After having spawned one of the most prolific careers in the music industry, Little Richard, the pioneer of rock n roll has passed away at the age of 87.

His death was confirmed by his son, but the cause was not given.

All were driven by his flamboyant, screaming style that was part church revival, part sexually charged performer.

May his soul rest in peace.
