The great ones endure, and Gladys Knight has long been one of the greatest. Very few singers over the last fifty years have matched her unassailable artistry. This seven-time Grammy winner has enjoyed #1 hits in Pop, Gospel, R&B and Adult Contemporary, and has triumphed in film, television and live performance.

Knight also enjoyed the success of her song "You and I Ain't Nothin' No More" which appeared over the end credits of the critically-acclaimed Lee Daniels film THE BUTLER.
