TEENA MARIE – NATURAL CAUSES

Teena Marie was a jack-of-all-trades—she was a renowned singer, songwriter, and producer. The way she sang R&B is convincing and soothing at the same time because of her robust and big vocals. If you ask us, that’s also probably why her albums are always on top. She was incredibly talented and also received credit for playing the keyboards and rhythm guitar exceptionally well. Unfortunately for Marie, she met an accident that caused her untimely passing.

In 2004, six years prior to her loss, a large picture frame fell on her head, which caused irreparable brain damage. Since then, she has struggled with seizures. Although it remains unclear if she underwent treatment for the mishap, it was announced that she died of natural causes in December 2010. Before she died, Marie made different investments from her earnings. She was also working on her 14th album, Beautiful, which was finished by her daughter. It was a limited-edition album that they dedicated to her.
