Prepare to get funked up like you haven’t been in a long time.

Legendary funk musician George Clinton is preparing to release a new album, his first since 2008’s “George Clinton and His Gangsters of Love.”

The announcement was made Tuesday by record label Brainfeeder.

“Yes, the word is out! @George_Clinton will release a new album on Brainfeeder,” the label tweeted.

“Details coming soon…,” the label vowed.

The 75-year-old musician, best known as the man behind the bands Parliament and Funkadelic, has a history with Brainfeeder. Last year, he was featured on “The Lavishments of Light Looking” by WOKE, a collaboration between label founder Flying Lotus, bassist Thundercat and others.

Clinton will also perform at the Hollywood Bowl on September 17, sharing the bill with Flying Lotus, Thundercat, Shabazz Palaces and the Gaslamp Killer.
