Funk came to be associated with cheesy aspects of 70s pop culture and when those became uncool it hurt the genre's commercial potential.

Co-opted by hip hop. There's place for only one nigger genre at a time since they inevitably keep cannibalising whatever came before. Funk killed jazz

Already forgotten. He instantly run the satanic black queer well and nobody will ever think of him aside for that weird time period where a novelty hit became a major point of political discourse in that crazy age that was the second half of the 2010s

This is factually untrue and just because you refuse to acknowledge this fact doesn't mean it didn't happen

Why did blacks abandon Funk ? Throw a stone in a room full of Isley Brothers listeners under 30 years old, and chances are you'll be hitting a non black person.

It died because Prince made it popular to use gay sounding synths and guitar solos and fruity singing when that was not popular before in funk
