Living In America
by Filippo Fiumani
Later in James Brown’s career, it’s fair to say he had lived a big life and seen a lot. The pressures of staying on top must have gotten to him because Brown made some life decisions that suggest he had lost his focus. The 1985 single “Living In America” was Brown’s first Top 40 hit in ten years on the US pop charts, and it would also be his last. The song was written by Dan Hartman and Charlie Midnight, but there is little doubt it wouldn’t have been a hit without James Brown. Who can forget his performance in Rocky IV as Apollo Creed enters the ring? Artist Filippo Fiumani is from Italy and has never lived in America, but his style is heavily influenced by the American, skate, surf, punk scene. His homage to “Living In America” reads like a personal tribute to a chapter in American culture that influenced his creative world view. Like a funk-infused Basquiat dream, the scene explodes with vibrant color and expressionistic characters.
