Godfather of Soul James Brown Dies of Heart Failure
Yesterday morning on Christmas Day, singer James Brown died of heart failure two days after he was hospitalized with pneumonia. The 73-year-old also had diabetes and prostate cancer.
Brown was himself to the end, at one point saying, “I’m going away tonight,” said friend Charles Bobbit, who was with Brown when he died.
“I didn’t want to believe him,” he said.
A short time later, Brown sighed quietly, closed his eyes and died, Bobbit said.
All around the world, fans are paying tribute to the legend.
