sanjuz - hip hop as executed by heavy d or digital underground has so much charm - and phrasing i'm sure mr brown dug to hear - and to be as funny as they were by times, give or take kenny k's fake nose character, does take talent. Live bandmembers accompanying DU when I saw them all had skills of the sort built in church or chitlin' circuit, and perfected in JB's, the template created and done.
And many hip-hops campaigned for JB awareness, and for his comebacks - of which I count four.
@newsmanbluesman - to me rap is one of the most Exciting and Original Art-Forms to emerge in the last 50 years along with Doo-Wop and Above-The-Rimming (Dr J) - Das Efx, MC Treach, Rakim, Kool Keith, et al - the Rappers have elevated the English Language Above Shakespeare (white folks still hung up on Shakespeare) - an INCREDIBLY beautiful blonde girl recently said to me - so you are going to be a Big Rapper ? - I took it as the ultimate compliment
@newsmanbluesman - amidst a Sea Of Jewels I still think this track is the greatest rap-track of the 1990s - some days I think Gandhi was the greatest man of the 20th C, other days Bruce Lee, BUT most days I am convinced it was James Brown
The original single would have been a great James Brown song with Mr. Brown singing the whole song with more lyrics and without the useless rapping. I don't care how much he influenced it, I can't stand it.
@sanjuz - Because it is a bogus art form. You take the greatness of James Brown: created funk, helped form soul, singer, dancer, writer, producer, band director, etc, and have it degenerate into these folks who can't sing, can't dance, can't perform other than walk around the stage swinging their arms back and forth and wearing pants down to their knees looking like a bunch of apes. Very little talent is required other than to remeber the rap lyrics and have a rhythm when they speak them.
One of the best James Brown tracks of all time. Much of his later work has been overlooked because it never made it commercially, and much of it is just as good and even better than many of his his most famous tracks.
Ther is a line dance for this song. Does anybody has a video on how it is to be done? I've seen the dance when i was in Charleston S.C., but forgot how to do it. The dance is really cool. THANKS
OMG!!!!!!!....I remember getting down to this mix back when i was at school i didn't know what it was called and thought i'd never hear it again.....brings back alot of awesome memories LOL!!!
DOPE!
