Sledge Miss.?

I’m surprised that the CNN article failed to mention another son of a poor Sledge sharecropper—the great C&W and Grand Ole Opry star performer Charley Pride. He even wrote and sang about A Cottonpicking Mississippi Delta Town.

They would have been featuring an inspirational and talented person who achieved great success no matter where he was born, what color he was, or that he was bipolar.
