Despite his lack of education, which he often cites, and was the source of many of his problems, there was a very smart man there in more ways than one!⚡️🙏
James seems to be very patient with the young lady asking the questions which is very classy for him, he has had his moment in the past with interviewers.😜
Umm he didn't follow the interviews instructions...lol he just continued to answer the questions the way he did before her instructions. go James Brown, I love his style.
I was fortunate enough to see Mr. Brown 3 different times. The last was the September before he passed on Christmas Day. His performance was so incredible that September, it was hard to believe that he died of natural health conditions only a few months later. The only person that I’ve seen that put on an “experience” of a concert in a similar way, was Prince.
Mr Brown, Soul Brother #1 Thanks for your ministry of music and love for all people ❤️ The incredible James Brown shall live forever.His best interview ever!!!
A great person, his great life was really all about the show. A joyful entertainer, he can only speak the truth about the decline of the individual performer. By this time, the engineers and producers had been in almost complete control for about ten years. In the Sixties there were three major camps in R&B: The Atlantic gang, including Stax, Volt, etc....Motown (a few great artists and a whole lot of fluff).......and James Brown, carrying the load, always against the grain. A great original, on the road and in complete charge. The last of the great R&B individuals and stage performers.
@@___________________191I would challenge you to look at where he came from and the time period he came from and find many men who weren’t woman beaters. James was a very complicated man. As Genius’s are bound to be, and someone who grew up in the backwoods of Georgia and in a whorehouse with no mother or father are bound to be. James was a product of his environment. Does that mean it was right. No. He himself acknowledged his faults and apologized to his wives and children, for his behavior before he died. I myself would never lay a hand on a woman, unless absolutely need be in a life or death situation, but I do understand and have a full perspective on James and his life. And I respect him both as an artists and a human being.
I think the fact he preached to respect and appreciate women even if he wasn't himself goes a long way. In his private life he would often tell those around him to never put your hands on a woman like he does. He was very self aware about his own demons. While this is speculative I also think James was very autistic and part of why he acted the way he did (not all autistic people are violent obviously but it can cause it under certain circumstances very similar to the ones that lead to violence in James' life). It would be difficult for me to call James a great person but it would be hard for me to call him a terrible person as well.
Now how the hell are you talking to the King but you telling him how to answer the question smdh. People so funny smdh 😡 he should've stopped the interview. Thats the KING ... LADY ... You were actually pretty lucky to have an opportunity to interview the 👑 King
You are so right. You could tell he was getting annoyed by that. If you were lucky enough to get personal access to Mr. Brown, figure out how he wants to be interviewed and work around that!
This is right when he was about to go to prison, when they shout out his tires, so he just was not happy with just the f*** off LoL 🤣🤣🤣 but he'll always be the king.
Think about this. James Brown wasn't just labeled Godfather of Soul. But he was pretty much the first one to do what I would call modern rap which became what we know today as Hip Hop. And don't forget the energetic performances on stage. Without James Brown, there would be no... Michael Jackson Prince Mc Hammer 2 Pac Ice Cube Usher Chris Brown The Weeknd Justin TImberlake And many more....
The lady giving the interview seems rude at times. Also, she asks the questions in a cold~like manner....no expression or excitement in her voice whatsoever.
She doesn't seem very professional. Like an undergrad journalism major attempting to do a project. Need someone older who can understand better who they're talking to.
Derrick Trahan he didn't need too he's the King. He doing the interview she is nobody important. Some people are so conformed to doing things their way but she was actually privileged to do the interview for real
@@fourdevils694 How now. No need for that. Should always been polite on the internet. You wouldn't say that if we could see your face so don't say it online.
@@robinlewis1975 I love James but they're right, this is hard to watch. He's clearly tired and he's answering questions super slowly. He still gives some pretty good answers but the whole thing is very awkward. He was just on the Bill Boggs show earlier that day and clearly his social battery ran out.
Despite his lack of education, which he often cites, and was the source of many of his problems, there was a very smart man there in more ways than one!⚡️🙏
I love hearing his incredible knowledge of all music genres.
He is an real American treasure!
No one can EVER replace this Legend James Brown. R.I.P
the interviewer Has NO clue who she's talking to.
God Bless you Mr. Brown "RIP" Such a classy interview.
Fully agree
Number one soul brother 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Mr. Brown was my first concert in Flint Michigan and that was memorable for me andd it was the best along with Whitney Houston.
James seems to be very patient with the young lady asking the questions which is very classy for him, he has had his moment in the past with interviewers.😜
Umm he didn't follow the interviews instructions...lol

go James Brown, I love his style.
whrong, he gives alot of history behind them and with a pint of humor, which is basicly telling him to sniff some before set ;)
Because he's the BOSS :)
Words from a very intelligent man and a real legend.RIP James Brown
Wow! Very impressed with James being able to hold his own.
The all time best performer I’ve ever witnessed in a live performance. This interviewer has no idea who she is interviewing.
I was fortunate enough to see Mr. Brown 3 different times. The last was the September before he passed on Christmas Day.

I saw him only once, in 1979. A truly amazing show.
A true legend!
I love him
He paid the cost to be the boss.
Mr Brown, Soul Brother #1 Thanks for your ministry of music and love for all people ❤️ The incredible James Brown shall live forever.His best interview ever!!!
This man doesn't seem to be high like folks always making him out to be. He seems fine.
I love the way James Brown didn't follow her instructions. 😆
😂😂😂
LOVE IT. He followed one direction then stopped!! Lol
😂 I am drug free, i don't know why i have the giggles. Oh my goodness!
Atp this man was fed up 💀
But I loved how he kept it professional 😌 love him sm

He wasn't not a great person dude only a great artist
I’m not a James brown hater, but he was actually a very bad person. I like his music, but he was a woman beater.

This interview sealed his fate. 😪💔 Great interview though.💯💯💯
I miss you very much GOD father gone but not for gotten
He doesn't seem very thrilled with this lady...lol
Good stuff!
Despite his bad behaviors, he taught singers how to own and produce their own music and companies
He definitely didn’t like this interview
Now how the hell are you talking to the King but you telling him how to answer the question smdh. People so funny smdh 😡 he should've stopped the interview. Thats the KING ... LADY ... You were actually pretty lucky to have an opportunity to interview the 👑 King

Love mr Brown, great artist and he would of also made for a great nfl announcer in the 70s
self educated people are the smartest people
1:49 look at that finger indentation between his eyebrows.👆He was blessed because he was sick as a baby and almost didn't make it...
At this point I know the man was tired. RIP to the hardest working man in show business, they don’t even deserve your presence here
James acknowledges Prince in this interview...nice.
i wonder what he would say about modern music if he said all the 80s artists sound the same xD
Goud 2020
RIP GOD father of Soul
The woman interviewing sounds like Diane from Cheers.
I’m sorry I can’t watch anymore right now, this lady, WTH is she a cyborg! Damn.
Ray goodman and brown the moments the best

he got annoyed loll
+Love2The9s Because she was horrible.
U can tell in his face he was fed up 💀
This lady interviewing is a rock
Dude was already old before I was born - 12/02/1986.
he was in his 50s
My nana was born 12/02/1917.
Is she still alive?
Yes, he was born over 50 years before you...whats your point
You're a bitch
We don’t have a Soul
We are a Soul☮️
He never speak about bobby byrd who help him in this business
Bobby Byrd was the reason we even know James Brown.
love him in this interview but he forgot all about what she said. lol
He may not have forgotten... probably was teaching her a subtle lesson on respect for greatness! 🤷🏽♂️☺️
@@joshuacampbell9717 💯💯💯❤
i swear he always said the same thang... lol....
Worse interviewer's ever.So unprofessional.
20:18 whose name did he say? John...? I can't catch it :( Please help
Jane Volk he said John Belushi
How couldn't she piece together Belushi with Akroyd and he says BLUES BROTHERS. You sound really amateur, EVGENIA

Can't hear the questions
James brown was very paranoid here all felt very annoyed
