Stevie Wonder is a natural treasure. Over the past 50 years, Stevie has blessed audiences with his talents. Being one of the only artists from Motown’s glory days to still be with the company, Stevie has used his musical talents and stature as a public figure to be a voice for the people, demand to make Martin Luther King’s birthday a natural holiday and bring awareness to apartheid in South Africa.

In regards to giving legends their flowers and things, it is time to celebrate Stevie MORE. Wonder has a rich discography, and has been a major influence for many over the past few generations. 

Today’s biggest musicians appreciate and love them some Stevie! Can you blame them though?

Can I receive a studio album from Stevie & Jazmine Sullivan? PLEASE & THANK YOU.

Auntie Aretha came THROUGH with her version of Until You Come Back To Me (That’s What I’m Gonna Do,) which Stevie wrote & later released in the late 70s. Luther Vandross & Miki Howard have also covered this record.

My fave Mariah is that girl (this we know,) but when she participated in a tribute for Stevie. CHILD!

His music has been covered and sampled by some of the best!

Stevie’s production catalog is something serious as well. He has wrote & produced music for Minnie Riperton, Smokey Robinson & The Miracles, The Spinners, Syreeta, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston & many more!

Stevie kept the hits coming in the early 70s. Superstition, Signed, Sealed, Delivered I’m Yours, Higher Ground? WHEW. SONGS.

Stevie’s artistic growth was evident in the 70s. He became an adult, wiser and move vocal about what it was like for Black people in America. With “Living in the City,” he discussed systemic racism and how the system is ready for the Black man to fail.

The funk inspired hit “You Haven’t Done Nothin'” was a political statement song aimed at President Nixon during the Watergate Scandal. Wonder has NEVER been afraid to speak his mind! s/n: The Jackson 5 sings background vocals!

Stevie’s next album “Songs in the Key Of Life” became one of the best-selling & critically acclaimed albums of his career. The double LP is a very important album, speaking that it was inducted into the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress.

Stevie’s 19th album “Hotter Than July” showcases his appreciation for Reggae music. “Master Blaster (Jammin’)” was honoring Bob Marley, & his remarkable discography.

“All I Do” is also an amazing song that was originally for Stevie as a teenager.

Along Stevie’s many acts of social activism, he was apart of a campaign to make Martin Luther King Jr’s birthday a national holiday. His song “Happy Birthday” made the cause more known! Eventually MLK’s birthday became a national holiday in 1986.

The greatest hits album of his music from 1970s to the early 80s gave us new songs like “Ribbon In The Sky,” “That Girl” & “Do I Do.”

The 80s was also blessed to have more and more hits from the KING!
