Jamie Foxx did a phenomenal job at playing the great Ray Charles! Rip,Mr Charles!

Suddenly I started to ballroom dance his song Hit The Road Jack

"She knows a womans place is right there in her home" Hhhhmmmm... Is something wrong here? Today, maybe - but not then Still, the song is a masterpiece

Jamie Foxx samples Ray Charles Jamie Foxx plays Ray Charles in a movie What's next?

Who else loves this part? 2:23

Why do I keep expecting him to say “Oh she’s a golddigger”?

Ray Charles was sure ahead of his time... singing about financially independent but loyal and giving women

Actually Kanye didn't sample Ray. Jamie Fox actually sung Rays part in goldigger. I though he did a phenomenal job, you can't tell the difference.

So Ray Charles was being pampered like a King while Kanye was simping? Sounds about right.
