James Brown has prostate cancer
Godfather of soul James Brown has been diagnosed with prostate cancer and will undergo surgery next week.

"I have overcome a lot of things in my life. I will overcome this as well," Brown, 71, said in a statement.



Brown, best known for hits such as I Feel Good and Cold Sweat, still plans a tour of Asia and Australia next year.

The soul legend was charged with domestic abuse earlier this year after a row with his wife Tomi Rae Hynie but the allegation was resolved when he failed to contest the charge.
