I arranged for you and the five aces to play for two of our formal dances at the Phi Sigma Delta house in Columbia Missouri in 1950 1951. You were a smash! Students from all over the campus fell in to hear you, and talked about it for days afterward.
I’m looking forward to hearing you, with my son, who is a rock and roll writer at the Blue Room on July 22nd.
Best of luck. Lloyd Hellman

The list also includes Idris Muhammad, Ahmad Jamaal, Yusef Lateef, John Coltrane, McCoy Tyner, Dizzy Gillespie, and Charlie Parker. Muslims, such as Mos Def and comedian Dave Chaplelle, are also present among the current stars of numerous athletic sports, hip hoc, rap, and academia. The new academics explores the presence and contributions of Muslims and the Islamic side of European, African, and African American history.
