam Warren speaking to @ghettognostic Oct 2017 Photo 1: January 2013 Foster City Photo 2: October 2017 Oakland #Legendary #ThatsMyDJ #InternationalDJ #MissYou #PurplePam #Funkstress #Scorpio #ScorpioSeason #Headshot #Hands #JustCoupIt #BayArea #scratchlive #records #music #RestInPower https://www.instagram.com/p/BqS9_FPB-Ab/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zvj0ad8z5kep

Pam the Funkstress (Pam Warren), 1966 – 2017

/ rest in beats, rest in power /

/ «I loved a woman. Her name was Pam. I’ve yelled her name thousands of times in my life. Pam The Funkstress. Pam The muthafuckin Funkstress. Now when I yell it, she won’t hear me. These are a few thoughts about her. Just things I want to share. Not definitive and I don’t care how correct it is, it’s just what I feel right now.» (continue...) – Boots Riley /

So sad to hear about the passing of DJ Pam The Funktress @pamfunkstress. Although I have never met her, she had an influence on the way I listen to cuts. I first heard her scratching on a record called “Dig it” by her group The Coup back in 95. I was blown away by the cuts on that song clean, funky, & in the pocket. I didn’t even know it was a female on the cut. I just thought it was dope. Long story short. She made me realize that gender doesn’t matter. If you’re dope then you’re dope. That’s it. Thank you Pam for helping to raise the bar weather they know it or not. Rest In Peace Queen. Cut it up in the clouds. #pamthefunkstress Repost from @pamfunkstress Just a friendly reminder I can still cut up It's Time. #oldskool #og #turntablequeen @egocrushensessions @normajeantheboss
