James Brown's work is probably the most sampled of any artist in the history of hip-hop. His song "Funky Drummer" is the single most sampled work in hip-hop, particularly Clyde Stubblefield's break late in the song.
[QUOTE="Eragon_11"]Woah...that's just...wow. He's one of those people you just think would never go... goddamn... EDIT...73, thats not even that old! I thought he was older than that! I think I might actually cry when BB King dies.
THE greatest influence on hip hop. My uncle gave me 5 albums of James Brown awhile back and that's all I've been sampling. My uncle's gonna take it so hard he's like the biggest JamesBbrown fan. Alot of people only know him for I Feel Good and those songs but he is one of the most soulful singers and gets deep in his music
