GD HE WASN'T CALLED THE GOD FATHER OF SOUL FOR NOTHING!!!! AAA!!!!AAAAA!!!! Think 🤔 without this man, there would be no Mike no Ursher or Chris and shyt. I haven't even mentioned none of the yts he influenced!!!! Every early hip hop track from 80 on up thru the 90s sampled a JB track the "Funky drummer!" 😉 a Lil hip hop lesson within the culture.

I used to get sandwiches for him as a kid. He had a recording studio on Greene St in Augusta, Ga. My grandmother worked upstairs in the boys department at Ruebens Department Store on Broad St. In the summer I would ride my bike to the Sunshine Bakery and get lunch for the department store workers. James gave me 25$ every time but he only ordered maybe 7-10 bucks worth. Told me to never give him change. Dude was a class act despite his personal issues. His family disgraced him after death.
