Eddy Puyol’s Debuts Album Run tha Funk Back
With new album, Eddy Puyol invites listeners to Run tha Funk Back for a Good Time Slip on your stunners and lace up your platform boots—Eddy Puyol is teleporting you straight onto the mothership of groove with his latest sonic odyssey, Run tha Funk Back for a Good Time. This isn’t just a throwback—it’s a funkadelic timewarp through sound, soul, and spirit.
From the interstellar strut of “Run It Back” to the feel-good fire of “Tha Funk” featuring funkateer soul brother Doctor Dukes to the confetti-blasted euphoria of “Good Time (Radio Edit),” Puyol delivers a boundary-defying soundtrack steeped in soul and soaked in stank. Imagine Bootsy, Bruno, and Biggie at a dance-off—everybody wins. It’s perfect for a backyard BBQ: smoke in the air, bass on blast, and good vibes all around.
The time-travel hits full speed with “Sigue Otra Vez”—a bilingual bass bomb crafted with DJ Reflex. The original track already gained some significant momentum—amassing 1 million views on YouTube and earning a prime spotlight during Monday Night Football for Hispanic Heritage Month. Now, it returns as a remix, bursting with global energy and Miami flavor—flipping seamlessly from abuela’s kitchen to the dancefloor.
“El Shaddai” ventures into sacred territory, fusing the heartbeat of Miami bass with gospel grit. Equal parts Sunday service and street corner cipher, it reflects Puyol’s deep musical roots—where faith and funk coexist, beat for beat.
Another highlight from Puyol’s earlier Rawsrvnt era, “Game Changer,” returns in a reimagined form featuring longtime collaborator Chuck Hemann and hip-hop veteran Lil Raskull. A proven crowd-pleaser, the track has been licensed by ESPN’s First Take, CBS, and the Miami Dolphins’ coaches show, with the remix engineered to shake stadium speakers from kickoff to the final whistle.
Later, the sports anthem spirit continues with “It’s Over (Game Over),” a swagger-heavy celebration most recently featured as part of CBS’ pregame coverage of the Miami Dolphins—think of it as an evolution of the “Na Na Hey Hey Goodbye” chant but updated for the TikTok Generation.
The ride closes with “Breathe Again,” a soulful reinvention of one of Puyol’s classic hits. Once a Top 5 track on the UK’s Cross Rhythms City Radio and praised as a “pioneering hip-hop worship turntable anthem,” it now returns with rich R&B textures and a polished pop sheen, delivering a radio-ready vibe—perfect for late-night drives or moments of heartfelt worship.
“This project is more than music,” says Puyol. “It’s a revival of soul, rhythm, and celebration. I wanted this project to honor the classics, nod to my roots, and still hit hard enough for today’s speakers. It’s faith. It’s funk. It’s a good time.”
Watch the official “Run It Back” music video on YouTube, directed by award-winning visual wizard Will Thomas, where Tommy “Urban D.” Kyllonen’s Crossover Church in Tampa, FL transforms into a full-on funk sanctuary.
