"Funkdafied" is the lead single released in May 1994 from American rapper Da Brat's debut album of the same name (1994).

The song was both produced and written by Jermaine Dupri and contained a sample of the Isley Brothers 1983 hit "Between the Sheets", for which the brothers and Chris Jasper were given songwriting credits. "Funkdafied" also uses the rap from the intro of "Gimme the Funk," the 1982 release by Charades, however the writer of “Gimme the Funk”, Warp 9 producer Lotti Golden doesn’t appear to have been credited. Both songs feature the rap parody in their intros, which satirizes the standard oath taken in sworn testimony, “Do you swear to give me the funk, the whole funk, and nothing but the funk...I do” The single was released in the summer of 1994 and quickly became a hit, reaching number six on the Billboard Hot 100 and number two on the R&B charts (held from the top spot by Janet Jackson's "Any Time, Any Place") and number one on Hot Rap Singles. To date, "Funkdafied" remains Da Brat's most successful single and is her only single to have been certified platinum for shipments exceeding one million copies, earning the certification on August 16, 1994. By the end of the year, it had sold 800,000 copies. It reached No. 37 on the Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles of 1994 as one of the year's most successful singles.
