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.

Dear White People,
Some of y'all really need to hear this message! Maybe it's best heard coming from someone who looks like you! "I will continue to commend White people who aren't afraid of the truth" #racism#BlackTwitter#WhiteTwitter#Unity#Woke
People in Atlanta received a letter from the IRS stating they had to verify their identity in person to receive their refund.
