If you read this blog, dj, or even just listen to music - JAMES BROWN changed your life! Period. End of story.
His beats, rhythms, style, and all around pimped-ness have been bitten and copied for decades, and are still imitated today. Yesterday was the 2 year Anniversary of the Godfather of Soul's death, and not one news station I saw even mentioned him. So sad....
Here's a few clips i found on youtube to commemorate this Legend.
The first shows the Hardest Working Man in show business on an old Playboy TV show. He got the white girls singing " i'm black and i'm proud"


Here's a VH1 show where he runs thru a medley of hits:


Here he is in Africa with Muhammad Ali (possibly rocking the same ill kit he had on VH1 show)::


And finally here's the infamous CNN interview, where despite being clearly wasted, he still kills the interview. Only the Godfather could have pulled this off:


Instead of the "Changed My Life" shirts, i wanna make some that just say " I owe it all to James..."
