A talented Drummer. Singer, business man, People were jealous of Teddy, He had a unique way with the ladies, Don't hate the player, "Hate the game ! RIP TP 🙏
His real secret was that he couldn't really dance a bit with any rhythm but was an excellent drummer and musician... The rest is all unnecessary goolagosh from nosey people who want to seem important after his passing. The guy was beyond talented....His genius can never be tarnished...❤❤❤
Teddy Pendergrass had only females concerts and he also had jeans back n the late 1970's and 1980's which rivaled Gloria Vanderbilt jeans back during that time frame called Teddy jeans which woman where wearing.
It’s so sad that so many don’t understand that God gave them their talent. He made room for all that was famous or not. You see! No one had to be jealous. You didn’t have to kill your brethren, to make room for yourself, or your love ones. Just maybe it wasn’t your time to be famous. Also! Jealous is like a cancer, once you let it inside of your life, “IT WILL EAT YOU ALIVE”. Listen! Let God be your producer. “He’s the one that gave you the talent.”. 🙏🏽 Learn to have patience, and you won’t be so quick to make a patient, of your brethren”. May God have mercy on all of those who didn’t obey God to, love everyone, “EVEN OUR ENEMIES”. 🙏🏽❤️
They have none they gone Allways tear a black man even when he he dead no matter what the secret was let it be and test in peace king we forever 💕 you teddy pendagrass
Not pray, just hope, because your prayer on that point could not do anything for him any longer. No repentance in the grave, hoping he made things right with God before he left. Those are the music we danced to at nightclub disco in the '80s.
I remember when it first hit the newspapers the next day, people in the 80s already knew. This person looked like a beautiful woman who could have fooled a lot of men. I am definitely a fan of his from way back with Harold Melvin. I have all his hits and videos. There will never be another Teddy 🧸 ❤️ .
I still love Teddy Pendergrass. He was a magnificent performer. His voice was One of a kind.sometimes his music would soothe my soul when I was in a dark place in My life. I still miss not hearing him on the radio Or TV. But life is fleeting. You have to embrace life while you can. Rest in peace TP.❤
Please let this amazing artist Rest In Heavenly Peace 🙏🏾🕊️🙏🏾🕊️🙏🏾 i never heard anything bad about him till this day me an my girls still lov to go down memory lane with their mother an sing 🙏🏾🙏🏾
luther vandross and peabo bryson and james ingram and jeffery osborne and teddy pendergrass and marvin gaye. and countless others. countless others. tina turner. too many of them. countless others. all of them. god bless all of them.
I was fortunate enough to see Teddy live in 1980 and he was intoxicatingly beautiful 😍 a voice and style like no other ❤ LEGEND!!!!! *Another love tko* swoooooon...
Who cares what other people think about his music and WHO HE geared his music to. He was a genius . Great singer, who had a way of singing which I SOMETIMES thought he was SINGING ONLY TO ME!!!! He died years ago let him BE IN PEACE!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank you Jesus for helping us! And for your mercy Grace and forgiveness allowing us to make it back home to you for an eternity May brother Pendergrass rest in peace!! PEACE ✌ and LOVE 💖💝 2U ALL🎉!!
My man..🙇♂️😔⚘ Teddy...R.I.P... You was my musical inspiration..in the past..you still my inspiration now.. And you will forever be my inspiration.. Please.. Rest in peace.. This is for the big mouths who are using your name in vein..so they can profit.. " SHOUT THE F@## UP".. 😔😔😔😔🙏
Ever since i appreciated Teddy as a person and his loads of ballads/soul genre sometimes in d middle 1980 ,he's bin my best male song star and cud hardly be beaten by any male yet asi existentialise to a very ripe old age Godwilling ,Ameeeeeeeeeeeen .
Lot of truth store near the very end. Teddy Pendergraph had the accident on Lincoln Drive, which is true, which was the 90s district of Philadelphia Pennsylvania police district. It was well known that Teddy Pendergraph was bisexual and he was having relationship with Dr. J‘s wife, but at that time, everybody was even half of Dr J’s team.
@ a lot of us knew about Teddy Pendergraph. Yes, he was a good guy and one time he even had a disagreement with Dr. J when he went to the stadium to confront him. Most of the officers in that area knew about his lifestyle, even though he was a good guy. And we all knew about the wild parties he used to have at Whitney Houston‘s house in Jersey.
He did more of what he could do than he couldn't do!! he got over! He is an icon in his own right! I mean really is it going change people's minds about him! His job was to satisfy the people with his singing! He didn't have to do a lot of moving his voice said it all! If he had a secret let it go! That goes for Barry White! Teddy is gone not forgotten! Let the man rest in peace!🤔🙏❤️
You still didn't tell us the secret! The only secret that you think you telling is about this person transitioned into a woman! He probably didn't know and found out later! And so what it's none of your business! 👎
When God gave us our talents; it’s not just for us. It’s meant to be sheared. The more we share it, the better it becomes. I’m always grateful for him sharing his voice with us. My brother used to play so many of his songs, and I learned them all. I never had a bad day listening to him. Music to soothe our lives. RIP TP🥀🕊️ 🐻
It was his life and he lived it the way he wanted to my favorite songs was some body told me to deliver this message and pass it on too you and don't let this cold world get you down but I do love all his music 5050 love
So many irregularities in the BOTS story. It called Teddy's accidents unfortunate and bad luck knowing his cars were tapered with ( ppl tried to kill him because he preferred to address women in his music,) Hollyweird 🤔. These AI biographies are terrible.
I hope no one your family never pass away can someone says they have secrets about them this is so wrong but Andy and everything goes on in today's world may the Lord have mercy on you😢 sad so sad you are😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 we know a secret don't we😢
C MON MAN It's unfortunate how these devils dishonored our ppl - is it possible that he was a threat to wht Amer because he wasn't not only a talented individual but was a beacon of light to his community - Do a story on Elvis
Teddy will always be one of the greatest singers of his era.RIP
If it was his secret let it stay that way
Let the man REST IN PEACE.
Amen to that 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

He was and still he is my best and favourite singer I have all his Albums

I love Teddy's music i am still listening to it today. There will never be another !!!
Well said
I love Teddy music everyday everytime Teddy didn't give up no matter what he was blessed Rip My Hero ❤ always
Teddy, Barry, Michael, Prince, Luther ,Marvin, Issac, etc. Today I couldn't name 3 with a powerful vocals like the past KING of Soul
Don't forget Frankie Beverly ❤
Gerald and Eddy, brother from bloodstone and the dells.and yes teddy
How can you leave Rick James off that list? He was a crooner and the best Funkster!
@kaddavis9992 there was much more like Jeffery Osborne, R Kelly, and I said etc.
the fact that his mother took him to church is a plus in my mind! She sounds like a Godly mother who was grateful to have a baby boy like Teddy!
One of the greatest singers of all times a true Legend RIP Teddy Pendergraugh 🙏🏽❤️😊🤗
How long have you been fan of Teddy?
?
😅😅😅😅😅@@ChristianWelbury
I love "Turn off the Lights"Thank you Teddy P❤
So what was the secret? Why try to drag this man thru the dirt. He was a great singer and his music lives on.
n....ga wasn't no saint. that's for sure.
They do this to get people to watch their videos negative all for likes disgusting
I know right

Leave this man alone sipteddy
I was deeply saddened by his passing I just pray that he made things right with his maker before he left us🙏💜
Not pray, just hope, because your prayer on that point could not do anything for him any longer. No repentance in the grave, hoping he made things right with God before he left. Those are the music we danced to at nightclub disco in the '80s.
@ yes,thank you I stand correction👍🙏

No need he was great
Nothing they say or write will take away the talent or respect of this legend.
We luv you teddy!! R.I.P. ❤
Teddy was my sister's favorite singer. When I went over her crib she was always playing his music
I remember when it first hit the newspapers the next day, people in the 80s already knew. This person looked like a beautiful woman who could have fooled a lot of men. I am definitely a fan of his from way back with Harold Melvin. I have all his hits and videos. There will never be another Teddy 🧸 ❤️ .
Not only could a fooled men, Straight women Too!!..
When Teddy got into the accident the media says he was 28yrs old & claimed he was 60 when he died. Now you're saying he died at 58yrs. Lord help me.
My mistake. The media says he was 50yrs when he died.
I still love Teddy Pendergrass. He was a magnificent performer. His voice was One of a kind.sometimes his music would soothe my soul when I was in a dark place in My life. I still miss not hearing him on the radio Or TV. But life is fleeting. You have to embrace life while you can. Rest in peace TP.❤
Please let this amazing artist Rest In Heavenly Peace 🙏🏾🕊️🙏🏾🕊️🙏🏾 i never heard anything bad about him till this day me an my girls still lov to go down memory lane with their mother an sing 🙏🏾🙏🏾

I was fortunate enough to see Teddy live in 1980 and he was intoxicatingly beautiful 😍 a voice and style like no other ❤ LEGEND!!!!! *Another love tko* swoooooon...
If there's a secret, isn't that his business ⁉️ let's leave it at that and just continue to jam on his vibe.❤
The music world made him a star, and they killed his career at the sane time.
For those who don't have time to watch the entire video, the secret starts here ➡️ 16:03
Thanks for the heads up. 😎
Brilliant lol 👍🏽👍🏽

Thank you for sharing
This is not beware news
I will always enjoy your music for as long I’m here ❤RIP

One of the best in my book
andy gibb. god bless him. god rest his beautiful beautiful soul.
If he had a secret then why are you Blabbing it for the World to know. Get a life!!!!

Please go away, don't spread hate in this space 😮
