Funk Suno prompt pack

Funk is rhythm first. Everything in the prompt should describe how tight and syncopated the parts are.

Classic funk, slap bass line with heavy syncopation, scratchy wah-wah rhythm guitar on the sixteenths, punchy horn section, tight live drums with ghost notes on the snare, charismatic male vocal with shouts, 100-115 BPM, warm 70s studio sound
