Video Description:
Exclusive Footage and Interview
James Brown Dies at the Age of 73 on Christmas Morning. But he is just part of a bigger story, the changing of the guard, the black icons/leadership/pioneers that we have been losing at a rapid pace, must be replaced by you, the future. We are personally sad, because James Brown blessed us with
this interview early in BlackTree Media's career, and it put us on a stage that we have grown tremendously from. We owe a lot to JB. In this clip you will see James Brown performing with the King of Pop, Michael Jackson at the 2003 BET Awards in Los Angeles. This marks the first time we covered t
he BET Awards, and it is our first major interview with a Big Celebrity, what better way to start then with James Brown and Michael Jackson. The performance video is courtesy of BET, the interview is a BlackTree Exclusive. Enjoy, and we thank you. BET COMMEMORATES THE LIFE OF LEGENDARY ENTERTAINE
