Except that I am not making an apology, so there isn't an apology for you to accept. What about my original post is incorrect, dan?

Was Brown a drug addict? Yes he was.

Was Brown in and out of jail? Yes he was.

Was he a role model to some? Yes he was.

Did I say that any of this was a reason he "deserved" to die (your words, not mine)? No I did not.



What exactly are you wanting an apology for? :lol: Or are you just trying to be a dick?

Another drug addicted jailbird role model dead. :bon_voyag

Those were your words.

"Oh, no you haven't.
There's more- much more- where that came from."

I have no doubt there is.......I can only imagine :rofl

Those were your words.

Yes, those were my words ... and I'll ask you once again, what did I say that wasn't true? James Brown was a drug addict. James Brown was a jailbird. James Brown was a role model. James Brown is now dead. All of it true.

You're just trying to be an a$$, as usual.

I cannot believe that god-damn Republican Gerald Ford. He deliberately died just take sympathy away from the black man!

You do seem to use your imagination quite a bit.....unfortunately it seems to come into play where actual Data and Logic should be used.

Danareah you act like without blacks we wouldn’t have music at all.

I love black music but whites didn’t steal everything from them good gosh.
And look at the black crap out today. So who do we thank for that stuff?

Today, unfortunatly it seems like the majority of top black musicians have to rely on filth, profanity and sexually explicit lyrics to sell their stuff.

“If it weren't for drugs, we probably wouldn't have music, or art, or even great literature, for that matter.”


OMGosh you just have to be kidding. I’ve heard it all now.

There would still be classical music. :lol:

The crap that is sold as rap/hip-hop/r&b is pushed so far because that is what sells, the image of gangsta black dudes sellin' drugs and killing fools. Most of the people buying that are white suburban kids. I guess they like to have the worst stereotypes reinforced.

As for the drugs: you might need to do your homework. :2razz:

Without Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf, there most likely wouldn't have been rock n' roll.

And don't forget the little guys who helped make it happen, like Lightnin' Hopkins.
