Little Richard was a really undervalued artist. I mean he was big in the fifties, but it's kind of like as soon as he became not very cool anymore, he was dropped like a hot potato. But he was a musician for the ages when you think about it. Very iconic. He died at the beginning of the Covid era but I feel like it wasn't given much attention.
My favorite song of his is Tutti Frutti.
Speaking of this type of music, I also really enjoy "Reet Petite" by Jackie Wilson.
Fun fact, although "reet petite" means "fantastic" in old school Jazz lingo, "reet" is also Dutch slang for "ass." So when you say "Reet petite" it's sort of like you're saying "little ass" in the Netherlands. Not very interesting I guess, but at least you learned something.
