Prince was a radical pioneer for sure, but the freedom with which he expresses himself was built upon the courage and confidence of THIS man. We won’t even talk about the way Little Richard was flat out copied with no credit by an entire genre of white artists. In his own words: “When I started singing rock & roll, I sang it a long time before I presented it to the public, because I was afraid they wouldn’t like it. I had never heard nobody do it, and I was scared. I really feel from the bottom of my heart that I am the inventor. If there was somebody else, I didn’t know than, didn’t hear them, haven’t heard them. Not even to this day. So I say I’m the architect. I am the innovator. I am the originator. I am the emancipator. I am the architect of rock ‘n’ roll!” — Little Richard RIP TO THE ARCHITECT. #blackmensmile #littlerichard #rocknroll #rip #blackmusic https://www.instagram.com/p/B__TKwqASAq/?igshid=uynzekyh3mvk
