FUNK LEGEND RICK JAMES: 1948-2004
August 6, 2004
The creator of the hit "Super Freak" RICK JAMES has died, a Los Angeles Police Department spokesperson confirmed to ET. No details regarding his death were immediately available and the investigation is ongoing. The 56-year-old funk star was best known for his 1981 hit "Super Freak." He later fell victim to a crack cocaine addiction that led to a conviction for assaulting and holding a woman against her will. In 1998, James suffered a stroke. Just two months ago, James took the stage to receive a special ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Music Awards in Beverly Hills.

I was so looking forward to him reappearing on Chappelle's show. "I'm Rick James, Bitch" will forever be the catch phrase of my heart. RIP RJ.
