  • Born Frankie Robinson in Detroit, the youngest of seven children born to Clarence and Elizabeth Robinson. He was nicknamed "Sugar Chile" by his mother. Although neither parent was a musician, Frankie began playing piano by ear at the age of two. At the age of three, he won a talent show at the Paradise Theatre in Detroit. By six, he was playing guest shots with Lionel Hampton's band and the Frankie Carle Orchestra. In 1946, he made a cameo in the Van Johnson film "No Leave, No Love" performing "Caldonia". In March 1946, Robinson performed at a gala in Washington DC for President Truman. He played four numbers including "Caldonia" during which he shouted out, "How'm I Doin', Mr President?" This became a popular catch-phrase. In 1947, he was the subject of a seven-minute film entitled "Frankie 'Sugar Chile' Robinson." In 1949, Robinson made his first recordings for the Capitol label. His first two releases were "Numbers Boogie", which made it to number four on the Billboard R&B charts, and "Caldonia" which reached number 14. Robinson toured and recorded until 1952, when he requested that he be allowed to return to school. He graduated from Northern High School at age 15. He went on to attend Olivet College in Michigan, and graduated with a degree in psychology in 1960.

      ​@mikehunt8997 it may not be the same as the 1950s but it's still exist. non black people who don't walk in the shoes of color don't see it cause it's not part of their lives. true many black people use it as an excuse to not even try and that's not an excuse. in fact I teach them that it's their obligation to do more then their grandparents did becasue they do have more avenues of freedom that their ancestors fought for. so it's a disservice to them to not use your talent or gifts today however, the road to success is still a rocky and hole filed one for black people. there are many glass doors that still are in place and many times you have to sell your soul to get them opened. this leads into the deteriorating culture that the media perpetuates. many talented black artists( Lauren Hill) leave the entertainment world when they see what goes on at the top. it's truly a different experience in the world when you are not white.

      I know a prodigy who can play it all......except boogie woogie. He was a student at the music school I used to teach at. I kept telling him to learn boogie woogie, told him to listen to Johnny Johnson but he never caught on.

    WOW! Saw and met this dude when I was a kid back in the 70's. My Dad saw him at a Pistons game and briefed my on who he was. Apparently he was very well known durin' the time of this film; my Dad spoke of him like he was some great star.

    I love that he went back to school studied psychology and lived a relatively quiet life after the success he had as a small child. Definition of a living legend and true child prodigy.

    Mr. "Sugar Chile" Robinson...I've never heard of him until now. I'm must say...I'm glad to have witnessed a piece of Black history as well as black excellence...and for a child of any race to play the piano with thier elbows...one of the coolest things I've ever seen lol. Salute to you Mr Robinson.
