Mildred Virginia Jackson (born July 15, 1944) is an American R&B and soul recording artist. Beginning her career in the early 1960s, three of Jackson's albums were certified gold by the RIAA for over 500,000 copies sold. Jackson's songs often include long spoken sections, sometimes humorous, sometimes sexually explicit. According to the cataloguing site WhoSampled.com, her music has been sampled in over 300 songs. Since she always enjoyed writing poems, Jackson began crafting proto-hip-hop R&B singles in the early 1970s, such as the outspoken "A Child of God (It's Hard to Believe)".
