È morto all'età di 86 anni, per complicazioni legate al Covid-19, Charley Pride. Fu la star afroamericana della musica country, il primo ad essere inserito nella Country Music Hall of Fame, nel 2000, e il cantautore con le maggiori vendite per la Rca Record prima di Elvis Presley. Vinse due Grammy Award e i suoi brani conquistarono 29 volte la vetta delle classifiche del genere.
Nato in Mississippi nel 1934, in piena segregazione razziale, pubblicò il primo album nel 1966 e raggiunse la fama negli anni '70 con numerose hit tra le quali Kiss an Angel Good Mornin' del 1971.
Varie personalità della musica hanno espresso il proprio cordoglio per la sua morte. Anche l'ex presidente George W. Bush gli ha reso omaggio, definendolo "un fine gentiluomo con una grande voce".
Un mese fa aveva ricevuto un premio ai Country Music Association Awards a Nashville. Poi il contagio. Dalla fine di novembre era ricoverato a Dallas. Sulla sua pagina Facebook la famiglia si è detta certa che "avrebbe voluto che i suoi fan prendessero molto sul serio questo virus".
