James Brown's family has marked the late Godfather Of Soul's 74th birthday with an attack on the music industry.

Family and friends of the late soul singer James Brown have used what would have been his 74th birthday to protest over derogatory language in music.

Singer James Brown’s body was placed in a crypt today at the home of one of the soul singer’s daughters, though it is not likely to be his final resting place.

Godfather of Soul James Brown is being sued for a million dollars by his daughters who claim they co-wrote 25 of his songs when they were children.
