The life of James Brown (Chadwick Boseman), the godfather of soul music , is full of legends. Especially in the changeable last century, after birth and growth in the 1930s, his loving mother cultivated and guided him with heart. Although James Brown has experienced the misfortunes of most black people and the excesses caused by his youthful and unruly personality, in the end, it is his talent and the toughness of his family that he has endured in himself. He has struggled successfully in his favorite music career, and achieved brilliant achievements that can be described as affecting generations. But the loss after success, as well as all kinds of extravagance and bad habits of the so-called upper class, also made his life have a disgraceful side.
