LOL, man, his family couldn’t have kept this stuff in their posession!? We can’t have a James Brown museum?! Dang shame. Tell Tomi Rae to get it together and quit having tea parties with Teena Marie! I’m saying.
Fans of James Brown will have a chance to own some of the legendary soul singer’s funky stuff when Christie’s puts hundreds of items up for sale on July 17.
The auction house said on Tuesday it will sell some of his instruments, hand-written lyrics, awards and grooming artifacts among 320 lots to be offered at “The James Brown Collection,” estimated to take in about $1 million.
A leather belt with a red-and-silver rhinestone buckle reading “Sex Machine” [FIERCE! - IPS] and tooled “We Love You James, Blue Express” is seen fetching $2,000 to $3,000.
Among the highlights are Brown’s Kennedy Center Honor from 2003 ($10,000 to $15,000) and his 1986 Grammy Award for “Living in America” ($15,000 to $20,000). His jumpsuits, many priced around $5,000, are grouped with other clothing in the sale catalogue by color. (Source)
Quick!! Someone call Usher and tell him to snap up one of those jumpsuits! Maybe it can revive his career if he wears the buckle and the jumpsuit and performs in Vegas? His album dropped 67% this week. Ouch. Him wearing a jumpsuit would have made the “Moving Mountains” video THAT much more interesting. ALREADY!
I got to get my hands on that belt buckle before Norwood Young or Bobby Brown try to throw in their lot. That must be hanging on my wall before the end of this year. And how!
I don’t know about ya’ll, but I think I’mma go buckwild and blow my whole stimulus check! Just doing my part to help the economy!
