RIP James Brown

Today, December 25, 2006, we lost another cultural icon. James Brown, who was hospitalized just yesterday for extreme pneumonia, died of heart failure around 1:45 am today. He was 73 years old.

JB was one of the most influential artists in pop music history. He certainly influenced R&B and hip-hop, but his influence has spread to almost every genre of pop music.

Take some time today, and listen to your favorite James Brown song. That is undoubtedly how he would want to be remembered.
