"ATLANTA (AP) _ Rapper Chuck D once said no one was as funky as James Brown.
His longtime lawyer says Brown always gave his all for his fans, even when he was sick with prostate cancer.
An original member of the Rock-and-Roll Hall of Fame, Brown died today, a day after being admitted to an Atlanta hospital with pneumonia. He was 73.
If you've seen Mick Jagger, Michael Jackson or Prince strut around on stage, you saw Brown's legacy. His high-energy performances earned him the title: "The Hardest Working Man in Show Business."
Brown won three Grammys, including a lifetime achievement award in 1992. And he was one of the first artists inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame."
