Bessie Smith (April 15, 1894 -- September 26, 1937) was an American blues singer.

Sometimes referred to as The Empress of the Blues, Smith was the most popular female blues singer of the 1920s and 1930s.

She is often regarded as one of the greatest singers of her era and, along with Louis Armstrong, a major influence on subsequent jazz vocalists.

This was an example of greatness that started the jazz influenced artists who were responsible for the better type of music we have today. Bessie Smith influence almost all black artists and Mae West was quick to pick up on the earthy reality of this pure and uncensored music....
