Said to say it could be that Rick James curse.
Stop...step away from the grave and show respect, Phil!
what is the rick james curse?
Death is not a joke. Show some respect for her family.
I am in shock... numb... wanna cry, but can't. I've grown the span of this woman's career, remember when she came on the scene, till this very day. She won the hearts of people of color, and remains our sweetheart. Oh, how I will miss her soulful, passionate singing...
"People of color", really? Do people actually still say that? Get a life & use better terminology please.
Could not have said it better myself. Gone way too soon
"Person of color" is a perfectly acceptance term. Why not look it up and make it part of your vocabulary?
"PPL OF COLOR"...SMH DATS JUST WHY THIS WORLD IS CORRUPTED NOW INSTAD OF EVERYBODY WORKING AS AN ANTAGONIST AGAINST ONE OF ANOTHER, EVERYBOY SHOULD WORK AS PRIME MOVERS TO HELP EACH OTHERS ITS MF"S LIKE YOU THAT WILL CONTINUE TO STIR UP CORRUPTION LIKE EVERYONE ELSE LIVES IS JUS A RECIPE TO YOU...WELL I DONT APPRECIATE YO BOWLING PIN A** SAYING THAT BS AT A CRISIS LIKE THIS... SHAME ON YOU!!!!! GO BRAINSTORM
My sentiments exactly.
"Person of color" is a perfectly acceptance term. Why not look it up and make it part of your vocabulary?
....perfectly acceptance term?!.....LoL. And they need to look something up??? Really? LoL
from a white lady. My goodness...u use the term people of color? Did u really just say that? Let me correct u, everyone loved Teena, EVERYONE and by the way, everyone is colored, just not your color.
I think the term people of color is what it is and that's not a term to use on Us; Just say Black and keep it moving... From a Black person not (a person of color)...R.I.P Lady T and please forgive the lost few out there...
It would help if the writer of this post provided information on the person who died. I've don't recall the name Teena Marie, but if given some information on her 'works' I might.
Irons in the Fire
Come on bert f. "Fire and Desire"...Do even listen to music?
Seriously? Seriously? She was a real Diva unlike today's pasted together no talents. READ your history and stop listening to so called "top 40 radio". rick james ring any bells?
I agree, what would it have taken for the writer to do research on her before posting. I actually refreshed the page twice cause I thought my computer didnt load it properly. Teena Marie was a huge part of the 80's music scene and was sometimes known as lady t. She sung a song called Square Biz which was as great as the song was popular. In that particular song she rapped and sang. You can check sites like Wikipedia for more info. Hope it helps.
"Fire &Desire"," "deja Vu", "Happy", "I need your lovin", " Lover girl", "Portuguese love" , "Square Biz" , "Im just a sucker for your love" (This represents a small list of her greatest hits from the 80's)
Are you really that young? Square Biz, Irons in the Fire, If I were a bell, Deja Vu, Dear Lover,.....
Im not familiar with all of her work either but recently became quite obsessed with her song "Square Biz" and rocked to it all summer long.
Damn, Damn, Damn!!!!!!
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo :*(
Damn. Damn Damn
Could we have a little more information paleeezzeee??? Thank you.
She will be missed.
Yes...yes...yes!
Wow this is so sad, my prayers go out to her family and loved ones during this time
omg. i still don't want to believe it. lady t is r&b royalty.
