This is because James Brown was an amazing entertainer and was one of Michael's first and most major inspirations. In many of Michael's performances you can see what kind of influence James had on him, especially in his dance moves. Both artist became friends as they got older.
James Brown, a fantastic entertainer when alive, influenced Michael a great deal, starting when Michael was a child. In many of Michael's performances, especially his early ones in the days of the Jackson 5 and before, many of his dance moves were ones that James Brown himself used such as falling to his knees etc.
He is a wonderful role model for his musical achievements. James Brown had a very unique music and dance style and has earned a standing as one of the greatest legends in music. He followed his musical aspiration with great passion and an extraordinary commitment to artistic excellence.
However he was not a perfect human being and certainly had flaws.
Michael really enjoyed watching James dance. He would get mad and throw things at the TV when the camera man would zoom in on Jame's face while he was dancing and yell things like, "Show him!" and "Let me see his feet!" He did get joked on when John Landis said, "Is James Brown here?" and Michael laughed. He really just admired the way James was about to move his feet and had such carisma.
Because James Brown was a great entertainer.

He got it from James Brown.. James was his Idol that turned him into a singer :)
While Michael hasn't talked that much about Little Richard as an influence on him, many infer that he was given the androgeny and anthemic nature of his songs. He was an influence on James Brown as well as the Beatles: two of Michael's biggest influences.
