Sister Rosetta Tharpe is credited as the Godmother of Rock ‘N’ Roll. Before Elvis, Johnny Cash or Little Richard, there was Sister Tharpe- A Black woman who forged her own sound in a male dominated industry.

She does not get the credit she deserves.

—Sister Rosetta Tharpe (March 20, 1915 – October 9, 1973) was an innovative gospel singer widely recognized today as the godmother of rock and roll.

Tharpe is the first known artist not only to use an electric guitar in gospel music but to give the instrument a melodic role as important as the voice’s role.

During her musical bridges, Tharpe would give free reign to her formidable guitar playing talent, unfolding soaring melodic lines puncuated by deep chordal rips and the occasional jump and leg pump; in essence developing musical tropes in the 1930s that would later be adopted by rock and roll legends Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, Little Richard, and Johnny Cash.
Tharpe’s innovation was not always well-received, with traditionalists regularly criticizing and devaluing her innovation.

Despite these attempts to derail her career or persuade her to adopt traditional approaches to gospel music, Tharpe remained deeply rooted in her religious beliefs and values and used her unique musical style to bring gospel music to audiences who would never have otherwise listened to it. Tharpe’s contribution to the development of the rock and roll idiom was finally recognized in 2018, when she was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

"It is time that other peoples in America besides white males run for the highest office of this land." This was Shirley Chisholm, the first Black woman to run for president in 1972. ❤️🖤💚

What does it really mean to have a good luck charm… some may say it’s not luck but I beg to differ because it’s open to one’s interpretation when I think about Zac and Fatima and their love story this song is fitting but let’s change the good luck charm phrase to the one who changed my life for the better. The love that Zac has for Fatima is definitely out of this world and the way she supports him truly shows us why he loves her so. To see Zac go from riding a bike to riding in a truck within hours to what he has now speaks volumes on so many levels…. It surely does show us that when you are intentional all things are able to change for the better even if it seems like it happened over night. Love has no time limit … love #Zatima
