AceShowbiz - CeeLo Green and Dallas Austin give Billboard an exclusive tour of the legendary James Brown's home in Augusta, Georgia. Despite Green's self-proclaimed lack of being the biggest James Brown fan, he corrects Austin's guess of "Living In America" as Brown's highest-charting hit, revealing it to be "I Got You." Green shares that the tour inspired the Gnarls Barkley song "Who's Gonna Save My Soul Now?" and that the untouched Christmas tree in the home, dating back to the year of Brown's passing, was particularly moving.
The article also announces an unforgettable event hosted by the James Brown Family Foundation on May 20, 2023. The event will feature appearances and performances by celebrities such as CeeLo Green, Dallas Austin, Kid Capri, and more. A live auction with one-of-a-kind James Brown memorabilia will take place, with proceeds benefiting the James Brown Family Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to continuing Brown's legacy of charitable giving.
The James Brown Family Foundation, established in 2007, supports underprivileged children and impoverished families worldwide. Through its initiatives, the foundation aims to touch the lives of those less fortunate and carry on Brown's vision of hope and generosity. Tickets for the event are limited and expected to sell out quickly, offering an opportunity to connect with celebrities and support a meaningful cause.
