Ike Turner

[wiggitywiggitywham]

Dead abusive bastard

[domigi2]

Sharihotsu78 I belive Tina too not tht shit ike!

[717021]

I think it would be awesome if he would have taken off his shoe and started swinging it and screaming for tina like the good old days.

[Frodisboy]

Good for Ike. Totally amazing artist. He needed this, and im glad the world gave it to him. This wasn't the Ex-husband of the year award. Get over it. I'm sure tina has.

[23stephh]

@56stiffy

Go to hell ignorant cunt

[23stephh]

@oazeje12358

You're stupid!

[TheMacMacy]

SEX CRAZED PUSHY ASS WIFE BEATER >:( poor tina had to put up with his shit...im sorry tina you didnt deserve that :(

[AkinEgb]

Wow..., some much tension.

[gayboymotown]

And it was revealed after Ike's death that he had a severe case of bipolar disorder. He experienced several crying spells. Drugs like heroin and cocaine can aggravate the symtoms. I know because my father is the same way. I really believe that had Ike received psychiatric treatment decades ago, he would be able to thrive and blossom, and the fans would be standing in long lines waiting to buy tickets to see 71 y/o Tina and 79 y/o Ike knock these Auto-tuned punks out of the ball park!!!!

[adape0884frank]

@gayboymotown

How could he live the life he did. Was there rehab for people like him back in the day?

[oazeje12358]

Why everybody hates Ike?Hes a classic

And lets face it, a woman isnt a woman when a men dosent put her in her place.

[15davinah]

i hate you ike turner



[oreed8]

boooooo

[DJBlack909]

Things would hav been different if would have just never did any drugs

[iluvtina]

Grammy for what ? lmao, the man was woman abusing nothing, until day he died.

lol He never made Tina, Tina made him(& he knew his music was going nowhere, that's why he took her in.....lol)

She has multi awards, albums homes ect. He had what in later yrs....lol

I would thank him for the 1st discovery of her, & realizing her greatness

[porkisgood4u]

Hardly anyone clap

[SuperBlackChic]

@porkisgood4u I heard claps

[xanforlenders]

these idiots don't know who was on that stage. These claps was ridiculous for how much he deserves! Ike No matter what happenED or what the press will speak after his dead, musically, he began an era. The era of rock 'n roll with very good soul style.

[tommiexander]

Ike was always uncomfortable being upfront. He was not very intelligent and he didn't speak well. He only knew how to talk street language. As a musician he was gifted and he was responsible for Tina's career. But as a man he was ruthless. Women were sex objects to him. From all of the interviews and everything that I have read about him, he never was in love with Tina. Not only did he abuse her, he disrespected her with women, even getting one of the Ikettes pregnant while they were married.

[Seckah]

Hall of Fame!!!

[msmocha1967]

i believe what ike did2tina was wrong by beating her he paid the price n tina b n a success is her best revenge how did u know he didnt repent4all u judgmental asses god is gonna judge u we all4fall short n d eyes of god no sin is worse than d other2god all sin is d same he was a great musician he had1st rock n roll record without him there b no michael jackson james brown luther n tina allowed ppl2think he raped her she admitted he didnt rape her so thats trifilin wat he did was wrong shes2

[Hazafan88]

I love me some Ike Turner. He aint no worse than any of yalls judgemental asses. True, he did Tina wrong, but they both mended that and moved on with life. Who are yall to judge him? If yalls life was made into a movie, I bet you would do everything to make sure none of the fucked up truths in it were displayed on film. I done fucked up too! ITS A HUMAN TRAIT TO FUCK UP! So ereybody here can sit down and shut the fuck up. Let he who aint fucked up cast the first muthafuckin stone, bitches! Smh.

[lazyman300Mph]

Double talkin' jive man !!

Love Tina Turner

Ike is a really bastard pfffffffffffffffff

[ZDLR221]

@lazyman300Mph

i agree you.

[sherly54]

ok luvbugg i will i will have respect for the dead

[luvbugg1975]

[esgbiianca]

I wanna stab ike turner and cut his testicles off and shove him in a cage full with alligators

[luvbugg1975]

@esgbiianca YOUR SO STUPID

[sherly54]

YOU DONT HAVE FANS HOW DID IT FEEL WHEN TINA BEAT YOU IN THAT LEMO IKE WOMAN BEATER TINA SOULD BEAT THE MESS OUT OF YOU THE FIRST TIME YOU HIT HER OR LEFT YOU

[sherly54]

@luvbugg1975 i will get over it and i will have repect for the dead but how can you forget how he did to this women

[spookeddudedevito]

ike was that dude yall need to quit hatin on my boy

[laarbe]

Was glad that Ike found some sort of success and acclaim before he died instead of just being the poster child for wife abuse. I am not condoning his behavior, I was not their and neither were any of you. As a musician he was brilliant and if he did nothing else he did discover Tina. What an accomplishment in life that was. Thanks for the post.

[Nikitannamie]

I HATE YOU IKE . !

[MSSS971]

@56Stiffy i hope you are not married!!conard!

[Univox68]

ike is an idiot

[wreckords]

the father of rock n roll, ike turner!!!!!!!

[Mansawn]

@wreckords He is the father of nothing, he created absolutely nothing, he is only the father of a piece of shit child. thank fuck this dirty nigger is dead.

[lagnaf007]

@wreckords And one hell of a wife beater.

[sexcgal06]

I am glad Tina left him and made something even more of herself.

[AntaresInScorpius]

listen, ike turner was given the short end of the stick by tina, ike rules.

[BardleyCfan]

oh please whatever

[Carpentersfan2003]

How can you say that and hold your head up in public.. Ike was known for his violent temper of witch Tina was on the recieving end of more times then we will ever know. The fact this no man has the right to raise his hand to a woman for any reason.

It took alot of guts on Tina's part to break free of the abuse cycle. She hit rock bottom and when she left Ike she only took her stage name and nothing else. Ike got all the money they made together.

[DownInNutbush]

They had to sleep in buses and clean up at bus stations? Oh man...

Anyways that's how they do in Nutbush...times have changed for the better...poor Tina (and Ike).

[sn83]

I'm sure Ike wasn't a saint but who are we to judge. There is no excuse for beating your woman but I am an angry black man myself so I understand. If you watch my video "Fleet's Appreciation" you will see the definition of an angry low self-esteem individual.

[gittahfiend]

In Ike's own words:Please dont believe

that movie!

[sharihotsu78]

I belive "I, Tina" not the movie! I believe Tina!

[Idsard2007]

Im sure the movie made him a little more evil than he really is.

Its still a movie ! has to sell.

[BuddyChild]

That's wat most ppl fail to see!

[sharihotsu78]

even Tina didn't really like that movie!

[wwwcomunicative]

in the book there are moments waaaaaaaaay more obsene. tina told herself she wished that they showed more truth.

[RDHOU28]

He speaks very intellegently, he was young and made mistakes but I think he still loves Tina and realize he let a good woman go in the mist of his growing up and learning how to "love". He looks healthy. Sorry to hear he died and was trying to get on his feet.

[BardleyCfan]

yes he did still love tina when he died. two days before he died he was watching tina videos. he was in pain but i still can not find nothing nice to say.

[wwwcomunicative]

so do i...when i look at young tina i cannot imagine how is it possible to wish to give her a punch. she is so beautiful and gentle.

[HannaRoli]

Ike may have been a pioneer in creating rock &roll,and found Tina.He may have been under influence when beating,which caused him 2 flip in this way. What ever the reason, there should never be a reason. As a victim of domestic violence for over 5 years (now left him), I saw the the most big hearted beautiful person turn into a monster at a click of a finger. I saw the shame on his face, the tears in his eyes,but there comes a day it just ain't enough. Ike wasn't a monster,he was a sick sick man.

[Shiftyeyes516]

I am glade that he was finnaly recognized for his work - He should be honored for the music he left behind.

[alletdr]

BardleyCfan, with all due respect, I am not yacking out of my butt -- check the photos of both ceremonies, I AM IN THEM. I have had dealings from the inside, with the entire family for years and prefer not to become overly emotional about a relationship that was as tumultuous at times as it was loving. I always appreciate the dedication fans have to "setting the record straight", but rest assured there is far more to this relationship than movies, media reports, or blog information.

[chika507]

lol nobody clapped for him it was so funny lol....it was so quiet well hey everybody knows that he was a bad person

[Teeftaller]

I hate him.

[Shiftyeyes516]

Hate is such a evil word - I understand that you are basing your comments on Tina Turner's movie and news reports - but beleive me there are far more evil men in the world - who have done worst.

[beyoncetyratina]

i cant believe i am saying this, i am a tina lover but, rip ike, but one thing why is ike jr. with ike turner? isnt he supposed to be with tina? and what happened to the 3 other children. (ronnie, michael, and craig turner)

[lordcimek]

He can be with anyone as far as both of them are his parents

[londonboy169]

Damn Bastard Son of a bitch asshole, talking bout "thank god" fool, all those years beating and abusing Tina, and still wanted the fame to hisself, Im so happy she showed him Who was the Real shit, thats, why he burning in hell now dead, his fault for OD on cocain, sorry ass fool

[alletdr]

isn't it fortunate that God forgives where people like you don't; especially since with all the harsh, nasty comments, TINA forgave him years ago and YOU are still holding a grudge!

[rellepsu1]

you know what's funny.....it looks like he wouldn't hurt a fly...

P.S.

How long ago was this?????

[BardleyCfan]

I not trying to be mean of nothing but Ike was not close to the boys like he was to is girls. The boys were always close to their mother aka Tina. All four of them.

[jayonna65]

why is it every time i look up ike ya always got to leave comments like woman beater but when i look up james brown and ray charles and etc. ya dont call them woman beaters ya just give them pat backs like it never happened right lol

i mean tina forgave and dont trip no more why cant ya damn

[alletdr]

THANKS! And not only did she forgive him, but while she was off in Europe IKE was taking care of her mother, up until the day she died. He paid for and attended to her mother's funeral arrangements and Tina didn't even show up, so stop watcing movies and taking things out of context. The couple had obviously moved on.

[BardleyCfan]

but she attend the other funeral. they had two funerals for her mother. tina did not go to the one ike had but she went to the other one. they also have pictures of tina there so don't try to say she did not go to her own mother's funeral.

[iluvjzjzjz]

RIP Ike

[Qilunik]

black artists Ike Turner RIP

[asideofblues]

Does anyone want to be called on the wrong they did 30 years ago? Can you afford that conversation? RIP

[allaboard70]

Ike Turner was a great performer and a very important musican. The history will give him more credit.

[linda34587]

Is he Tina's son? shame on him.

[MUSICENCYLOPEDIA]

Nope. He's actually the son of Ike Sr and Lorraine Taylor, who left him and his brother Michael with Ike & Tina to raise. Tina and Ike only had one son together name Ronnie. Tina also has a son named Craig, who's biological father Raymond Hill had left the band shortly before his was born.

[BardleyCfan]

Legally he is Tiina's son. She adopted them. So Yes that is her son.

[alletdr]

Ike Jr, is Ike's son with his ex-wife Lorraine Turner, not TINA. He has every right to be with his father.

[BardleyCfan]

did you read anything i said if you read it i said that tina adopted him which made him. I never said that he was her bio. child

[riceorroni]

get off da mans dick. Damn he's dead at least respect him and let him rest in peace, regardless he is still one of the best artist in rock-n-roll history!! Everybody makes mistakes, R.I.P. Ike!!

[shye84]

Woman beater

[luvbugg1975]

@shye84 get over it girl!! tina have why can't you!!

[strandwolf]

@shye84 Okay, plus Jimmy Ruffin and Bobby Brown. By the way Tina Turner was bigger and stronger than he was. She pushed his buttons and got a reaction, knowing the consequences. Not right, but not smart.

[BardleyCfan]

@strandwolf lmao who in the hell told u that. u can even read ikes's book ok and he said nothing like that all tina did was hold her problems in and he would get pissed about that and so he beat her also she would try to please him so please don't say nothing like that

[4everjanetlover]

RIP Ike

[MissAmber520]

He's such a prick

[asideofblues]

Ike Turner was an incredible musician. I am so tired of all the current obituaries that bought up all the negative, real and perceived, aspects of his life. As he said in "Rising with the Blues I'm a bad boy but Jesus loves me anyway." Well Ike forgiveness seems to have come hard to the petty and ignorant. I hope to see you in the musician's alley on the other side. RIP

[tempts5]

R.I.P Ike Turner and I am glad that you finally got an award for your work. Sad he did not get to make those albums. And it is sad how people only remember him as a wife beater.

[MikeEder]

I heard he had breathing problems you can hear it in his voice hear compared to how he usually sounded. I will miss him.

[ShayW125]

You won't put your hands on me and get away with it!!!!! I'll play games as much as I like, but you put your hands on me, you won't think TWICE about putting your hands on another woman!!!!

[tristandrews]

Ike rest in peace ike turner

[wreckords]

Mr. Ike Turner, you along w/ Louis Jordan & Chuck Berry invented rock 'n' roll. For that I will forever tip my hat to you & give you the respect you deserve as a rock'n'roll pioneer regardless of your personal life. Also, thank you for making your 1969 LP "A Black Man's Soul" I still bump it up to this very day.

[MAYDAYES]

RIP Ike Turner. Thank God you turn your life around just in time...

[allaboard70]

R.I.P. Ike Turner, the father. You was great from "Rocket 88" in 1951 and up to now. Your music will living on forever. Let It Rock!

[creaturebotman]

I am glad Ike got his grammy before he died. you can beat Tinas ass like no other. RIP Ike.

[MissAmber520]

You stupid fucker

[creaturebotman]

Hey, I am just pointing out the things he used to do. I mean he kick the shit outta Tina. You know? anit niothing like a good sound beatting to get yo woman right thats all I am saying. Ask Sean Connery.

[tinaturner4life]

YOU ARE SOOO STUPID!!

[ladylittles]

I agree. Among the stupidest.

[TABWISH]

rip ike you druggie , woman beating bitch.....your music wa groundbreaking too bad your personal demons got the better of you..

[heatherangel22]

Poor ole Mr. Ike..he never knew the true meaning of life...

[tlharris]

RIP Ike,

You are one of the greats

[jamesbrown69]

NBASTAR IS ILLITERATE

[eastcoming]

Hey nbastar40, maybe when you go through puberty and become a man you won't think so ignorantly. Oh, and a bonus would be if you learned to write correctly. Good luck buddy>

[sharihotsu78]

you're an asshole man

[BardleyCfan]

What is your point?

[boomboominspace]

this is actual proof of Tinas chanting, when you chant for someone you live, positive things come about

[boomboominspace]

auyoch proof of tina chanting and chanting for man that she loved, when we chant nam myoho renge kyo, we can see results in our environment and in the those around us, i chant each day for my family, its hard to be hurt by someone you love, and when you chant, eventually, some value will come

[aceracc323]

one person claped.

[boomboominspace]

this is actual proof of tinas chanting for the man she loved, when u chant, positive results will happen eventually

[yourheretic62]

Isn't this guy Tina Turners son, or something ?

[Ashleyblakeney]

Yes that is Tina Turner son.

[sharihotsu78]

He is not Tina's song is Ike and Lorraine son

[americanmg]

So many folks can't get passed the past, Tina did. Addiction is a disease and changes a person like night & day. I'd like to think he was under the influence when he was being violent. Back then it wasn't "cool" to get help like today. Had it not been for Ike, Anna Mae would probably still be Anna Mae. He named her, helped mold and shape Tina to the powerhouse she became. So lets give credit to where credit is due. Life goes on. Ike was Rockn & Rolln way before Tina came into the picture.

[MUSICENCYLOPEDIA]

Though Tina wrote her book about her life, she always said that she forgave him and when she appeared on Oprah, she said that she wanted him to get a hit record and have the ability to live out his dreams. The only time she attacked him in the media was in 1999, when Ike criticized her for not attending her mother's funeral. Tina said that she wanted her mother to have her moment and she didn't want the press to be all up in her face asking questions about her past.

[gametoaffection]

ha!!!!! they both suck

[wreckords]

People have their own opinion of Ike Turner(Which is understandably so) but one thing his domestic violence reputation can never take away, is the fact that he IS a musical pioneer who helped invent rock 'n' roll WAY BEFORE the Bill Hailey & the Comets "Rock Around The Clock" song came out. And for that, he deserves props!!!!

[Ashleyblakeney]

Who cares what Ike did he had no right putting his hands on Tina.

[wreckords]

It's actually IMPORTANT that people know what Ike Turner did because it's giving credit where it's due. I'm sure Ike Turner wasn't the only male entertainmer to put hands on a woman. John Lennon was a woman beater (which he confessed in one of his final interviews w/ Playboy magazine circa 1980 and in his song w/ the Beatles called "It's Getting Better"), yet he's revered as much as Martin Luther King is these days due to his musical accomplishments and his idealistic humanitarian beliefs.

[BreelyBaby14]

fuck you ike hitting my girl like that dum bitch go drink some bleach kill your self old ass look like he about to fall apart tina still look good

[espritgender]

Ike Turner is a great musician. TT was a singer in his band. He's back ! He's proud !

[jwwindsor]

I heard two people clap. They must have been heavily paid to clap. Ike Turner is a washed up nobody. Like Adolph Hitler, his death will be a liberation for everyone.

[almanacofsleep]

This is just ingorance, woman beating aside( wich I agree is a horrible thing To do),Ike created rock and roll(rocket 88) helped pave a way for black artists to come, and dicoverd Tina a put her singing in front.

[Donpopeel]

I never understood how Tina could sing with a broken jaw.

[BardleyCfan]

I think that Tina son Craig do not like Ike.

[ldysonle]

You commented back that you still could not find anything nice about hime to say. Not even a comment on his talent? Wow hope you are perfect.

[perarion]

Is ike turner dead from what?

[royshawn]

he seems so nice, but he is really a monster, i cant believe tina let this ugly muthafucka beat her. i would had killed that son of a bitch if if i was one of tina's son

[lucbanconcerncitizen]

rubbish!!!!ike is rubbish

[divadoll1]

wack ass nigga.......such a sorry man!!!!

[kmorgan255]

he is fuck up! Ike do fight n hit n kick to Tina Turner.. i hate him so wank old man! her so feel sore but now no more with Ike is EVIL!!! ( u know better)

[xCherylxPoynterx]

Omg How Can You People Down There Say You Love

Ike Turner? ! He Beat Up Tina (His Wife) And She Was Such A Nice Person ... He Is A Basterd ! Thank God He Is Dead Now :D Am Happy !

[remedave]

ie turner isnt dead. and thats all you people see is him beating up tina turner. but she insulted his music which got her to the top and left him he was good to her untill that point i love tina turner but she wasnt satified. it happens everyday it may happen to you what would you do if you walked in her shoes

[d820m]

Ike may have done all that to Tina, but Tina herself was no saint either. She had a baby out of wedlock to Ike's saxaphonist Raymond Hill prior to hooking up with Ike. Tina's last few albums weren't nothing to write home about. These days the old sounds are coming back, not the over-produced synth-drenched stuff that Tina seems to be content to put out. Come back to R&B Tina!!!!

[ellafannigan]

Ike Turner is SIMPLY THE BEST

[jmarti2006]

Ike Turner Jr is not Tina's biologically, but he is Ike's son, and he'll stand by his dad. that what family is all about. That ike and tina stuff ended more than 30 years ago. let it go.

[esponjajl3]

That is to be expected of a Ike's son especially if he was not Tina's biological. thanks for the input. It is not about how long ago it was, as a female, I naturally feel the way I do about that situation. You must be a die hard fan or family member. again thanks for clarifying that for me.

[esponjajl3]

I can't believe that Ike junior is still standing right behind his dad after all of that. I remember in the movie that 2 of the kids were not Tina's I wonder if he is one of them

[doctanner1]

No Ike Jr is not Tina's son with Ike. She only had Ronald Turner With Ike.

[esponjajl3]

It makes sense now

[jdvlnbrswll]

I love you Ike...

[51392]

Ha Ha Wifebeater

[tdubluver]

The man made mistakes and is paying for it. Instead of cutting him down find a way to help him. And if you don't want to help him then just shut up plain and simple.

[nosibor]

YEAH BABY YOU ARE THE BOMB.........

[almodu]

lol only like 2 people clapped for him.

[l0os3nup]

oh yes, the wifebeater definately deserved a grammy

[nosibor]

YOU DONT KNOW HIM AT ALL

[l0os3nup]

i never said i did know him

[xms32]

you let a movie dictate your reality? You have a very small mental capacity. I suppose you believe everything you see in the movies. lol.

[ldysonle]

Hi is not judged on his personal life but his professional life as a musician. Learn to not judge so harshly because you will be judged. Hope you are perfect. I do not agree with what he did but obviously they do not reward "wife beaters" I bet you like Bobby Brown right? What about DMX?

[BethCfan]

hummmmmmmm someone mad lol whatever lol like any of us care that u don't hate ike. wow just remember there are many people who do and u would never change that so shut up.
