James Brown, Sex Machine RIP

Today, Christmas Day, marks the passing of one of music's greatest frontmen, James Brown. He brought to my word lots of great music hidden in today's hip hop songs as mere loops, but they were true testimonies to his talent and his ability to influence music even today.

In my ears, he never hid who he was from his listeners: gritty, soulful, and always down to have a good time. He truly was an artist in every sense of the word. He will be missed.

...

Happy Christmas to all you holy people. Thanks to the Weekender and Etcha for hosting us, and for Teach and Mighty Mom for comin' through. Much love. Be safe this weekend everyone. Enjoy the shopping tomorrow too!

My first really exposure to James was Eddie Murphy's impression in his first standup on HBO. I laughed my ass off at it, and when I finally heard James it all made sense.
