MAYA RUDOLPH and MINNIE RIPERTON

Minnie Riperton passed away in 1979 and left a major vacuum in the world of music. She will always be remembered for Lovin’ You, the single that she churned out in the year 1975.

She passed away on the 12^th of July, 1979. Minnie kind of ruled the music industry from the year 1962 until her death. It feels so bad when we feel her absence even now.

Minnie had certainly set some serious career goals for Maya Rudolph, her daughter, who is now 48 and has appeared in numerous TV shows and movies. Although Minnie couldn’t see her daughter attaining one milestone after another, she had certainly taught her about the importance of having some good savings. The gorgeous lady has already made her mark by doing celebrity impressions on the hit TV show Saturday Night Life.
