Ray Charles (Albany, 23 de Setembro de 1930 — Los Angeles, 11 de Junho de 2004) foi um pianista pioneiro e cantor de música soul que ajudou a definir o seu formato ainda no fim dos anos 50, além de um inovador intérprete de R&B. Seu nome de nascimento era Raymond Charles Robinson, mas ele encurtou-o quando entrou na indústria do entretenimento para evitar confusão com o famoso boxeador Sugar Ray Robinson. Considerado um dos maiores gênios da música negra americana, Ray Charles também foi um dos responsáveis pela introdução de ritmo gospel nas músicas de R&B. Cego aos sete anos de idade em razão de um glaucoma e órfão na adolescência, Ray Charles iniciou sua carreira tocando piano e cantando em grupos de gospel, no final dos anos 40. A princípio influenciado por Nat King Cole, trocou o gospel por baladas profanas e, após assinar com a Atlantic Records em 1952, enveredou pelo R & B. Quando o rock & roll estourou com Elvis Presley em 1955, e cantores negros como Chuck Berry e Little Richard foram promovidos, Ray Charles aproveitou o espaço aberto na mídia e lançou sucessos como "I got woman" (gravada depois por Elvis), "Talkin about you", "What I'd say", "Hit The Road Jack", "Little girl of mine", entre outros, reunindo elementos de R & B e gospel nas músicas de uma forma que abriram caminho para a soul music dos anos 60, e tornando-o um astro reverenciado do pop negro.
