Biography
Carl Carlton, also known as "The Bad C.C." (born May 21, 1952, Detroit, Michigan, USA and died December 14, 2025) was an American soul/funk singer and songwriter. He began his career in the 1960s using the name "Little Carl Carlton" for the Lando label.
In 1967 moved to Houston, Texas. After some local hits, he was signed by Don Robey to the Texan record label. When that label was sold to ABC Records, he became embroiled in a royalty dispute with the new ownership. He then went on to Mercury, making just one single. Then Leon Haywood brought him to 20th Century Fox Records. He is best known for his recordings of Robert Knight's "Everlasting Love" and "She's A Bad Mama Jama". In 2010, he started performing gospel music.
