IPA pronunciation: /fสล ki/ or fung-key
Adjective First documented use was in 1784 and meant "something that was old or smelled musty." It was first used to describe types of cheese but eventually started being used with the meaning of "repulsive," as well. It was around the 1900s that the term became a slang term used by jazz artists and listeners which holds the meaning of "an earthy or strong tone. Something that is deeply felt." This slang is the most common usage of this word today, even becoming a genre of music called Funk.
Though, around that time, many white people also used the term as a derogatory slang towards blacks by giving it the meaning of "the nasty body odor of a black person." This slang definition fell out of use.
Around the 1960s this word gained the meaning of "fine, stylish, or excellent," and could (and still can) be used for anything you like.
