Page "James Brown" Paragraph 36

After his stint in prison during the late 1980s, Brown returned with the album, Love Overdue, in 1991, which included the single, "( So Tired Of Standing Still We Got To ) Move On ", which peaked at # 48 on the R & B chart.

He also released the four-CD box set, Star Time, featuring nearly all of Brown's hit recordings.

Brown's release from prison also sparked Brown's former record labels to reissue the musician's albums on CD, featuring additional singles and commentary by experts on Brown's music.

That same year, Brown guest appeared on rapper MC Hammer's video for " Too Legit to Quit ".

Hammer had been noted, alongside Big Daddy Kane, for bringing Brown's unique stage shows and their own energetic dance moves to the hip-hop generation, with both Hammer and Kane listing Brown as their idol.

Both musicians also sampled Brown's work, with Hammer having sampled the rhythms from " Super Bad " for his song, " Here Comes the Hammer ", from his best-selling work, Please Hammer, Don't Hurt ' Em.

Before the year was over, Brown, who had immediately returned to work with his band following his release, organized a pay-per-view concert following a show at Los Angeles ' Wiltern Theatre, that was well received.
