Uncle Jam Wants You is the eleventh studio album by American funk band Funkadelic. This album had a very profound influence on the West Coast hip-hop scene, especially the legendary DJ organization known as

Almost as if Clinton and company wanted to atone for parts of One Nation Under a Groove, Uncle Jam Wants You takes not merely a more daring musical approach but a more forthright political stance. The cover art alone is brilliant, front and back showing Clinton in Huey P. Newton's famous Black Panther pose. The main goal is the cover subtitle's stated claim to "rescue dance music 'from the blahs,'" and "Uncle Jam" itself does a pretty funny job at doing that, starting out like a parody of patriotic recruitment ads before hitting its full, funky stride.

Side one is best described by Uncle Jam Wants You‘s subtitle, Rescue Dance Music ‘from the Blahs,' and is mostly given over to an extended version (a little too extended to sustain interest, unfortunately) of (Not Just) Knee Deep, the new Funkadelic single and an example of the group at its funny, funky, infectious best.

All right All you inductees fall out and form some kinda line or something I want all you young ladies to stick your chests out And get your hips to move! 'Cause Uncle Jam wants you to join his army! Come on, y'all. I know it's early, but you gotta get down Go on and rock, Sue, rock! I'm a soldier, in the army, of Uncle Jam Come on and work out in that foxhole Ain't no need to get dirty, but you can get down This is the army with the mission to rescue dance music from the blahs We're not gonna do it by fighting-Get up! Get down! Uncle Jam wants.

Uncle Jam Wants You was the band's 11th studio LP first released in 1979. More militant in tone than its predecessor One Nation Under A Groove, which described a Funk utopia, Uncle Jam's stated mandate was to "rescue dance music from the blahs" had a huge influence on the hip hop scene, notably the legendary Uncle Jamm's Army
