It finally came to me last night. James Brown’s love child. We all knew about Al Sharpton, but his second love child has been kept quiet until now. It has been working my nerves for almost a month and now I can finally let it go. I am embarrassed that it took me so long to figure it out. All the clues were right there in front of my face and I couldn’t see them.

I’ve been following James Brown from the beginning through his first, second and third comebacks and still, I didn’t know. I don’t how many parties I’ve been to that the Godfather of Soul was blasting on the box and had every booty shaking on the floor having a “Funky Good Time.”

It was right there in his voice and the words, but the mind can play tricks onyou and make you forget. I should have known, the scratchy voice, the funky riff and lyrics only Jame’s mother could understand, but it escaped until last night.

My friend Jack Daniel’s and I were bumping it against the wall, listening to the box, chilling out when it hit me like the “big Pay Back”—Mystikal! Mystikal is James Brown’s love child.

It was so obvious that now I wonder how I couldn’t see it. When I listen to Mystikal, except for the title hooks, I can’t understand a **** thing he’s saying without an interpreter, which is usually one of my sons and even they aren’t in agreement. Still, the beat and funky riff give it away. No doubt about it, Mystikal is James Brown’s love child.



:D

:rolleyes:

When we have fun at someone's expense and we know it--it's called tongue in cheek--you have to be a James Brown fan and a musician to see the similarity between the two--Ra

I understood perfectly....I just didn't think it was very good "tongue and cheek". That was just my reaction to it all....nothing more. :rolleyes:

kebah

Bravo for your insight!

Ra

:)

so you had a talk with Jack Dan, huh?

you are too funny. last year one of the students in a school i was in was printing pictures of Master P off the internet - a school no-no because of the content and the barechested picture.

anyway, i wanted the boy to do a report on James Brown. i told him that James Brown was the daddy of that music and now, just like you, i feel so stupid for not realizing it before.

but during your talk with Jack, he must have told you that Master P and Mystikal are both James Browns chil'ren.

I hadn't thought about it, but the styles, the riffs and especially the words we can't qite make out--should have been a deadgive away--Brother Jack often befuddles the mind as it clarifies--Ra

:D

hell Ra..... man bring ole moses round i need to hear dis wise man ...

Old Mose been absent and about time to hear from him--Ra

:)

:D

That man's a genius! and so insightful and willing to share his wisdom.

you know, i'm starting to appreciate that old man's drink. no offense...

yeah! wiser speaks clear and feeds knowledge
but dem rappers ((((skaking my water head))))
i just don't know ..

In fact, I really like Mystikal. His words tend to be gutterish and trite, but he delivers a beat, funky riffs and an occassional thought that isn't in his pants--basically, it's easy to dance to and has good beat--Ra

so true i love some music but what they saying i'm lost......

Listen to James Brown first and then listen to Mstykal--then you can understand because you've had the crash translation course--Ra

:D

At the risk of lookin' ignorant...Al Sharpton I know, James Brown I know...but who is Mystical??? :)

Mystikal is a rapper. He's vulgar and trite, but his music always has a good hook and a funky riff or two. He definitely is not everyone'c cup of tea, but for good dance music--he's all right. His two popular hits are Shake It Fast (the real name is Shake Your ***) and Bumping Me Against the Wall. Shake Your *** was part of the Rush Hour II soundtrack featuring Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan.

:lol: yall off the hook up in here....but shoot i cant understand nothing Mystikal say......either .... smh

sho nuff i mean whoa !!!!!
