Recording Artist Teena Marie was found dead at the age of 54.

Teena had numerous hits on the Soul/R&B/Dance Charts, but a few crossed over to the Hot 100, and she had quite a few gold and platanum albums.  She was best known for the songs "I Need Your Lovin'", "Square Biz" and the smash "Lover Girl" which hit #4 on the Hot 100 chart.


"I Need Your Lovin'"

Tell him when l come up to him and ask to play the record, l'm gonna say: ''Voulez-vous jouer ce disque?''
'Voulez-vous, will you kiss my dick?'
Will you play my record? One-track mind!

I am sorry to hear that. I remember her back in the day. She had an album dedicated to her father.

I can't believe this!  She was always one of my favorites.  What the hell happened to her?

ETA: My mom was shocked and saddened when I told her the news of Teena's passing, but I was shocked to learn that my mom knew who she was.  It seems Teena started singing gospel music, and my mom caught a few of her gospel videos.

This is my favorite:
