Jerome Eugene Brailey, born Augustâ¯20â¯1950 in the Unitedâ¯States, is a drummer whose work in funk and soul music has spanned several decades. After beginning his career in the late 1960s with groups such as Theâ¯Unifics, Theâ¯Fiveâ¯Stairsteps and Theâ¯Chambersâ¯Brothers, he joined the ParliamentâFunkadelic collective in 1975, contributing to the hit "Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof off the Sucker)" and recording on numerous PâFunk albums. In 1978, following a departure from the collective, Brailey coâfounded the group Mutiny with Glenn Goins, and after Goinsâ untimely death the band released the debut Mutiny On The Mamaship (1979) and Funk Plus The One (1980) on Columbia Records, both produced by Brailey. Braileyâs drumming has been sampled by contemporary artists such as Kendrickâ¯Lamar and Childishâ¯Gambino, and his contributions were recognized by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997 and by the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award presented to ParliamentâFunkadelic members in 2019.
