I’m only 23. But every time I heard little Richard and woke up to little Richard or Blues music period. I always knew that if I woke up to this music that I would have to spend the day cleaning. But listening to Blues especially Little rIchard made cleaning go by faster and made it more fun.

My fav genre of music is Hiphop and rock music.

But my 3rd fav music is BLUES music. Especially 50’s-60’s Blues, like little Richard. little Richard has always been one of my top 3 fav Blues singers of all time.

And Hiphop originated from blues music.

If you listen carefully Little Richard has a little bit of a Hiphop vibe, especially this song.
