      Genus - Below Family but Above Species - Genus no Fuuc all of that... King never was on his knees and the way he died prove it. Standing up for for our people. ‘King said, Never let no one ☝️ take your manhood’. That’s just money 💴 he talking but when you mention the King name, come correct. King stood for his right to make his own moves so if he’s mad about people’s choice in music or his lazy son then maybe he need to check the man in the mirror. See this is why entertainers are just that.

I can personally attest to how folks like James, Muhammad Ali, and a few others impacted my life as a child. Thanks JB !

    Mr. James Brown PAID Me My FIRST $100.00 Bill! He Autographed it when I was age 13; for having Drawn His Portrait. He wrote basically "Stay Black; and Stay in School; With All My Love, James Brown!" My Mother & I Enjoyed meeting with Him; after His Show. He kissed Me, Autographed My Brochure, and I was later published on the front page of My hometown Black-owned Newspaper. A few years later at age 15, My Mother; and I Spent an afternoon visiting with The Jackson Five & their Dad. Great Humanitarians; who Inspired Me to Achieve Great Success!❤👑

    One thing James Brown and a few of the greats of the past were consistent on was studying those who came before them. And then finding a way to pay homage yet still keep their own originality and soul. And to evolve and advance music and their own lives and the lives of others. Good clip ! Thanks for sharing it.

    Please remember, The Godfather of Soul, earned his Doctorate and was inaugurated on his homegoing day in Augusta Ga., my wife and I was there, and I lost some of my hearing, when the shining black Prince the Honorable Michael Jackson, walked on stage! So his daughter Dana along with others announced his new title before the audience, "Dr. James Brown The Godfather of Soul". What a day that was.

People tune in to hear the guest talk about themselves & their career. The audience does not is not interested in the interviewer trying to sound clever!
