Good Golly Miss Molly!! Without Little Richard Rock n' Roll would have been very different. Richard Wayne Penniman got his nickname Lil' Richard at an early age because of his small frame. By the time of his death this last Saturday, he earned a number of nicknames and titles like the "The Architect of Rock and Roll" thanks to his profound influence in modern music. RIP, Mr. Penniman and thank you.
