New York Post-Former Governor David Paterson “Of the three alternatives – Andrew, Eric, Curtis – Cuomo has the best chance to win,” Paterson told The Post. I want to see Cuomo do it. I think he has a good shot,” the Democrat said of his successor.”
10-year-old Victory Blinker who set the Guinness World Record for the youngest opera singer in the world sings Mozart’s 'Der Holle Rache,’ considered one of the most difficult arias to sing.
@PedroPadre38995@AfricanArchives why are yall refuting common knowledge- why (intellectually) die on that hill? Even white legends (Mick Jagger most prominently) have stated that their music was a by product of blacks and blacks being blackballed....
@AfricanArchives Are you implying that Elvis Presley stole the song from her, because two guys wrote the song. 500 bucks back then was equivalent to 6,000 bucks now. Not a great payday but certainly not a ripoff.
Big Mama Thornton performing "Hound Dog". She released the song first in 1953 before Elvis Presley (1956), his biggest worldwide rock and roll hit record.
Thornton was a blues singer who helped shape the sound of Rock&Roll. She released the song “Hound Dog” in 1953 and it sold two million records and went #1 on the R&B charts.
Unfortunately Thornton only received about $500 from those profits.
@PedroPadre38995@AfricanArchives Jerry Lieber and Mike stoller wrote the song at the request of bandleader, Johnny Otis, and music mogul Don Robey. They owned the publishing. Don Robey was the inspiration for “ Red “, in the movie, The Five Heartbeats.
@Dani_Knope@Hewhothrowsthi2@AfricanArchives hes offended by common knowledge: that their hero was a fraud who only became known via the racism preventing black artists from getting their music on the radio
@kmatz174@CarverdeMedici@AB84 i disagree with the last part of that statemment- sanders was top 3 in the nation and slated to go in the 1st round by almost everyone prior to that draft and every one knew it- hence the outrage
@585WayUpTop@CarverdeMedici@AB84 I wouldn’t say Eli was cocky the way Shadeur is but I assume you’re referring to Eli not wanting to play for SD to which I’d say Eli was the consensus QB1 & 1st overall pick in the draft Shadeur was not a 1st rd pick & not as good as he thought he was
@CarverdeMedici@AB84 Truth will never be hate- i dont hate the manning brothers- i actually think theyre great players i was referencing the disparity in the leagues treatment toward the Sanders family in comparison
@585WayUpTop@AB84 Hatin on Peyton is like hating Jesus. And I don’t just mean the white Joel Osteen Jesus, but like the literal brown mf that Uprooted the Roman Empire. Hatin Peyton is some Pontius Pilate shit.
