Little Richard, a rock-and-roll legend, passed away on Saturday.
We are saying our goodbyes to a rock-and-roll legend, Little Richard, who sang hits like Tutti Frutti and Lucille. He also played piano flawlessly and pioneered a music genre that lives today in the work of Nirvana, Paramore, Fall Out Boy, Black Sabbath, Senses Fail, Black Veil Brides, Bullet For My Valentine, Asking Alexandria, and other rockers.
The legend also had a sports side to him. In 1972, Richard played soccer at the prestigious Wembley Stadium. He went up against ‘Screaming Lord Sutch,’ who played the entire time with a parrot on his shoulder.
RIP, Little Richard. I dedicate this beat to you.

About Kadin McElwain
I was born in Kingston, New York, the second child of Monika Keiper and Matthew McElwain. At age two, I was diagnosed with autism, and I’m currently undergoing therapy to help me have a good life. I have multiple interests, including music and writing. I started writing seriously at the age of 13 by writing poems on Allpoetry.com, earning a nomination for Best Teen Poet. In high school, I went on to write scripts, articles, and stories. Now in college, my ultimate goal is to make the world a better place.
