Blues/R&B legendary singer Etta James passed Friday morning fighting a battle of Leukemia in Riverside, CA.

One of the first women inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Jame’s feisty blues style captivated millions and has been acknowledged in recent years with Beyoncé’s portrayal of her in the movie “Cadillac Records” in 2008 and the use of “At Last” for Barack and Michelle Obama‘s first dance after his inauguration in 2009.

“This is a tremendous loss for the family, her friends and fans around the world,” longtime friend and manager, Lupe De Leon told CNN. “She was a true original who could sing it all — her music defied category.”

Etta James was 73!
