The True Story Behind Viola Davis Character in Ma Rainey s Black Bottom Kayla Keegan
On December 18, Netflix released the new film
Ma Rainey s Black Bottom, a drama adapted from a play of the same name, written by late Pulitzer-winning playwright
August Wilson. Produced by
Viola Davis, the movie centers around real-life blues pioneer
Gertrude Ma Rainey, on the day that she and her band record a song called Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom.
Watching Viola depict Ma, it s clear the Oscar-winning actress did a lot of preparation to portray the powerful, bawdy, and charismatic singer. Although Viola worried she wouldn t be able to sing well enough to play the iconic Mother of Blues, after reading the script she knew she had to get involved.

“They don’t care nothin’ about me. All they want is my voice.” These are the words Ma Rainey uses to describe her white record producers in new Netflix film
Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, based on the life of trailblazing blues singer Gertrude Pridgett. With her carefully coiffed hair, bright make-up and trademarked gold teeth – Rainey (played by Viola Davis) is a vibrant figure with a powerful stage presence. But it is her voice – and not just the one she uses for singing – that shines through the story, as she pushed back against those intent on controlling her (namely her white management).
