"He [James Brown] was almost a musical genre in his own right and he changed and moved forward the whole time so people were able to learn from him. QUOTE FROM JIMMY PAGE.

[makme514]

What would rappers have done had there been no James Brown? They should be thanking JB everyday of the week, the King of funk, the Godfather of Soul....

[Lasercrew420]

This is the track that is playin in the casino .......GTA : San Andreas

[wislene1000]

[lefreak79]

DOESN'T SOUND LIKE RAP TO ME. SOUNDS LIKE A FREAKY DEAKY TO ME!

DISCO AL

[sicilian12345]

I've played so much Black jack to this song at the Casino, San Andreas

[RikJamezBich]

haha nice @ 2:27 the classic 70's stache version of JB zoom effect. Longlive!

[ELGROOVER]

To RikJamezBich ~ hehehe... it's the John Bull Printing Set for the 21st Century.

~ Alas Vegas! ☼ ;-j

[RikJamezBich]

@ELGROOVER He should totally be on our money. I mean come on, imagine what music would be like without him. We might be listening to big band jazz. No thanks.

[420LaYzIe420]

The casinos in San Andreas are always playing this song.

[7deepbreaths]

[AstroBoii412]

kanye sampled that one part where the lady says "hey" for "Live Fast, Die Young"

[Duval1790]

@AstroBoii412 I Wonder If He Realize That Pete Rock Sampled That Same Part For Skinz Back On Mecca and the Soul Brother?! lol

[AstroBoii412]

@Duval1790 Oh Yeah That TOO!!!

[XXthCenturyAnalogue]

@AstroBoii412

This is one of the most heavily-sampled songs of all time!

[reesecups100]

Truly "The Godfather of Soul" at his finest!! We skated of so many JB songs in Chicago I used to think he used to just make records for us to skate to!!!

[Darkenroom]

@reesecups100 Skate City was the joint for me in those days.

[musicmsl]

LORD...He was sooo underrated and never got his due! What a genius from rough beginnings!

[baaman00]

@musicmsl ...rough endings, too!

[skaterboyask]

THIS SONG IS CHILLIN TIME TO GET DRUNK AND DO THE JAMES BROWN!

[ELGROOVER]

to skaterboyask ~ This always stirs my tea, it's hot ;-j

[Jigov]

@skaterboyask o yeaaaa: )

[DanceMuzak]

Is this as good as it gets? I think so.

[dmc081]

sounds like rap but rap from the 60's

[ELGROOVER]

to dmc081 ~ yea... !! I was momentarily confused by some modern references to JB as being a "rapper". Being long in the tooth, it's just funk & soul to my mind, but yes, of course...it's rap alright...and Goddamned good rap too, (not like some of th@ stuff going around nowadays, you know....the stuff with the invisible ("c") prefixed to it) ~ ☺ ;-j

[reymisterio56]

people of rap made sample of James Brown and Rick James,kool The Gang,Cameo band,Taste of honey etc.

[iwannafite]

Kanye sampled this for Live Fast Die Young, where is it @?

[KanyeisBest815]

[iop223]

my dad met james brown on a business trip in shanghai airport, he kicks ass

[BlackPowerFist3000]

Glad to find people like me who like like this music. I grew up on this in the 80's, it's 2010 and to me this is the best music out here. It had down to earth actua factual commen sense messages that could solve a lot of problems today. How i wish.

[tygaelement]

james brown is my most played,most collected artist, I like how his songs have so much space & freedom.

I'm sure he sings " put up a factory own a job "

He also sounds like he swore when he sings "aint no funking job to be found"

I never knew Wilbur Bascomb was on bass & david sanborn was on sax?

[aniel198]

First I opened my ear to Hip Hop

Then it makes me go back to listen to funk, soul, and jazz music

Damnnnnnnnn if I was grown up in the 70's I must miss this like crazy

[ELGROOVER]

As someone who did grow up in the 60's/70's, I can tell ya, yea...but then no, I don't really miss it, 'cos after all those years it's still right here right now, whenever you want to find it. It never went away! ☺ ;-j

[haashond]
