This weekend I saw "Get On Up", the James Brown movie. I went with my dancer friends, which made the outing twice as fun! We have been taking an old school hip hop dance class together, so it was great seeing a lot of the moves we are learning up on the big screen. James Brown definitely is the godfather of funk - his music made you want to get up and dance. The movie made me realize what a musical genius he is. He put amazing rhythms together, and it was fueled by gospel, funk, and jazz. I recommend this movie to anyone, especially those who love a good sound track! This relates to hip hop because James Brown's songs always come up in dance class!
