80's R&B songstress Teena Marie has died; at age 54.
Reports are stating that the R&B singer was found unresponsive at her home in Pasadena by her daughter Alia Rose on Sunday, December 26. The report also states that she died of natural causes. The singer was well known for duets she sung alongside 'Rick James' and also for hit singles such as Lovergirl, Deja-vu and Cassanova Brown.
First, I would like to say R.I.P Teena Marie. Secondly, I find it eerie how two former Cash Money members have passed away. Teena will truly be missed.
ReplyDeleteTeena was too young to die of Natural causes. This doesn't make sense. Maybe she had a health condition (like AIDS) that her family doesn't want exposed to the public.
ReplyDeleteAt the time of her death, Teena Marie was a member of cash money. Cash Money records lost two members (Magnolia Shorty and Teena Marie).
It's extremely eerie.
The last time Teena and Rick James performed on stage together. They were both unrecognizable. 'Something ain't right about her death or his. They both were found unreponsive!
ReplyDelete@ Lyrica - You might find the bottom paragraph a bit disturbing as i have:
ReplyDelete"By the 2000’s, Teena Marie signed with a major hip hop label, Cash Money Records and released La Dona and Sapphire. La Dona went gold and was Teena’s highest-charting album. Now, separated from Cash Money, Teena Marie released her 13th studio album “Congo Square” last year. Sadly that album will mark her last. Teena Marie passed away today at her home in California. She will forever be remembered for her musical contributions to the world of Soul, Funk and R&B."
- At the time of her death, she was separated from Cash Money Records (same as Magnolia Shorty).

ReplyDelete@9:03 Exactly Teena Marie dying of a natural cause at a very young age. I refuse to believe this is the cause. I am not buying this b.s.
ReplyDelete@Truthfully Speaking thank you for pointing this out to me. Something is going on in Cash Money Records because two formers member are now deceased, and Magnolia Shorty and Teena Marie deaths are not far apart either.
ReplyDeleteThey say that death comes in 3's, two were former Cash Money labelmates who released two albums after leaving the label. Two fishy deaths it seems.
ReplyDeleteShe died a day after Christmas and a Day after her daughter's 19th birthday.
ReplyDelete"19 yrs ago today, I was in labor! My heavenly father gave me the most glorious gift I could ever receive. A Baby girl on Christmas!"

On the morning of August 6, 2004, Rick James was found dead in his Burbank, California, home at the Oakwood apartment complex on Barham Boulevard by his caretaker. James had died from pulmonary failure and cardiac failure with his various health conditions of diabetes, stroke, a pacemaker, and a heart attack. Through his autopsy it was discovered he was under the influence of alprazolam, diazepam, bupropion, citalopram, hydrocodone, digoxin, chlorpheniramine, methamphetamine and cocaine.[3] However the coroner would go on to say; "None of the drugs or drug combinations were found to be at levels that were life threatening in and of themselves. "[4] He was buried at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Buffalo.
ReplyDelete@10:54 Poor Alia Rose to lose her mother right near her birthday man this makes Teena's death really more sadder. There is no telling what that poor child is going through. Alia and Teena will def. be in my prayers.
ReplyDelete@11:17 As for Rick James death I did not know he was that sick my goodness!! On top of that Rick James had all does drugs in his body. I believe all does drugs kill Rick. This why I do not agree with doctors prescribing people with lots of medications for the illness. The Corner lied because all does drugs in Rick's system is deadly.
@ Lyrica - Yes, my prayers are with Alia and her entire family.
ReplyDelete@Truthfully speaking Thank you.
ReplyDelete@Lyrica - you are so right and I didn't hear lil wayne or baby say anything about teena and she was sign to them mmmm something doesn't add up right.
ReplyDeleteThey sure did send out a RIP to Magnolia but didn't utter a word about Teena Marie. They didn't say anything about her daughter either!
