For the month of July 2024 several of us are going to take on a 30-Day Nickname Coach4aday Challenge. The simple concept is to share a nickname and tell a little about who it is associated with and why they got tagged with that moniker. Today I’m going with GODFATHER of SOUL
James Brown, known as the Godfather of Soul, revolutionized music with his dynamic stage presence, powerful vocals, and innovative rhythmic style. His influence extended beyond music, as he became a prominent figure in the civil rights movement, advocating for social change and empowerment.
Nickname 30-Day Challenge Guidelines
Like previous challenges there are no hard and fast rules to participate. There are a few suggested guidelines.
- Each day in July learn something or just appreciate a nickname associated with someone.
- Share that name with others
- If so inclined use the hash tag #Coach4adayChallenge on social media platforms
July 2nd-Godfather of Soul
Along with being known as the Godfather JB was also referred to as “The hardest workingman in show business”. He was a master of taking elements of Gospel and making them mainstream. What separated him from other singers was his live shows and his dance moves.
Check out this video of him performing “Out of Sight“
Here is again in 1969 being introduced by Sammy Davis Jr. performing a medley of his songs complete with a Go-Go Dancer on the back of the set.
