JAMES BROWN'S ‘LEGACY' — IN HIS OWN WORDS!
National Enquirer
|December 28, 2020
Secretly Pledged his soul - and millions - to raise up poor kids!
-
THE National ENQUIRER has exclusively obtained a never before-heard audio recording of iconic soul singer James Brown’s wish to leave his $100 million fortune to educate poor children!
In the garbled 1999 recording, the singer — who died suddenly at age 73 on Dec. 25, 2006, of congestive heart failure and pneumonia — called the creation of his I Feel Good foundation his lasting “legacy.”
“Let me just say this, my intention is not just for Black kids but for poor children and we are not going to limit the fund because of skin color,” the “Hot Pants” singer stated in front of witnesses.
