The great ones endure and Gladys Knight has long been one of the greatest. Very few singers over the last fifty years have matched her unassailable artistry. This true legend of the stage and screen has enjoyed No. 1 hits in pop, gospel, R&B, and adult contemporary and has triumphed in film, television and live performance.
Beginning her musical career at the age of four performing gospel music at church, to performing alongside her siblings in the music group, Gladys Knight & The Pips, the naturally gifted Gladys was a superstar in the making. Following the success of the group, with an array of chart-topping hits across the 60s, 70s and 80s including “Every Beat of My Heart,” “Letter Full of Tears,” “I Heard it Through the Grapevine,” and “If I Were Your Woman,” Gladys went on to have one of the most coveted musical careers in history.
