Growing
up in Macon, Georgia, Little Richard (Leon) discovers music through his
church. After winning a local talent contest, Richard is encouraged to
pursue a career as a songwriter and performer, and finds success and
stardom following his first single, "Tutti Frutti." At the height of his
fame, Richard abandons his career in favor of a
religious life. His retirement, however, proves to be short-lived, and
he soon makes a triumphant return to rock 'n' roll.
