He traveled around the world and got more famous. People really liked his song. In 1986, James Brown was one of the 10 inductees into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He had many skills; he was a musician, songwriter, actor, dancer, bandleader, and record producer. In 2003 he received a Kennedy Center Honors. He had a lot of accomplishments in his life.

I chose to write about James Brown because I wanted to learn about a new singer. I really like him because even though he had a tough time, he never gave up. He always kept going and accomplished his dreams. He was a really brave man. I feel bad for him because he had a harsh childhood and because of his parents he had to go through a really hard time.
