Otherwise known as the Mother of Hip Hop. Listening to her music and seeing her earlier image you might never had known that. But it's true. She was a founder and CEO of Sugar Hill records. Fascinating stuff.
How Gorgeous is she in this clip? I don't have this in my playlist but I do really enjoy this performance so I thought I would share. So talented! You would never guess she was a producer of the "Rapper's Delight" or "The Message" (Grandmaster Flash)
Then a few decades later we have Pillow Talk. A bit of a risqué song at the time. Not so much today. I can't listen to this record without thinking of Erykah Badu. It really feels like her whole style was born from this song.
The stuff of legends....
