Female Singers Who Have Left Their Mark On The Music Industry And Beyond

Minnie Julia Riperton Rudolph

Born Minnie Julia Riperton, the “Queen of the Whistle Register” received the fun moniker because of her great five-octave coloratura soprano vocal range. In April 1975, she released the song “Loving You.” The rest is history. The track was actually part of her “Perfect Angel” album from the previous year. It is now certified gold. She passed away at age 31. The whole world felt the loss of such a talented artist.
