Little Richard, a giant in the early stages of Rock ‘n’ Roll and beyond, has died.
Richard had enormous influence over the genre, with insanely popular hits like the fantastically frenetic, “Tutti-Frutti” and “Long Tall Sally.” The Beatles have credited Richard as being inspirational to the Fab Four.
Richard’s bass guitarist, Charles Glenn, tells TMZ … Richard had been sick for 2 months. He died at his Tennessee home, surrounded by his brother, sister and son. Glenn says he spoke with Richard March 27 and the singer asked him to come over and visit, but he couldn’t because of the pandemic. Glenn says Richard was like a father to him. Richard would sometimes tell him, “Not to take anything away from your dad, but you’re my son.”
Richard was born Richard Wayne Penniman in 1932. Ironically, he was born in a depression and died in what feels like a depression.
He dropped his career to attend Divinity Collage only to be kicked out when he exposes his Johnson to other students. He clearly had homosexual episodes.
Now it’s compulsory? lol Hey, mebbe it’s what this Covid is all about? ‘Get in line please, and roll up your shirt sleeve - say goodbye to heterosexuality.’??
I agree with you. It is only when they want to teach my children that the queer lifestyle is normal or ask for a privilege. Like Muslims and women chauvinist they are a vocal minority. I respect their right to privacy.
Why is it when someone dies, people have to say negative things about them. Who didn’t know he was gay. The same things were said about Freddie Mercury when he died.
What does this say about the character of these people???
