I was lucky enough to see him perform a few times. I think he is genious, although a little bit psycho too! Long live the Hardest Working Man in Showbuisness!

ATLANTA - James Brown, the dynamic, pompadoured "Godfather of Soul," whose rasping vocals and revolutionary rhythms made him a giant of R&B and an inspiration for rap, funk and disco, died early Christmas morning. He was 73. Brown was hospitalized with pneumonia at Emory Crawford Long Hospital on Sunday and died around 1:45 a.m. Monday, said his agent, Frank Copsidas of Intrigue Music.

He was The Innovator. Now he is dancing among the stars.
Rest In Peace Mr. Brown.

Yes, very sad! Let's have a moment of silence! I think he probably had a full life though!

Yes, very sad he gave birth to a lot of talented artists. Who mimicked his style.

The Godfather will be sorely missed in an era of mostly artificial talent
