Sam Cooke was an iconic American singer, songwriter, and entrepreneur who revolutionized the music industry through his soulful voice and powerful lyrics. He is best known for his hit songs such as “You Send Me”, “A Change Is Gonna Come”, and “Wonderful World”. Born in Clarksdale, Mississippi in 1931, Sam Cooke began singing gospel music at the age of six with his siblings in the group The Singing Children. By the time he was fifteen years old, he had already become a solo artist and had performed on national radio and television shows. In 1957, Sam Cooke signed with RCA Records and released his first single “You Send Me” which shot up to number one on both the R&B and pop charts. This success made him one of the first black artists to achieve mainstream success in pop music. Following this success, he released several more hits such as “Only Sixteen”, “(What A) Wonderful World”, and “Cupid” which all peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. In addition to his chart-topping singles, Sam Cooke also released five studio albums throughout his career including Songs By Sam Cooke (1958), Hits of The World (1959), Ain't That Good News (1964), Night Beat (1965), and Live at The Harlem Square Club (1963).
Throughout his career as a musician, Sam Cooke won numerous awards including four Grammy Awards for Best Rhythm & Blues Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal for "Twistin' The Night Away" in 1963; Best Rhythm & Blues Recording for "A Change Is Gonna Come" in 1965; Best Soul Gospel Performance for "A Change Is Gonna Come" in 1966; and Lifetime Achievement Award posthumously awarded in 1987.
