I about wore out a cassette copy of One Nation Under A Groove recently in my old BMW recently. It was my commute soundtrack for about a month and a half.
I think Jamiraquai is doing something like funk, although it’s almost too sophisticated to be funk:

But they have live drums, a very funky bass player (you can tell he’s funky because YouTube is full of videos of people copping his bass lines), a horn section, and a funky guitar player. And it’s obvious they’ve listened to a lot of funk. So the elements are there.
Great dance song....this is from 99?
