"For Goodness Sakes, Look at Those Cakes" is a song written and performed byJames Brown. Released as an edited two-partsingle in 1978, it charted #52R&B in 1979.[1][2] A full-length version appears on the albumTake a Look at Those Cakes. Brown talks loudly and clearly in rhyme with only brief singing involved, this track being in part a precursor to the hip hop style which was yet to mount on record in a few years time.Robert Christgau described the song as "a great throwaway--an eleven-minute rumination on ass-watching, including genuinely tasteless suggestions thatRay Charles andStevie Wonder join the fun."[3]
