    Do yall have any concept of James Brown's impact? He may be the most influential figure to modern music specifically rap. He's the most sampled in Hip hop history. Thats too much to even imagine erasing. And why would you not want that? Why would you not want any of these figures? I dont participate in these because fortunately its a moot point. None of them are "going" anywhere but Sam Cooke is probably the least familiar to me. James Brown was also MJ's biggest inspiration and inspired Prince and countless others. Erase all that where is the sense in that? Not to mention his own songs the big payback, cold sweat, etc. Yeah erase big payback? smh and chuckle.

    And James Brown was influenced by Ray Charles.... And Marvin Gaye was influenced by Sam Cooke

    And Prince has also said he was inspired by Stevie Wonder... Stevie wonder cites Sam Cooke as inspiration...

    Its all related.

    James Brown was nowhere near the singer of the other 3.

    There are songs where u cant even tell if hes speaking english.

    His band and his showmanship carried his songs. Thats not a knock on him thats the truth. And he was a control freak when it came to his band too so the credit there still goes to him.

    But actually singing.... He not ? with Sam, Marvin, or Ray.

    Being able to comprehend lyrics counts as being "awfully technical"?

    James Brown is the GOAT's GOAT. The music we enjoy today wouldn't be the same without him. Some Marvin Gaye will get any party jumping and set the mood right for any occasion with that special lady. The other two are legends but James Brown and Marvin Gaye are ICONS.
