Dre speaks on Brown

[The Predator]

See this apparently this what Dre had to say about James Brown

''One of the godfathers of gangsta rap says he really felt the loss of the Godfather of Soul. "James Brown was the soundtrack of black America in the '60s and '70s," Dr. Dre said. "Growing up, his music was everywhere. That's why it found its way into so many hip-hop tracks. That, plus the fact that nobody laid down a beat like him. ... Nobody was even close. He invented the rule that every producer in rap lives and dies by: Make it funky."
