(en) Cub Koda, « Frankie Lymon », AllMusic (consulté le ) : « Frankie Lymon (1942-1968) & the Teenagers were a New York doo-wop group consisting of Joe Negroni, Herman Santiago, Jimmy Merchant, and Sherman Garnes but centered around the extraordinary talents of their lead singer, thirteen-year-old Frankie Lymon. Lymon was credited with their first big hit, Why Do Fools Fall in Love (In the early '90s, a federal judge ruled after a lengthy trial that Lymon hadn't written Why Do Fools Fall in Love — another member of the Teenagers had). His wise-beyond-his-years vocal and performing abilities not only made the Teenagers a group several notches above the competition but made Lymon the first Black teenage pop star. »
