>caring what others think
>get called an idiot
You win by enjoying the music pleur
Man this is so sad. Charles always had the best shows, loved everyone and even at 68 was busting moves. saw him a few times and was able to meet him.
If you haven't heard anything by him check him out. there is also a really good documentary about him getting his first record deal
My heart almost skipped a beat. I thought someone important died.

>all these edgelords in the thread
F
THEY DONT SEE ME TRY
>Charles Bradley is an American funk/soul/R&B singer
Since when does Sup Forums listen to funk/soul/R&B?
Rest in peace to the Screamin Eagle of Soul
rip charlie murphy :(
RIP potential kanye feature
F
kek
Oh no! Wasn't he homeless for the longest time and then managed to get out once someone noticed him and his talent?
The World Is Going Up In Flames is a fantastic song
Yeah, there is a great documentary about him

see you on the other side brother.
lw?
Changes was a great album and I really loved it, can't believe he passed away. RIP, nobody but you.
F
Man, this guy helped me a lot with his music on the past years.
I feel you dude. i lost my brother a few years ago and his song heartaches and pain still makes me cry. Lost a great man today
I pity anyone who didn’t see him live while they had the chance.
His covers off changes and heart of gold are awesome. F

I regret it so much.
>tfw he cancelled his show in argentina last year
not that i really was into that but sucks
f
F
his shows were great tho. regardless of how passionate you were about his music, his passion and love for what he was doing was palpable. I saw him twice and both times people were crying at some point in the show
DAMN!
That sucks. I dug the soulfulness of his band. Reminds me of vintage 70s soul horn music. God damn
Sup Forums isn't one person. Most people here though are retarded and have god awful taste so..
i am glad/surprised to see how many people so far have heard of charles and appreciate his great, if not too short, career
That's the thing, I never heard about this guy until I saw him as one of the main acts along with Iggy Pop
Some stuff gets buried now
damn rip
literally who?
literally check out the links anons have posted and quit being ignorant your whole life
Go listen to changes and then talk you uncultured swine
That fucking sucks, I should've went to his concert when I had the opportunity, he's got some pretty good songs.
F
Why is it so hard, bros?
sad day for music. His honest love and warmth would have been extended to even to the most autistic and screeching Sup Forumstant here. a great man
This is really sad. I remember reading about this guy when Changes came out and was really amazed by his story. It's too bad he had to leave so soon after finally getting his talent recognized. RIP
F
really wanted another album from him, damn
STICKY
have no goddamn idea who this is
see
faggot
Rest in peace, screamin' eagle. God love and rest your soul. This hits me hard on a personal level
so he was a reincarnation of James Brown
he used to be a james brown impersonator. But his greatness wasn't in hiding that influence, but in his vocal talent and personal story that he used in his own music.
fucking hell this guy was great
GOAT among sheep
Remember watching this show, put all the indie whyte folk in their place.
His outfits were always sexy as fuck. If i were a 60 yo black nan, i would smash
Who dis?
youtu.be
>tfw you found out about him from american dad
Charles Bradley is such a great talent and I am so sad I never got to see him live.
These two songs right here are two of my favorite covers.
This song is probably my favorite song by him though. RIP Charles Bradley.
why do all old black men have this expression
THIS GUY? NOOO NOT THIS GUY!!!!!
Why him why so soon why not me instead why why can life be so unknown yet still be so fixed why must we be here then gone why why does this happen to us
SHIT
Yeah i loved him.
RIP
cause they seent a lotta shit junior
Since 2006?
get into his stuff now and pretend you always liked it just like everyone else
You win by listening to him, regardless if its after he died. Any recognition this man gets is great
This dude took a 5 min intermission at a show and came back dressed like rick flair. Fucking incredible. RIP
What the Fuck, why did this have to happen
>no sticky for this legend that battles cancer twice
fuck 12
HAH I already had him in my library before he died, that makes me the victor!
This is good, sorry he had such a hard time.
WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
IT IS SO HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD
Watch this shit and I will send you 5 bucks if you don’t get feels
Patricians listen to everything. Expand your horizons, pleb.
>life is about winning
fuck you; life is about learning
if you don't know who he is, you can learn
which is the best thing
>Edgy faggot singer of shit band commits sudoku and gets a sticky
>Talented musician and singer dies of natural causes and doesn't get sticky
This board sucks.
>patricians are dilettantes
Not true.
Patricians APPRECIATE everything but only deeply explore their select styles, rather than being broad and watered down in their taste.
Stickies are for concentrating crossboarders rather than having them spread across an entire board making multiple threads when something big like that happens.
Everyone who knows Charles is already here.
Crossboarders are dilettantes.
>Patricians APPRECIATE everything but only deeply explore their select styles
Load of shit. True patricians appreciate and explore everything because that's what it means to love and spend time on music. People who can name 200 post-punk bands are not patricians.
>I can't get into all these genres, that means no one can
That's because post-punk is incredibly limited in it quality, all of rock music actually
See, a statement like that automatically disqualifies you from patricianhood. Disregarding an entire genre, especially one as wide and diverse as rock is definitively plebeian. Keep lurking though, you'll get there.
>tfw I like soul music but hadn't heard of this guy because he didn't record in the 60's/70's
Better late then never
He basically sounds straight out of that era. Check him out
When did I disregard it
I said it's limited in quality, not that there are no outstanding rock albums.
There's hundreds, but that's nothing when considering how vast the genre is.
You can make such a tepid criticism of literally every genre ever. One day you'll understand being a patrician doesn't mean shitting on music or dividing into camps of good or bad, that is low level thinking reserved for plebs. Patricians love music intensely and want as much music they might like as possible. People on Sup Forums have tricked themselves into thinking being a patrician means shitting on music they don't like, and segregating themselves in their favorite genres. It's in fact the opposite.

this is one of the best live performances he has given
I tend not to bother with revival scenes because it tends to feel so self-aware, if that makes any sense. But I might look at him.
It's not a revival, the dude was 68. He lived through that era and brought it with him. Most people would just be concerned about the music going into their ears, rather than the image they have in their mind.
I said nowhere you cannot enjoy and love music outside of your preferences, some of my favourite albums are nowhere near jazz or electronic.
It's natural to harbour preferences, the notion that you should consume as much music as possible from everywhere is ridiculous, it leads to producing nothing.
There's not enough time in a lifetime to do so and in the end you're a homogenized mishmash of ideas with nothing in particular to say about anything.
>There's not enough time in a lifetime to do so and in the end you're a homogenized mishmash of ideas with nothing in particular to say about anything.
Just because you're incapable of discussing several different genres in depth doesn't mean patricians aren't.
It's not being incapable, it's not being interested in doing so.
It's like studying world history and never finding a period you're interested in, you'd have a few things to discuss about a lot and never be able to have endless deep discussion about something in particular.
