    "comment": "R & B singer Carl Carlton died last Sunday at age 72.\n\nBorn May 21, 1953, in Detroit, Carlton began his music career in the mid-1960s under the name \"Little Carl\" Carlton, inviting a comparison to Stevie Wonder, with whom he shared a similar vocal style.\nHis 1974 disco-inflected remake of \"Everlasting Love\" reached No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100, bringing him mainstream success and a lasting favorite.\n\nBut it was the 1981 single \"She's a Bad Mama Jama (She's Built, She's Stacked)\" that became Carlton's signature song, earning him a Grammy Award nomination for Best R&B Vocal Performance and later gold album status. The track has remained culturally resonant, accumulating millions of streams, being widely sampled, and appearing in films and television soundtracks.\n--\nWatch a live performance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8K5EYXGcvM",
