Are ya'll ready for star time? Well, here he is, The Godfather of Soul, Mr. Dynamite, Soul Brother number 1, Mr. Please Please Please, the hardest working man in show business...
He came like a phoenix on stages across the world, dancing, gyrating, jumping, screaming and sang-n! Keeping his band tight and the soul tighter, putting out double albums and two albums in one year like it wasn't no thang. When a reporter asked JB why he had so many versions of sex machine on different albums the Godfather simply said "because the song wasn't finished yet."
He is the Godfather of soul, hip hop and funk. Without JB ain't no funk for Dr. Funkenstein to take to the mothership; Hip Hop's golden era is more like copper; And soul music, as we know it, is a nice, tasteful salad, as opposed to the chicken, biscuits and buttermilk the Godfather heated up under that cape.
Are ya'll ready for star time? Well, here he is, The Godfather of Soul, Mr. Dynamite, Soul Brother number 1, Mr. Please Please Please, the hardest working man in show business... JAAAAAAAAAAAMES BROWN!
God wanted the funk and only one man could give it to him. R.I.P. Mr. Brown and thank you.
