      His moves, his steps are often plagiarized.
      His influence is stronger in the music industry .
      his dance moves are very often copied

    It only becomes more powerful with time, somehow. 51-year-old white guy, grew up listening to metal, jazz, classical, and just didn't bother with this stuff. What a blessing to find this powder keg and source of boundless energy as I slide into my elder years. I recently discovered "Let it Go or Turn it A Loose" and it made my lip curl. I caught myself snarling and throwing my shoulders around in the car, like my feet were doing some kind of double-time shimmy the way he would do it.

Soul Brother #1, a man truly before his time with Phenomenal Energy and Flare. Sure wish I could've been at one of his shows, just would've been out of this world🔥🚀

Them brothers Jammed, and they gave James the Vibes so he could feel it and move his feet with passion the way he did.
