Hearing this news today really hit me hard. James Brown’s music and his dancing style, especially, was very inspirational to me. I am deeply saddened by his death, but I also know that the best way to cure my sadness is to listen to his rhythm… and let myself get lost in it once again.
Thanks for everything, James Brown. Your music has seen me through some dark times.
