Stevie Wonder was a Motown child prodigy long before he was a rock-radio fixture. Born in Saginaw in 1950 and blind since just after birth, he signed to Motown's Tamla label at 11 as Little Stevie Wonder, and in his early teens he was topping the charts with an excitable harmonica and a voice that climbed to the rafters. For the rest of the decade he was one of the most reliable hitmakers the label had.

Then he walked away from the assembly line. Music of My Mind and Talking Book, both from 1972, traded the Motown sound for synthesizers and keyboards, and the results still sound like the future arriving early. "Superstition" rides a keyboard riff so funky it practically sweats. Innervisions in 1973 brought the grit of "Living For the City" and the churchy menace of "Higher Ground", and Fulfillingness' First Finale and the sprawling Songs in the Key of Life, home of "Sir Duke", "I Wish" and "As", completed a run that won him the Grammy for Album of the Year with three albums in a row. No Black musician had taken that prize before him.

He made his albums hang together as statements, socially conscious and harmonically rich, and his electronic palette rewired what R&B could sound like. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducted him in 1989, and in 2014 he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
