Overview

Minnie Riperton's ethereal aura and five-octave vocal range enthralled the globe. More than simply a singer, Minnie was a musical pioneer, a devoted mother, and a courageous individual who transformed personal sorrow into creative success. She is most known for her timeless hit song, "Lovin' You." This book provides a moving look at her musical development and enduring cultural influence, following her journey from Chicago's music scene to Motown and beyond.

Discover how Minnie influenced singers from Mariah Carey to Ariana Grande, her solo career under Stevie Wonder's tutelage, and her breakthrough work with Rotary Connection. Discover how, prior to her tragic death at age 31, she utilized her position to raise awareness of cancer, bravely confronted a fatal disease, and balanced celebrity with family.

For lovers of soul music, classic R&B, and strong female musicians, this book is an ode to Minnie's brilliance and energy.
