Anybody who can sit still or not sing to a Teena Marie song has no soul. She was definitely a talented artist.

I have a story to cheer you up: New Years Eve 1985-6, I was a bouncer at the Hollywood Palace on Vine. All the other bouncers lived out in the valley, I lived a few blocks away on Highland. My boss, Julio called me up to open up around 10am for Teena to do her sound check. I told her I sang in metal bands growing up. She rehearsed 3 songs, square biz, out on a limb, and lovergirl. She invited me up on stage to sing lovergirl again, I knew all the words. Working at the Palace I met so many famous musical acts, but Teena was THE coolest, funny, polite, humble, with an incredible voice. A super great memory for me because we sold out her concert and reached the fire codes maximum capacity. I was letting people in the side door for $100 per head, I went home with about $2000.

Teena Marie was absolutely fabulous. Sad when she died

I know I have to halt the flow of tears because she was so belittled or blocked from simple acceptance. Blessedly this piscean haulocaust didnt let this affect her and she fought several worthy cause. And in her vocals lyrics and passionate delivery the message that I was so proud to be a woman because of was LOVE. She was courageous fierce a fighter. I miss the chance to say it to her. Love you Teena Marie.💥👉💗🙅‍♀️

I don't think she was underrated in the 80's I was a teenager then and many of us teen's loved her and her music ,they also played her music at clubs and many parties.Maybe she is underrated now because many people don't speak of her or listen to her music .Teena Marie was one of my favorites I saw her and Rick James in concert back in the day.I still listen to their music.I think Laura Branigan was underrated back in the 1980's Listen to some of her songs now on youtube and you will see how powerful her voice is and how underrated she was . RIP Teena M RIP Laura B.

I'm a huge fan! I started hearing her songs in 1980! Square Biz! I was 9! In the mid 80s she exploded! Out on a Limb had me in tears! She would bring you in when you hear her sing! She was definitely our strong Ivory Queen!! RIP Teena!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊

Still hard to accept she's gone, one of the best R&B/funk musicians and singers ever, she really knew how to talk to men in particular with her music. A substantial loss indeed!😒

👉 She isn't dead to the almighty God of Abraham, Issac, Jacob, Moses and Jesus Christ either. She's merely *asleep* in death (there's a huge difference).🙏 Teena exists in almighty *YHWH/JEHOVAH* God’s perfect memory and He will awaken her and MANY others from sleep within His foretold global paradisaic new world of righteousness during the resurrection (2 Peter 3 : 13). "But that the dead are raised up, even Moses made known in the account about the thornbush,+ when he calls Jehovah ‘the God of Abraham and God of Isaac and God of Jacob.’+ 38 He is a God, not of the dead, but of the living, *for they are all living to him."* *~ LUKE 20 : 37, 38*

Tell Marie with one of the most phenomenal performers of the late 70s and early 80s. Her music with fuel rating, powerful, and very very soulful. I will always love and respect her talent and her achievements throughout her career.

I was listening to her last night I love her music always listen to her music never gets old .R.I .P vanilla child ❤

This woman enhanced my childhood. Love her. R.I.P. Ms TM 💐

I was fortunate and blessed to see my idol perform live in NYC in the mid 90s. She was promoting her "Passion Play" album. One truly underrated song...a duet she did with Lenny Kravitz..."Main Squeeze". I remember when she passed, friends called me to see if I was okay...like a family member had died. I loved her music since I was about 10 years old. I believe she was the first to incorporate rap in a R & B song. My nickname back in the 80's...Lady T! I'm rambling...LOL. Rest in power Teena.

Loved Teena Marie. She was so talented, and I still listened to her music today.❤

I ❤ Teena Marie. May she rest in peace 💔

So glad she did not fall for pretender RJ. Some women fall for the male bs. I love Teena for being a strong, intelligent & talented woman. May she rest in peace. Loved forever but never forgotten. Tysm for all the good songs & lyrics, lady Tee. Ty for sharing this.

Good God, what a force of nature our Lady T proved to be!! The unstoppable tenacity and vibrancy she exuded was captivating. Gutsy and gifted. Truly uplifting. Sadly, another one of the greats, who was taken from us way too soon. Her catalog is hefty and vast, packed with hits. So much talent was inside of such a petite physique.

Thanks for putting this video up on here. I am from London. We in London followed here from the late 1970s thanks to the Rick James connection. Anyone reading this from the UK will remember her I’,m Just a Sucker your Love, Portuguese Love, Square Biz, I need you loving amongst other hits. I saw her play the Hammersmith Odeon concert in the 1980s and sadly, she was not on key when singing but to be there after years of buying her records was enough for us. Rick’s contribution was obvious over the years and I like many have never stopped playing her records. Her daughter should be as popular as Teena, for some reason it has not happed…Yet. I am waiting for that!

That was a beautiful tribute.

I still listen like she just dropped her album yesterday. 😊

I had heard of Teena Marie from childhood as the singer of Lovergirl. But when Congo Square came out, I fell in love with her as a younger listener (I was in my 20s). RnB is my fave music genre and that was such a good album. I was blown away by her talent and voice. That was when I realized what a seasoned and underrated artist she was. I then went backwards and bought a lot of her older music, and adored it. I couldn't believe it and was so sad to hear when she passed. She was still so young. I feel like Teena Marie was both right on time and a bit ahead of her time in this world. I wish her and her family and loved ones peace and healing. 🕊

Teena Marie, beautiful talented angelic powerful voice. I listen to her music all the time ❤🕊🙏

She has a beautiful voice her songs give me goosebumps not too many singers can do that to me may she rest in peace🕊🌈🕊
