I don’t think it was as detrimental to radio stations as it was album sales. People were starting to get sick of paying 20-25$ bucks a cd. What a rip off! Adjusted for inflation that has to be around 30 bucks a pop for one tiny piece of plastic
Yeah man, I tell ya what, man. That dang ol' internet, man. You just go on there and point and click. Talk about W-W-dot-W-com. An' lotsa nekkid chicks on there, man. Click Click Click Click Click. It's real easy, man.
@@F0nkyNinja it's safe to say most people stream music as opposed to listening to radio stations I don't think I've tuned into a radio station by choice for a decade at least
This shows how good of an interviewer Nardwuar is. He's nervous, you notice, and so would I be. But he's still so composed and honorful. Can't believe I've never seen this one, thought I had seen them all.
Nardwuar goofy personality always brings the true self of celebrities,cause nobody feels threathened by such good hearthed guy so they can just be themselves in front of the camera,that's something no other interviewer can do
James Brown actually seems like a down to earth guy, my grandmother met him at an airport once and sat with him and his wife while they were waiting for luggage
Nardwuar, I'm hoping from the bottom of my soul you have a Michael Jackson interview hidden away in your interviews vault that you're willing to upload soon.
I hope the messy mugshot, late version of james brown gets forgotten and this version of him is what more people remember. Guy was sharp as a tack and knew his stuff. Pure talent and skill musically, easily top 5 musical artists. Amazing.
Also it's a re-upload. I've been following / watching Nardwuar for almost 20 years lol. I'm sure I'm not the only who's seen this interview like 3 or 4 times, it was on Much Music (Canadian music channel) a couple times and he's uploaded this before. So it's understandable, plus a lot of the new generation don't really get James Browns soul music or even recognize him.
+TheCr3w the only comment that speaks the truth. this video has been uploaded before. If anything im curious on to why he re uploaded. great work from nardward.
Man, I gotta say those vocals are awesome from the ladies James played counterpoint against. I love it. Dont stop what you're doing. This world needs more of the pure and honestly delivered forms of art like those who wrote the book to begin with.
@ObsidianBuddah Michael Jackson WAS discovered...Joe Jackson managed his children since birth, you're correct, but the children he was managing didn't include Michael until he was discovered by Bobby Taylor and then Diana Ross in the latter half of the 60s; Michael wasn't originally part of the group, James Brown was Michael's biggest influence.
The more I watch you Nardwuar, the more I see how intelligent you are. Not just the research and passion, but you've got those extra memorable things like your name and outfit, signature gifts and final pose. Love you man.
Contrary to popular belief James Brown was from Barnwell South Carolina. People gotta give my home state some credit. We have great culture. Most people believe he was born an raised in Georgia but he wasn’t just very close to the state line . Even the movies get it wrong.
LOVED....this interview. Mr. Brown proves to be quite lucid and quite candid. Highly enjoyable. R.I.P. Mr Brown. Without him The Music World is Lost....in the Wilderness...... Lost.....in Bitterness....it's Lost.... This is a "Mans'' World....... But it wouldnt be Nothing without a Woman or a girl.
Nardwuar, u did an excellent job interviewing Mr. Brown. U did your homework and made the interview light, fun and with respect. He clearly likes u and that’s a very good thing. Glad i watched this interview.
“What do you think of sweat Mr. Brown?” Totally caught JB off guard and got him to smile. Two legends in their own right. This is a piece of history we are witnessing.
Mr. Brown... Singer, organist, pianist, drummer, dancer, songwriter, producer, bandleader, innovator... Good lord, what didn't this man do?! Pure genius level talent!
That version of try me will be the best version I’ve ever heard in my life! Gave me the warm and fuzzies. What a moment to remember to have the one and only James Brown and his backup singers do it live like that for the legendary narduar. Also JB is the only person who can get away with the improper doot doot.
This is such an iconic interview. It really shows what james was about. Right from the jump hes like, "Whats with the Mr. Brown? Call me james baby". Such a chill cat to be as famous(& fly) as he is. Funk og thru all the generations around today. Im talkin bout been pimpin' since been pimpin' since been pimpin' pimpin'
Im just waiting for the Mozart interview any day now
Shit, I just commented the exact same joke and I look like a scrape now

I know he got Jesus interview coming soon too
ARMOROLSOUL Wait, if he did Lucy the Australopithecus too....🤔😂
Is anyone else just discovering this?
yea randomly recommended
Yup. Asshole RUclips at it again
He has a 2pac interview for sure
Mhm
Just popped up on my feed.....I wonder how things like this float up to the top
I couldn't even imagine being in the presence of James brown
I wouldn't even be able to talk.
Yeah, James Brown was a cold dude. Gotta respect him but he can come off as bristle because he demands respect
he's just a human who returned to the earth and all of us will to in 100 years
Right? Who would want to be around that egotistical dickhead..
I met him once but I didn’t know how big of a deal it was..
Rare fact: James Brown was the first to discover Nardwuar
i’m a couple years late but RUclips algorithm threw me the oop
Honest A**hole fax’s
Same. Had no clue this interview existed and I’ve seen a lot of Nards stuff
Ditto, it makes you wonder what other awesome interviews he has in the can. I have both of the DVDs but have never seen this one.
How old is this men lol
Honest A**hole same wtf
Nardwuar vs Tupac coming soon.
LEL
Darnell Jackson I would lose my shit if he actually did that. Already crazy he did James Brown.
Your a fool 😂😂😂
Oh my fucking God I would cream my pants

it was actually re-uploaded
+MNIMnoob ah ok thanks for the knowledge, he could upload it earlier tho like he did on the Kurt Cobain interview

Cause he liked it
Facts
Nardwuar got a personal concert from James Brown. Let that sink in.
Actually it's precisely what he deserved. Best interviewer ever gets the hardest working man in show business. Game 👀 Game
It’s funny how Nardwuar plays down his character for James.
This was in 1999 bro, he’s being himself
@@Bankallday pfft. He is a fucking pain in the ass. A dumb pain in the ass.
But not so dumb not to know when his pathetic shtick will end up with him getting his dumbass kicked to hell and back.

It's called respect
@@bpar73 Yep, Brown is music royalty.
His character development wasn’t yet finished bro
i was waiting for "who are you" in the beginning but thats James Brown so thats understandable
Lol Nardwuar would have caught a classic James Brown beatdown
He didn't do that back then
I know its Nardwuar and everything but I'm still a little amazed he had the balls to run the "Doo doodle doo doo" on James Brown!
Blacklava TWICE! Lol
Kinda bummed he didn’t Cooperate ☹️
@Johnny Vex he got it from the ladies so he kinda did lol. However, it was weak as tap water🤣 hail Satan
@@thenewdali1 this was Nardwuar's favorite doot doola doo he ever got

The decade is almost over and the RUclips algorithm has blessed me with this interview. The legend of Nardwuar

Crazy how in 1999 james brown recognized that the internet was going to destroy radio stations
I don’t think it was as detrimental to radio stations as it was album sales. People were starting to get sick of paying 20-25$ bucks a cd. What a rip off! Adjusted for inflation that has to be around 30 bucks a pop for one tiny piece of plastic

The Nard-Dog wouldn't DARE do the "who are you?" to James Brown ahaha
He didn't really do that back then. He did it to jay z snoop and everyone else in the modern ones.
Green Light Music he knew how easily his mood would swing. There’s a lot of stories you’ve gotta check out.
@@derfgerps4016 I'm actually surprised how behaved Brown remained
@@BuuhBlocks the one with jay z was lol, the guy started a sermon to a simple question like who are you
Nardwuar can die happy he's interviewed that many legends.
He is a legend
Hearing James Brown sing “Try Me” always makes me nostalgic for a time in which I never existed but desperately wish I did.
I already had a lot of respect for Nardwaur and his great interviews but this was icing on the cake
Hands down one of his best!
Nardwuar goofy personality always brings the true self of celebrities,cause nobody feels threathened by such good hearthed guy so they can just be themselves in front of the camera,that's something no other interviewer can do
Cherry on top 🍒
"What do you think of Sweat, Mr. Brown?"
Asking James brown this question is honestly the funniest thing ever and he loved it
James Brown actually seems like a down to earth guy, my grandmother met him at an airport once and sat with him and his wife while they were waiting for luggage
The Godfather of soul. Modern Hip hop, soul, R&B, rock... all was birthed out of this mans sweat and tears.
He sold his soul on the crossways.. he was a good singer but he was never a good dancer... lol

Number1SoundSystem true. Even his family couldn't see Michael without an appointment.

Because some people don't appreciate greatness
415k but still deserves more
This man even had Mr. Brown (James Brown) saying " how did you know that?" Nardi is the interview goat!

No idea this happened
this one is probably one of the most unique nardwuar interviews. in the sense that it's less crazy than most of all others :)
Rest in peace James brown

You can tell he loved performing when not 1 minute into an interview he has to round up the crew to sing a little.

I may shed a tear. James Brown has been one of my favorite artists in music for as long as I can remember. Real legendary and hella DYNAMITE!!!
Nardwuar: Yeah he discovered Michael jackson, James Brown: I discovered Michael Jackson 0___0
No evidence suggests James Brown does extensive music history research. Nardwaur on the other hand...I believe Nard

Not only did he get an interview with James Brown but he also got a personal one song concert by Godfather of soul.

***Closed captions help significantly***
Nardwuar shows respect like this to certain artists. Daniel Johnston and James Brown are two I can think of off the top of my head.
Nardwaur's legit star struck
To give a private performance for a random interview just speaks to the type of artist he is.
Nardwuar just reached GOAT status today with this interview. This will always be my Thanksgiving tradition now to watch this.
