Funky Kong was a character Rare added to the Donkey Kong franchise in Donkey Kong Country. He has since appeared in Donkey Kong Country 2, Donkey Kong Country 3, Donkey Kong 64, and most recently in DK King of Swing.

Funky Kong usually allows Donkey Kong to go back to worlds he's previously completed in the game. However, come Donkey Kong Country 3 he took on a different role as a watercraft merchant, allowing Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong to reach new areas of the game world. In Donkey Kong 64 he became an arsenal expert, and sold the Kongs various guns that shot different types of fruit.

Funky was also a regular on the Donkey Kong Country TV cartoon, where he was voiced by Damon D'Oliveira. An obvious difference one might notice is that the cartoon version of Funky had tan fur as opposed to the brown fur his video game counterpart had. However, like his game counterpart, Funky is keen on surfing (although we never see him doing it), and like in the first game, he runs his own airline service. He often talks about karma and is also the best dancer on the island.

Funky recently appeared in DK King of Swing as a playable character in Jungle-Jam Mode along with Diddy, Dixie, and Donkey Kong.
