George Clinton was born in 1941 in Kannapolis, North Carolina and grew up in Plainfield, [[New Jersey]]. After some time in a barber salon, he became a staff songwriter for Motown, while fronting a small-time doo-wop group named The Parliaments, which had a hit in 1967 with "(I Wanna) Testify". But this band disintegrated, and Clinton instead formed Funkadelic, a band which played a combination of psychedelic rock and funk, influenced by other famous musicians such as [[Jimi Hendrix]], James Brown and Sly & the Family Stone.
