Those of us who knew him were keenly aware that music allowed him to rise from his own difficult circumstances on the streets, to one of the most influential and important cultural icons in the world. It was very important for him to find a way to give back, states a Brown representative.

In addition sensational recording artist Rynard Brown, future star recording artist Esty, Readnex Poetry Squad and many others will share the stage.
“The hardest-working man in show business, James Brown at the age of 73 has transitioned to the next level. He left behind a legacy of music second to none. The impact that he has made on the world of music transcends 5 decades. His countless hits have influenced all genres of music from funk, R & B, hip-hop, disco and rock. He has been an image of entertainment for all audiences for as long most can recall and it is our responsibility to honor such an icon.” states Damon Finch one of the presidents of Solid S.T.E.P.S.
