If you're younger than a certain age, you may only know Ray Charles from actor Jamie Foxx's portrayal of him in the hit biopic "Ray." But the blind singer and pianist's influence can hardly be overstated. He pioneered his own music genre in the 1950s, blending country, R&B and gospel into his own sound.
And while the film covers a number of the hardships Charles went through in his life, it's hard to cover everything in just a few hours. From his struggles with drugs to dealing with political backlash, Charles had more than his share of difficulties over his life and career. Here's the untold truth of Ray Charles.

I am in my seventies and remember this dude as listening to him as a 11 year old in New Zealand. Used to rush home from school every thursday to watch him on black and white Tv. He had his own show on the only Tv station in New Zealand. His music moved me. I was learning piano at the time. There has been no one with the ability to traverse various genres and his rolling of notes still brings tears to the eyes. He was a marvel. Certainly a trend setter and ahead of his time. Given his background and meagre background what he achieved was remarkable. Bless him

Ray Charles appeared on Saturday Night Live in 1977 performing his version of Johnny Nash's "Bright Sunshine Day" and his own "That's What I Say", but damn! Look at how many gorgeous ladies he had on board!

GenX'ers and millennials will never know what it was like, having amazing black music of the 50s, 60s and early to mid 70s. Seriously you GenXers and millennials missed out on the best time for rhythm and blues/soul music from the late 1957- 1975

Black music died in the 90's when people stopped learning and using instruments... thank Republicans and some crooked Democratic politicians for slashing music programs in urban schools. We lost countless future talent 👍🏾

@@sonofsocrates9899 I agree with this, black music was dying badly throughout the 90s. In your opinion what would you consider the golden era of black music?

Um..... the music is still very available and sounds exactly as it did the day it was recorded and if anything even better with remastering. But I get what you mean. But if you think about it back then musicians had basically a clean or cleaner slate so to speak for creating new music that had never been heard before and as the years go on it must get harder n harder to create new sounds never heard before you know what I mean.... I can't really imagine like a brand new guitar hero or band coming up with brand new hit music riffs n lyrics never ever even remotely heard of by now..... I don't know so yeah man I'd agree with what you mean by newer generations missing out but I think I would love to be a kid right now and be just discovering and hearing all the classic music of the past for the first time like I am with music from like the 20s and so on. It's kinda weird that even though that music has been old for so long especially to people of the era that somehow its not considered new to the present generations since they basically are hearing brand new for the first time just as the people back then heard it for the first time... But it doesn't seem to be, I mean it's like it's old music to them as well just as it is for the people who lived through those past generations, instead of being new as they are just hearing it for the first time. Like trying to get kids to watch classic cartoons or something like bugs bunny. Kids look at classic looney toons like what is this crap turn it to SpongeBob or what ever. Shit I'm getting old I think now SpongeBob is of the past idk what the toons are now but I my opinion I still think the classics are better.. I'll shut up now... carry on
