“I have always admired James and learned so much from him.”

Questlove and Black Thought also released a statement on their latest creative endeavor.

“The life of James Brown is significant not only to understand his immense musical impact, which inspires us and other artists to this day, but also for the deep and lasting impression he has had on American culture.”

“Brown’s life is a crucial and timely story of struggle, redemption, and self-identity and we are honored to have the chance to share it.”
