What should I know about Bessie Smith?

Bessie Smith, the undisputed "Empress of the Blues," is best known for her improvisational skill and emotional intensity that inspired singers across genres. Beyond vocal technique, Bessie's music exposed the emotional realities often absent from the world of classical music. Her songs tackled themes of poverty, love, betrayal, and resilience with unflinching honesty, paving the way for future generations of artists to bring their diverse narratives into the concert hall. The "Empress" may not have performed on grand stages or composed symphonies, but her blues laid bare the human experience in a way that resonated with audiences of all backgrounds.
