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.

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.
