[VincentTPackhorse]

Hey. Get up or shut Up. Take a stand. Listen to the band. If you can't get down then sit down. On my cloud, just part of the crowd. Say it proud, "I'm black and I'm loud." Good God Almighty I can't stand myself!

[Phrixphrox]

Incredible music. The horns! The horns!

[astonehunter]

Poppa James gave the pilgrim rappers of the 70's a great portion of the beats they crafted for groove. Poppa J calls out in rythmic chant to his band, 'Watch me!" Which meant pay attention to his que for shifts or breaks. "Bridge!" Part of his appeal was how he'd turn a large band on a dime in mid groove. At least once I've heard him mention his Rap! Perhaps the youngens of that day picked up on that; when they grabbed the mic they naturally realized they were, "Rappin!"

[mishun1]

@astonehunter Real talk yo....

[danzenie]

I can think of about 100 Hip Hop songs that sampled this track. Classic foundation track right here.

[mwazi1]

NOTHING CAN FUCK WITH THAT JAMES BROWN GUITAR AND DRUMS SOLO...DAMN THIS IS THE SHIT FOR REAL!!!

[oldschoolbx1970]

This is one of the most realest B-Boy joints ever. That's why I'm gonna represent the true culture of Hip Hop at Tools of War in NYC next week. In fact,I represent it non-stop everyday.

[fatshoolaces]

This version is on his 'In The Jungle Groove' lp as well... Superheavy track !!

[IkeDyson71]

@BruhMan09

HUH! All of my videos are vintage James!

[BruhMan09]

@IkeDyson71

Yeah I know but this particular song for me is number 1

[Motionedout]

Don't raise your hand and clench your fist/ Brothers better change your twist...

Don't raise your hand if you don't clean it/ Don't raise your hand if you don't mean it

[Motionedout]

Wait, wait, wait, wait The bigger they come The harder they fall You got an education You won't be caught You got an education You won't have to fall Do it right, you won't have to go back and do it at night Do it one time And make it right You got the world You got to thank

[123djblive]

do it...do it!!!!! damn!!!!!!

[NASAROK101]

3:28 EPIC!!!

[Dmaccabees]

C L A S  S I C FUNK!!!

[s70baby2]

From 3:00 to 3:52, looped until the DJ mixed it with another beat (usually the first 12 seconds of Rufus Thomas' "Funky Penguin"), set many a dance floor on FIRE back when hip hop was just a NY-NJ-CT kinda thing. We LIVED for this beat!

[blackrogue162]

@s70baby2 or it would get mixed with The Mohawks "The Champ"

[s70baby2]

@blackrogue162 Exactly!

[NUTWAVE]

james brown gives me a reason to get up in the morning whenever your down get down with james brown!

[Lar112]

Yes. That is correct. This is the original the 45 speed I had. I remember mine had the black king label on it. Man those were the days.

[twilighter112108]

I never noticed that the 45 was a different speed. Which speed is the actual way it was recorded, the 45 or subsequent releases?

[IkeDyson71]

@twilighter112108

I believe the subsequent cd releases contain the songs at the correct recorded speed. "Funky Drummer" is the most obvious one. I can't fathom how Polydor could be putting out the same songs at different speeds`. I also speeded up my upload of "Funky Drummer" to the speed of the 45 release.. And what is your daughter gonna say when she finds out you have been using her ID? LOL.

[PaulDA2000]

Hard hitting super funk, almost too much to bear, HA! I love the bridge part he added to the live version from 1971 (it's on 'Revolution of the mind and on that live version on Youtube).

[IkeDyson71]

@PaulDA2000

I did the pic here to remind of the old vinyl LP "Soul Classics - Vol 2". Funny thing is, I later came aross a USA pressing of that album, and I discovered that Polydor had been short-changing you guys. In Britain, the "Soul Classics" LPs had more tracks than the US versions. Why the hell would Polydor have done that?

And how do you like the fact that I speeded up this cd version to match the speed of the original King 45?
