Singer James Brown, known as the Godfather of Soul, passed away early this morning, December 25th 2006, at Emory Crawford Long Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia.

James Brown, the dynamic, pompadoured "Godfather of Soul," whose rasping vocals and revolutionary rhythms made him a founder of rap, funk and disco as well, died early Monday, his agent said. He was 73.

Brown was hospitalized with pneumonia at Emory Crawford Long Hospital on Sunday and died around 1:45 a.m. Monday, said his agent, Frank Copsidas of Intrigue Music. Longtime friend Charles Bobbit was by his side, he said.

Copsidas said Brown's family was being notified of his death and that the cause was still uncertain. "We really don't know at this point what he died of," he said.

Pnumonia I heard. Godfather of Soul, Soul Brother Number One, the Hardest Working Man in Show Business, Mr. Dynamite, a definition for 'Legend'. I won't miss him because his recordings are still here.
