This isn't even really a quote, it's more of a catchphrase. He's always said this and he's mostly right.

Elvis??? Um no, Elvis might have made rock n roll popular, but he didn't invent it, and he even copied the black artists.

Little Richard is da man! ho-HO! At least he got it right when he got his face done. Can't say the same for Whacko Jacko.
~BAM!

All he needed was to say "One of the innovators, etc. Then he'd be right.

I love Little Richard, he is an original. I love watching him, he puts a smile on my face.

Well now, he has a point! Originator: He probably was the first to openly do drag. Innovator: He probably invented botox, the man has not aged a day of 20 years. Emancipator: Long before the Village People, he made it cool for men to gay. Architet of Rock and Roll: I won't go there, it's just too easy! All I'll say is make-up!
LOL - Lighten up/ I don't hate/dislike/or disapprove of anyone's lifestyle!
