Give thanks to incredible artist @sonartoriginal. Check his work out! Thanks for the inspiration with your ode/BornDay rec to the great Nina Simone. I'm also a huge fan of not only the music, voice, multiple talents....but her perspectives, and fearless nature to share with transparency, passion, and emotion. And love and care for US! She has always been my fav for those reasons plus her voice reminded me of my oldearth singing to all the grands, love you! Here's a few pieces through the years....Again HBD @ninasimone . . . . #hbd #nina #ninasimone #musicart #musicartwork #musicpaintings #musiclegends #jazzlegends #classicallegends #jazzlegend #jazzmusicians #bluesmusic #classicalmusic #herstorymaker #historymakers #musiclovers #timelessmusic #everytimeisaygoodbye #wildisthewind #solitude #jazzartwork #artistic_share #ranartone https://www.instagram.com/p/CLlPGC_H0AT/?igshid=1u78zne9mhvqe

B L A C K M U S I C H E R S T O R Y • • • Aretha Franklin “Queen of Soul” became the very first woman and first black woman to ever be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987 and she was recognised in the “Performers” category. • • • In honour of #ThrowBackThursday, we salute all iconic #blackwomeninmusic inductees who are part of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame! With black women in music currently representing 5.9% of the 323 inductees in total, we are hopeful to see continued progress for representation for underrepresented women and especially women of colour. • • • #tbt #blackwomeninmusic #icon #legendary #herstorymaker #trendsetter #intersectionalfeminism #blackgirlmagic #blackmusicherstory #rockandrollhalloffame #arethafranklin #thesupremes #bessiesmith #marainey #tinaturner #lavernbaker #dinahwashington #ettajames #ruthbrown #marthaandthevandellas #gladysknight #theshirelles #mahaliajackson #thestaplesingers #billieholiday #theronettes #donnasummer #ninasimone #sisterrosettatharpe (at London, United Kingdom)
