Before this moment.

No one had a chance.
Of ever saying anything could potentially have a singular shot at being spoken up as better than this.

Was he ever bigger than Michael Jackson. What about prince

yes....almost every popular genre either domestically or globally after 1964/1965 has Brown's DNA in it even if most don't obviously realize it


james brown is the true foundation disco was born from because Funk music provided Disco with the groove, the long breaks, funky bass and its guitar style. Barry White and Philly Soul made the groove more straight 4/4 and the strings and hissing hi-hats. But Disco was essentially "watered down" Funk.

That James Brown performance was on the TAMI Show and The Rolling Stones were the following and final act. Supposedly, the Rolling Stones were scared to follow James Brown. If you listen to the crowd during JB's performance, it makes the story that much more believable. Mr. Brown wore that crowd out
