Maya Rudolph and Minnie Riperton

I never knew all that much about Minnie Riperton back in the day, aside from the fact that she sang “Loving You” and could hit high notes that most people couldn’t even imagine reaching. But aside from all that, some of the most interesting information I ever learned about Riperton is that she is the mother of famous comedienne and Up All Night star Maya Rudolph. To this day, Rudolph pays homage to her mom, speaking about her during an episode of TV One’s Unsung, and even dressing up how her mother did on the cover of her album, Perfect Angel, for the bumper photos in between commercials while hosting the show she blew up on, Saturday Night Live.
