The fact that he didn't have a heart full of absolute hate... Boggles my mind...
The people telling him not to hate would blow up the world if they were in his position...
EXACTLY. Imagine you helped literally create ROCK AND ROLL you’re the prototype and you never get the shine or praise or awarded for it??? He should walk into any restaurant for free. Get a new car every damn year he shouldn’t even have to spend money you know how much rock music has saved people throughout the world??!!
Because he acted out of love. To quote the great Robert Hunter. Without love in the dream it'll never come true
@@TBoneMcGriddle shut the hell up. If white people were treated one fraction as badly as black Americans...you would blow up the whole earth.
What hypocrites you are...
Walk out so elegant
Rock is him!!!!
Little Richard told no lies, I am glad the audience gave him a standing ovation. All he said was true
yeah he meant that and the audience ageed.
That was better than the award the crowd
Crowd full of Grammy voters standing up and applauding but not voting to give him an award
I think they finally gave him a Lifetime Achievement Grammy well before he passed. But every word that he said here was true...before Elvis or the Beatles...Little Richard was there.
And Little Richard was their idol!
They all " took all his outward
Style. He was the frontman, Doe you see. The quality of the movie Bohemian Rapsity? Freddie played the piano standing up. As he was infected with Aids, he had to sit down. Him too took from Richard, a Black man can't be the originator of anything. Especially as big as this!
Why isn't this trending?!? I just saw this and omg this has to be one of the top 5 iconic moments of music history!
Little Richard read them ALL. Y'all did'nt give me no grammies. I fell OUT when he said that and it was the truth!! RIP Richard
Facts
He got a MERIT
Amen. It was the truth.
Little Richard and paul mooney always spoke the truth!
Yes he did, and rightfully so!! He said “I AM THE ARCHITECT OF ROCK & ROLL”!! The original KING/QUEEN.. shut up!!🤣🤣👍🏽
1:45 "I am the Architect of Rock and Roll"
Sean Warren 1:46
The actual Architect of Rock’n Roll having to speak the cold truth with a smile on his face. Should have gave this man a lifetime achievement Grammy award. The man is your favorite artist-favorite artist-favorite artist.
Believe he was , thee Or among initial R&R Hall of Famers inducted !
I believe they did in 1997
It wasn't long after they did. It was a disgrace they way they overlooked a living legend and I hate all the BS race baiting world we live in. But this was some bullshit, especially when black culture gave us argusble ebery genre of music. Somethings are worth addressing and other times .. it's basically .. when you're a hammer everything is a nail.
I get you, but the architect of rock and roll was sister Rosetta Tharpe.
No song defines the 50s like long tall Sally
I died when he said “and the winner is... still me”
🌻❤️👑
😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂
😂😂😂😂
Me to😂😂😂
R.I.P. to the architect of Rock n Roll Little Richard 1932 - 2020 🙏🏾
👑❤️❤️🙌🏿🌻⭐👑
Little Richard yells from heaven to say, "Shut up!"
That’s was funny doesn’t he make you laugh 😆 😂😆😆😆@@ritemolawbks8012
🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
" He cant get that tho"- lil Richard was hilarious
This is the best Grammy speech ever and he was just announcing the winner. 😂
Am I the only one who watched this so many times???
No ....you are not ..
But have you watched rrhof Award to Otis Redding????? 10 times
No you’re not I watch this all the time especially when I’m down and need a laugh
@user-it1et3cr2k me to.. many times
"Shut up" was his all time line!
We know now "shut up".!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
No hesitation. He looked at that man and knew that there was no way in hell that schmuck gets to tell Little Richard what to do
He rude like that.
@@samlibuttiyep he was being rude in his own funny way. And who can blame him. He influenced every last one of the so called greats (white and black) and never got a single ounce of credit for it until recently. It's slowly becoming acknowledged that he was the BIGGEST influence in the creation of rock n roll
Rest in Peace Little Richard. Thank you for everything.
For those who are wondering who the guy is standing next to Little Richard, that's David Johansen. The lead singer of the New York Dolls.
Richard was spitting straight facts he did start that hairstyle and a lot of other things he didn’t get credit for I’m glad he started speaking out later years and making people respect his labor and efforts in music
No Little Richard didn't have that hairstyle until 1985
I remember watching this with my sister the night it aired. We SCREAMED about it for months. About 12 years ago, I was sitting at the bus stop waiting for the MTA to come my way. It was on a corner in a very busy section of town, so there was a stop light. A black towncar was slowing just ahead so it could stop for the red light. Upon stopping, the rear passenger window went down, and out stretched an arm with an autographed headshot of Little Richard. I looked at the person handing it to me, and it was him!!!! I said my thank you's, to which he replied "You are very welcome, baby! WOOOOOO!!!!!" And there I stood, picture in hand, watching that towncar roll away, taking within it the most confusing brush with insanity that I'll EVER have the pleasure of being part of.
Sounds like a dream... what a great story!
@@slimtee2 It. Was. AWESOME!
Very cool. Well written also
whatever if true or not is not for me to say anything it was a great moment I imagen! sh!t happens
how did he even know to give it to you… fake lol.
Before ODB shut the Grammys down, it was Lil Richard.
*Little Richard
He claimed what they wouldn't give him, what was HIS. He refused to shrink.
I love that he commanded the respect he felt was due, but without disrespecting the audience. He did it with this charm that only few people can do.
No lies were told! loved him RIP Richard
I love little Richard and good for him for speaking up
He gave zero f's but never came off arrogant or narcissistic. So much personality
This NEVER gets old! Not one lie was told!
By far the greatest impromptu live performances in the history of awards ceremony goes to Little Richard. He stole the show. Amazing.
This gets me emotional in so many ways.
1. The 80s -- I know who all of them are. The fact that they were nominated for a Grammy is awesome.
2. Jody Watley looks great here.
3. Little Richard, most of all. It really made me emotional. We truly lost a great one today. May he rest in peace.
You wrote exactly what I felt. Thank you.
You know swing out sister?
You knew the Cutting Crew?
You knew Poindexter and Terence Trent D'arby, too? I was born in the 80s and have only heard of maybe three of these songs nominated.
The part I hate is that she beat Janet Jackson and wasn't even a new artist.
Little Richard is the most talented in the room God bless him RIP
Jody has tearful joy in her!!
The Architect of Rock - Rest in Power ✝️🙏🏾🛐🕊️🎼🎶🎵🎹 12/5/1932 - 5/9/2020
I love Buster Poindexter's visible discomfort. Make him suffer Richard 😂
I'm glad you clarified who that was. I was like who is this nobody barking commands at a music legend?
When Little Richard says “GOOD MORNIN” = CHECK YO SELF!
LoL
😂
The read of life!
"The winner really is me!" 🤣🤣🤣
Little Richard is the King of Rock & Roll
He's such a legend that his heyday predated the Grammys. But I love that he had pride enough to demand his flowers. ❤️
Little Richard should have won a Grammy award for sure. RIP Little Richard.
David Abbruzzi it’s crazy that he didn’t.
@@christianmedina2793 Little Richard should have won a Grammy after a career like he had for sure.
Lifetime achievement if anything...
I got to see Little Richard perform in San Diego in '94, and I will never forget it. He was the originator, the creator, and the innovator 🤩🤩🤩. RIP also Chuck Berry, Ray Charles, Fats Domino, and B.B. King.
I love Richard!!! And my god that was quite a nomination lineup.
Don’t use the name God in vain.
I remember seeing this when it aired live. I was 9 years old. Left an impression on me that I remember till this day.
I love Little Richard and especially how he loved God and all of mankind. Rest in peace brother Richard. May you reign with the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen, Amen, and Amen.
That was back from the era of Michael Jackson's fans getting carried out on stretchers.
Yep and Bobby Brown blowing up 🆙 with don’t be cruel when leaving new Edition
Dam straight. He deserves it. True legend. RIP
Happy 65th birthday, Jody!!
No way, she is 65? Wow!!! She still looks amazing!!
Love and Respect Little Richard
The architect and originator of rock and roll !!
We will miss you 💔❤️❣️
sure we do
Beauty inside and out. That speech was perfect. And so was Jody.
Little Richard should have been a comedian! I bet he was the life of every party, my god that was so funny! Then Jody came on and made me cry.
He was so funny! Lmao 🤣🤣😂😂 Not my first time seeing this clip.. but I laugh everytime!! "And the winner is.. ME!" 🤣🤣😭 #RIPLittleRichard ♥️
I saw that in real time!! Privileged to be born in 1962..@ MissKim83
I was born in 83, too. We'll be forever young.
@@traceylennon1204 I love the 60s. 🥰 Music, fashion, hairstyles. I wish I could literally travel back in time.
The Innovator of Rock and Roll 🎸Rest In Peace Little Richard 🙏🏿💙🎙️🎹🎶🕊️
Little Richard deserved this award and many many others. He was one of the best. ♥️🙏✝️
Perhaps it was the genre of music he was a part of, but WE, his black people didn't give this man the respect he was due.
Then WE all need to respect that all music comes from us?
@@SeanWarren ....most definitely!
you mean the genre he created, you cant be a part of something thats completely dependent on your existence, Little Richard is Rock and Roll
The courage this man had even kings today can't find. RIP King Little Richard.
Don't worry Richard, it seems awards don't mean as much as lasting music. The winner here is the only name of all the nominees I haven't heard of. Your music will outlive their's all
Glad that Lil Richard got his due appreciation like this. He is an architect of Rock and Roll
If I had won I would have given that Grammy to little Richard
I remember watching this on TV when it first came on, and I'll never forget Little Richard saying "ME".
Rest in Peace, the Architect of Rock n Roll.
This is the perfect example of how to rise above those who tell you that you cannot succeed! To be told you would never make it on your own and then this happens after hard work and determination are combined.
You will always be my BEST NEW ARTIST !!!🌹
Little Richard is one of the fathers of modern music. How different would music be without this guy?
LITTLE RICHARD WAS ONE OF A KIND! A TRUE LEGEND OF ROCK AND ROLL! HE DID DEFINITELY DESERVE SO MANY ACCOLADES THAT SADLY HE WAS NEVER GIVEN. BUT IN A 🌎 OF SO, SO MANY ARTIST'S AND SINGER'S LITTLE RICHARD WILL ALWAY'S SHINE, GLISTEN AND GLITTER ABOVE THE REST! R.I.P. ❤ 👼 📿 🌹 🌼 🌈 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊🕊 🕊 🕊🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊 🕊
R.I.P. Little Richard 😢😭
I had forgotten who else was in the BNA category with Jody. That was really tough competition that year, especially with Terence Trent Darby. He had mega hits like "Wishing Well" and "Sign my Name" that year. Jody had back to back hits with "I'm Looking For A New Love", "Don't You Want Me", Some Kind of Lover", and "Most of All". That was a BIG win for Miss Jody!
...but! ...a VERY controversial win; Richard Marx was THE new Artist (in 1987), that had that award with his NAME on it....But, he was disqualified, because he wrote a tune for Kenny Roger's 1984 LP, and the Grammy committee said he wasn't "new', to be a BNA..... (cont.)
...Richard was FUR-I-OUS, and didn't go to ANY Grammy ceremonies.....while Jody won, even though she was in Shalamar since 1977, and, released 8 Albums with them! ...Richard DID get a Grammy, when he wrote "Dance With My Father" for Luther Vandross in 2003, and attended the Grammy's, in honor of Luther, when he had his stroke....
Terence Trent D’arby gave an amazing performance on the Grammys that night. I was working at a record store at the time this aired and his music sold like crazy the following days and weeks afterward.
When he said “ the winner really is me “ and notion to scream “like a WYT woman “, it’s cause he saw him in the winner! He was proud
I can't imagine what it was like standing there as the originator never having received shit and then have to award one of those tiny acts.
That's the industry. The most average basic singers get all the recognition and awards. And the really talented ones get shunned, doesn't make any sense.
Fun fact: Jody had a little known duet with George Michael called "Learn to say no". This was during the Faith era and she commented three words "what a voice!" Yes, we knew then and only got more and more blessed through the decade.
RIP, Little Richard you gave the world some wonderful music that will last to the end of time.
From Soul Train dancer to Pop/R&B Queen - and people in this thread say they've never heard of Jody?!? Get a clue! 💯
It blows my mind unless these are really young people.
@@user-tq3rr8vy2w Though I still haven't seen her Playboy layout from '98.😄
@@SeanWarren Must be, Bruh 💯
@@brotha_tree WHAT!!! I had no idea.
@@SeanWarren Had to wait for the wife to fall asleep. LOL 😆
Little Richard will always be the winner to me. Love you!!!
I just saw this clip last night watching the Little Richard documentary on bbc2! It's probably the best rant in music history.
What a talent! What an incredible artist, and a fabulous back catalogue of incredible songs.
R.I.P LITTLE RICHARD.
She deserved this. I love you Jody Watley. been following and listening to you since the 70's days of Shalamar. Always knew you would make it.
I would have voted for D'Arby. Michael Jackson ended his career out of fear.
She was NOT a new artist. She was a notable member of Shalamar. Her winning was akin to Lionel Richie qualifying as a new artist after leaving The Commodores. TTD should’ve won.
I don't get Jody no offense but that's a basic voice. I get it if she was a Betty Wright or Whitney, but she's comparable to Janet Jackson. How she won Grammy and Little Richard never did is astonishing 🤷🏿♀️.
Absolutely fukkin Brilliant! A standing ovation and they drag him off the stage!! Long live the Queen of Rock and roll!!
the Queen of Rock n Roll is Tina Turner. Little Richard wasn't a female.
@@Sttephy30 I get what you mean but Little Richard actually described himself as the Queen of Rock and Roll, obviously a reference to his sexuality and status as a true original
They robbed this man like crazy!!!!!
🙏💜🙏 " Legend " 🙏💜🙏
I really wish little Richard received his flower while he was with us 😞♥️🙏😷
The irony is that in just two years from the time of this broadcast none of the artists in the video clip except Little Richard mattered at all.
thegreatreverendx I wouldn’t say that. I still listen to Jody Watley and Terence D Arby. But #riplittlerichard #legend
@@christianmedina2793 TTD... I wore that first album OUT back in the day, but most of it feels dated to me now.
It's not that I think I was foolish to listen to it so much then, not at all, but I think that some music (like that album) is so tied to the faddish musical trends of their moment that what seemed fresh and innovative at the time now seems a bit gimmicky and cheesy.
I don't feel the same way when I listen to (for example) Prince from that era... I can't articulate what the difference is, but it's there.
All of those artists songs are still played in movies and on the radio. So I wouldn't say they didn't matter...just none of them were legends. Few are.
Jody watley
@@christianmedina2793 Jody Watley is blessed but she didn't create a genre. I'm just saying.
Thank you for that post, brought tears of joy to my eyes and soul. This was probably the last Grammy's I watched because after Little Richard shut it down and received that standing ovation there was nothing else more wonderful to see from the originator RIP with a A wop bop a loo bop a lop bam bom!
I just cried 💜💜💜 This is back when award shows meant something to the fans!!! 🔥🔥JODI WATLEY🔥🔥 OMG I STILL LOVE YOU!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🏆 I watched this LIVE when it aired back in the day day! 🤘🏽 Thank You for the memories! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽🔥🔥🔥
Have you seen my other content?
I love you Jody! You were always my favorite in Shalamar and favorite solo artist!!!! 🥰
Thanks so much!
@@jodywatley thank you for the music. I remember watching the Grammys on television when you won best new artiste. I was in high school and still a big fan of yours to this day. My eyes were filled with tears after watching this. I cant believe there were folks who never believed in you back then. You certainly showed em who's boss
Nahh Howard Hewitt!! @ thefirsttaste314
I will say..Madonna didn't like it one bit!! @Kevin Jackson
Tracey Lennon is that true? Was it because Madonna didn’t get the Best New Artist Grammy? I mean she got so much more though. But I believe it.
"And you laugh at my brother Little Richard
When he says you ain't gave him nothing!!!": Prince on the song Jughead.
Prince knew the Secrets and all the Deals
LOVE THAT SONG!!!
"Jughead...gettin funky in the house tonight doing the Jughead...
@j w with tears underneath
Rest In Peace Legend. Thank you for everything.
Now that how you throw shade and read people at the same time!!!!
He spoke how he felt and feel rip
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ !!!!!... and more ❤❤❤❤
😂I ❤ me some Little Richie. This is Golden, he truly was d architect of Rock n Roll.
I remember this! Rest in Peace.
Jody Watley deserved it.
Terence trent should of
snatch grabb jr hell no it’s either cutting crew or Jody watley
@@Travel901z two hits and faded into oblivion. Jody Watley was around a lot longer.
What a memorable time. If you look carefully (at 1.58), Michael Jackson was in the audience that year and he stood up along with everyone. Even he had to pay his respect. RIP to not just the architect of rock n roll, but the king of it all.
You can see Prince stand up and clap too. He's on the right hand side in the third row with the bright blue suit on at 1:50
@@marie-uk3xk Yup your right. What a hell of a time!
Both Prince and MJ BETTA HAD stood up! Richard walked so they could slide across the stage! MJ paid his respects by giving Richard Penniman back his catalog for free too though! And Little Richard had his bible ready for Prince Nelson at the Purple Rain premiere!
Where was MJ???
He's way too iconic for this world
Whenever I think of Little Richard, i think of this. He should've won an Emmy for this. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wow I actually loved that song by Swing Out Sister.
Everybody keeps saying TTD should have won.. Jody had a much more successful career than TTD
icecoldbruh more successful doesn't equal more talented.. and I liked them both.
Who's TTD..spell it out like they did in the 80's!! @ icecoldbruh
@foot bru uve never heard of jody watley? What type of music do u listen too? Precursor if beyonce she is
That has nothing to do with music or talent..that is just good marketing...example? Justin Bieber...Britney Spears..etc etc.
He didn't win because he's british. Thats my opinion. But it was a really hard line up nominees. When people have real talent.
I remember seeing this as a teen. Still funny! RiP L.R.
I love how happy he got when he saw the winner - I caught the joke and knew it was her when he said “it really is me”😂🤣 talk about a true inside joke 😅😂
1:58 Probably the only shot with Little Richard, Michael Jackson, and Prince in the same frame!😱 Michael is on the front row directly in front of the tip of the stage wear a dark red blazer and shiny metal boots. Prince on the second row further to the right wearing his teal and black “Lovesexy” outfit. Pause and zoom.
P.S. Michael was visibly hurt when he walked away empty handed that night and hopefully Richard’s rant kinda put everything in perspective for him seeing how much he accomplished vs what they refuse to acknowledge in Richard.
Yes, I think it's the only footage available that we can see MJ and Prince "together",
Thank u for posting. I had to see this again today.
Lil richard was real tho r.i.p
Little Richard, Prince, and, Michael Jackson in the same room. Wow.
Little Richard was right he was the architecture I love rock and roll. The originator when it came to performing live on stage. He created a new sound. Yes I'm many of us black kids back then we'll see him at the chitlin circuit and trust and believe me quite a few of the white kids would come to the chitlin circuit to see him perform.
Richard should’ve had a lifetime Grammy
Little Richard went beast mode! That man is the winner! I'm not all too familiar with him but im sure I've heard his influence from my lovely Elvis down to today. The Grammys can shove it up each other's you know what. Congratulations Ms. Whatley.
My mom told me about this and I was laughing my behind off when I watched this. RIP Little RIchard
The DIFFERENCE BETWERN THEN & NOW IS THEY WEAR CLOTHS THAT DOESNT LOOK SLU TTY AND AND THE MUSIC IS THIER OWN CRRATION NO LYPSINC AND NO AUTO TUNES.. JUST PURE TALENTED PEOPLE WHO MAKES GREAT AND UNFORGETTABLE MUSIC THAT STILL PLAYS TO THIS DAY.....
He read them and threw shade at them like a boss the real king of rock n roll
Standing Ovation Says it All!
I watched that. He went in on everybody.
Look at them Loving him ripping Buster for imitating his early look, and *Reading them all for Filth!*
