Tammi and Marvin both suffered in their childhoods maybe that’s why they had that trauma bond . Extremely talented humans .. Now both in peace … Thank you for the music 🎶
The worst part of being exposed to sex too early is that it either makes you promiscuous or shutdown. Either way, you are forever changed and it kills the person you could’ve been. It’s a crime that so many families just ignored sexual abuse in the home or relative homes and expect girls to just get over it or worse, blamed them for it. When you know a crime has been committed against you and no one gets punished, it ruins your self esteem.
I tell you that a lot of people will have a lot to answer to the Lord Jesus Christ the righteous on the day of judgement and you can't lie to the heavenly master he sees and knows all you have done while you were on earth
After her death ,Marvin Gaye did not record any music for five years. I read accounts that James Brown and David Ruffin were abusive to her. Tammi and Marvin will always be the greatest duet of all time. I have been listening to Motown music coming out of the womb! 😊. I was a child at the time and was and is always happy to hear the music of Motown. My sister gifted me a 4 CD set called Hitsville USA ,Christmas 2003. One of the best gifts she's ever given me!😆😆😆😆
Marvin gay went into a state of depression because the whole motown sat around and watched her get beat up by 2 men! And her mom gave her to Barry Gordy and said PLEASE TAKE CARE OF MY BABY, SHE ALREADY BEEN THROUGH TRAUMA. THEY PROMISED HER MOTHER THAT THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF THAT MINOR CHILD. THEN THEY SENT HER HOME IN A BODY BAG!!!!!!!
Tammi was the love of Marvin Gaye’s life It’s so sad they never got the chance to be together due to so many obstacles in their way May God Bless the both of them in Heaven 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Her beauty and light was too much for insecure and inferior men, so they tried to beat it out of her to break her spirit. Envious of her enchanting femininity. Her story is heart-wrenching and the industry is not for the pure of heart. 💔💜
Absolutely! She was a rare breed. Unfortunately the men she was involved with were broken, insecure, and immature. They could not handle someone with that kind of light. May God continue to allow her to rest well 🙏🏽💐
As expected, only women commenting with this "Insecure" nonsense. They were the ones who were better known than she was! They were simply abusive men. She was promiscuous and was drawn to them by their money and fame. I am sure those same men were with less famous women and did the same - abused them.
I love me some Tammi Terrell her looks, her voice! She was REMARKABLY BEAUTIFUL! She passed tooo young!! Her & Marvin Gaye the Pioneers of A Woman & Man Singing Duo!! 👫🎤🎤
Old soul. Older men always took advantage of little girls. If u go back to the 50's u will find our grandparents and great grandparents had their first child by older men!!!!!! They're was no such LAW AS UNDER AGED. YOU WERE RAISED TO BE A WIFE. You were groomed to cook clean and have babies.
Tammi and Marvin was a match made in heaven. They are together again in heaven. I'll never forget the day she died the world lost a beautiful and talented gifted young lady she was Marvin's world.
@jaquaveonandress649 I don't know. What I do know is that Marvin's lifestyle did not portray him as a born-again Christian. He was heavily into drugs, and he beat up his father, and his father shot him in self-defense. In terms of Tammy, I was too young and don't remember her. Hopefully, she repented before her death.
I was a very young lad when I first learned of Tammi Terrel. My mother had an album of her and Marvin Gaye featuring "Ain't No Mountain High Enough." I was infatuated with her beautiful voice and lovely face from then on. I was saddened upon hearing her demise. RIP Tammi
Such a gorgeous, lovely, GOD gifted, talented, intelligent treasure!!!!!! Tami/Marvin was Motown!!!!! We all loved Ms. Terell/Motown!! Sleep in peace Ms. Terell!!!!
When I listen to her voice, it sends chills down my spine, because she was and is very talented. Matched by her beauty, she is a true Motown legend. May Tammi continue to rest in peace.
Not just a beautiful lady and talented singer but was intelligent as well. Enrolled as a Pre Med Student at the University of Pennsylvania she was in her second year when she left to pursue musical interests…
With a voice and beauty she was God's gift to man. She sang and sang. Her smile could calm the beast in any man. She is missed but she lives on in memory. May the Supreme Power in whom we pray... be as pleased with her soul and we were with her presence.
Very beautiful and talented. I was 10 years old when she died. I cried because I loved her music and her duet with Marvin Gaye. They are singing in Heaven.
To hear more details of her life & what she brought to the music industry is bittersweet. Tammi Terrell's life isn't to be mourned but celebrated as the narrator mentioned. Goals any of us set can be achieved when faced with multiple adversities. #celebration_of_legacy💐♥
Tammi was such a beautiful woman who had to grow up very fast and it was so unfortunate that she had to endure so much so young ❤😢😢😢 Rest in peace to such a talented soul🎼
Beautiful lady! Always thought and still believe today she and Marvin were and still are the best Duo’s. Both were very beautiful and talented I wish someone would have taken her illness seriously and taken care of her If only the treatment was advanced back then she would be here 💐🙏🏽
The rumor was that David Ruffin hit Tammi in the head with a hammer. He said "No. I wouldn't do that. I'm not crazy. It was a motorcycle helmet". Whata POS
A kid when she and Marvin had their heyday, even as a kid I knew they had something special, there hasn't been a duo like them since, so sad she had to suffer the way she did, the music she and Marvin made will last for eternity...
Tammi is and was a Beautiful lady that smile of hers is just one of a kind, When I look at that video with her and Marvin ain't no mountain high enough I just look at her expressions while she's singing I said look at that, That's a lady right there❤.
James Brown and David Ruffin Didn't Deserve her. I Hear She was just as Beautiful on the Inside as She was on the Outside. May God Rest Her Soul and Give Her Eternal Peace. Rest On Ms. Tammy.
There was actually another man, an executive/song writer for Motown that she was allegedly dating after David & he was just as abusive as the rest. It was said that one night they had a disagreement at a show, & he beat her something wicked in a dressing room & proceeded to throw a chair at her in the heat of the moment, that chair was metal & it ended up hitting her in the head. That was the beginning of the end of Tammi, because the executive was a married man very lil is said about him other than he worked very closely with Gordy!
Yeah Tammy had a hard time with relationship's and it kinda messed her up she was a sweet girl and very talented singer she had to fight her way through this life she was so pretty and talented she's deeply missed but never forgotten she is a ⭐
I love the part at 11:21 where she reaches and grabs his hand. You can see the connection between them that you only have from a soul mate that isn't always necessarily a romantic one. From what my father told me Marvin was a choir boy prior to her passing. It changed him and put his personal life in a downward spiral. He was never the same. I hope they're together now.
I think they were platonic friends and not sexually attracted to each other for whatever reasons Marvin was weird and effeminate and Tammi liked rough very masculine men
Whoever is doing these videos is great! Such a different view and respect given to the lives of these people even in the negativity. Hearing about her having headaches most of her life, it's a shame she got so used to them that she never went to get a full diagnosis. The tumor had probably grown since childhood. And her going from guy to guy is a symptom of her abuse and then being in that industry. She did a lot in her short years, except sadly never got herself healed physically or emotionally until it all crashed before the age of 25.😔
It's now known that domestic violence can cause traumatic brain injuries or TBI because of repeated physical beatings, mostly in the head. Tammi's story fits the profile of someone with TBI, which causes a devastating chain reaction of other health issues. TBI is not just athletes or accident victims, but anyone who suffered severe and/or numerous blows to the head is vulnerable.
Awwww thank you for this one I will forever love Tammy Terrell ❤ her story was so tragic she die so young and the men that were in her life accept marvin gaye were so dammm horrible in so many ways! Her voice & beauty will never die even today iam a supporter of Tammmy❤ I love this channel and your voice so lovely
Thank you for this very heart warming, wonderful and sometimes heart breaking story of such a beautiful, and sweet extremely gifted young woman ,may she rest in peace ,love and remembrance.
Tammi was a beautiful soul. Imagine she would have been 79 years old now, had she lived. Her partnership with Marvin was one of the best pairings that has been unmatched to this day. Both of their lives were too short lived, but I am so glad that we had them for the period of time that we did. Rest in peace Beautiful souls. You are both loved and missed forever ❤
James Brown saw his mother being tragically abused by his father, according to the movie on his life. The mother walked down a long dirt road as she was forced to leave young James behind ( with nothing but a raggedy suitcase of clothing), after suffering years of abuse. Young James was calling out to his mother, but she was told she had better not even look back... according to the movie. Of course this is no excuse for his constant physical abuse of women.
Unless there is psychological intervention, men that grew up in homes of domestic violence , usually grow up to be abusive. It's perpetual for generations.
I think there is a correlation between being beaten, especially on your head, that can cause brain tumors. My grandmother died of a benign brain tumor the day before her 49th birthday. She was abused most of her life with my grandfather beating her horribly. She had headaches, too, and fainting spells. Had the quack she was seeing diagnosed her properly, she'd likely be alive today.
I loved her duets with Marvin Listen to them all the time Marvin never got over her death Both were so talented and left a great void on the history of music. God bless their memory
I've always wondered why? Women like this with a heart warm and passionate had problems with men that abused them what I've discovered men who had abuse and other issues dealt with them and sought help with it so in order to deal they took their pain out of them I realize we all have issues that we deal with daily Tammie shouldn't have gone through such treatment but this is the way of the world even today I've found out when you take them to the Lord and work on them with His help you can overcome anything I loved seeing Marvin and Tammie singing together they song great hits together I thought her and Marvin looked great together but later on I found out he had issues as well she was a song bird to me and Marvin had a great voice as well those memories of them two will forever be in my heart they are truly missed ❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😢

I heard this story about Tammi Terrell. She was beautiful . The industry dogged her out. She was young and naive. Her father did not protect her ….and shame on James Brown for abusing her the way he did. There is no truth she was promiscuous after being raped.
I absolutely 💯% loved her voice especially her duets with Marvin Gaye. I asked my Mother several years back what became of her. She told me that she died from a brain tumor. But I had read a lot about her being constantly abused by men. They wanted to control her because of her phenomenal beauty & talented. Its as if they wanted to posess her... Like a prized possession but hated her for the very attributes that she held. That's so sick and toxic 😪
She was my first crush as a young man in high school back in the 60's. Oddly, to this day, whenever I hear her sing or see that smile I flash right back to my youth.
It's extremely distasteful to hear stories about how these women back in the day was treated. Whatever the psychology behind her choosing to be promiscuous, doesn't readily make her a punching bag or some kind of door mat to walk on. It's interesting to hear folk come up with reasoning for others behavior, yet you will *never hear *most come up with *good solutions that will aid with that which they're *actually going through.
@ebonyharris5412 whether you feel I misunderstood or not is irrelevant. As what I said goes beyond whatever you're talking about. Try that quality of psychology elsewhere.
@Back TO THE 60s *THE WAY YOU TOLD TAMMI'S( TOMMIE'S) STORY WAS SO PERFECTLY DONE. EVERY SYLLABLE AND WORD TOLD WITH THOUGHT , SENSITIVITY , AND IN DEPTH. THE WAY YOU SHARED THE WAY THAT BABY WAS BRUTALIZED AT 11 AND FORCED TO BE A LITTLE GIRL STRIPPED OF HER GOD GIVEN INNOCENCE AND FORCED TO CARRY A GROWN WOMAN'S IMPOSSIBLE BURDEN WAS/ IS SO NECESSARY AND HELPS TO BRING WISDOM TO GIRLS, WOMEN TODAY. THANK YOU FOR EVEN BLASTING THE LIGHT OF TRUTH OF THE CATASTROPHIC DAMAGE SWEEPING SUCH TRAUMAS AND HUMAN VIOLATIONS UNDER THE RUG CAN DO. EVERYONE EVERYWHERE, NEVER EVER KEEP ABUSE A SECRET. TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN TOPS AND SEEK JUSTICE. LET EVERYONE KNOW WHO THE MONSTERS ARE SO ANOTHER PERSON WILL BE SPARED. I PRAY SHE'S RESTING IN HEAVENLY PEACE WITH JESUS* *THANK YOU FOR TELLING HER STORY. NEW SUBBIE*
Her and Marvin Gaye together was magic there has never been another duo like it - the music is beautiful and timeless “ain’t nothing like the real thing” such a beautiful song
What a short, hard life filled with tragedy that she was able to consistently overcome and blossom! So extremely talented and loving! RIP Tammi and continue to sing and have joy in heaven!
She was definitely a one of a kind vocal artist. It’s always a heartbreak when the beloved leave this realm so early. Maybe she and Marvin can sing a duet in the Heavens.
James Brown put Tammi in the hospital more than once, and every time with broken bones. The abuse from both Brown and Ruffin were thought to maybe have contributed to her brain tumor.
Miss Tammi Terrel was one of favorite singers the stories I’ve heard of her makes me mad and sad to know someone could treat this beautiful queen badly may god bless you my queen I know you’re in heaven

They should do a movie on her. Taraji p. Henson would be perfect to play her. May she rest in peace 🕊️
Yes indeed
Taraji is perfect choice!!!
Christie Michelle looks more like Tammy. Chrisette the phone changed my correct spelling.
Taraji or Tamala Jones
@@lepoetress Yelp forgot about Tamala Jones. Another good choice 👍🏽
I like that her mother allowed only Marvin Gaye to attended her funeral because Marvin really cared about Tammi.
That's real. I think he really loved that lady man
It was rumored that he sacrificed her.
Smokey Robinson was also allowed to attend. David Ruffin was allowed to visit her before she lasped into her coma.
@@daphneytennard3267If so, I guess that's why he felt so guilty about her death.

Actually it's unfortunately true. It happens. After a brutal rape some women become promiscuous, others asexual
Tammi was young and hot don't kid yourself fam... most young sisters are at that age...
Don't forget David Ruffin also played a role in her abuse.
It's a known fact that this could be an outcome and was for her so stay and you clearly don't know shit
@@darkmanxxx8810did you overlook the reason why or just wanna talk shit about a woman. She wasn't like that for nothing!
Miss Tammi those around her could hear her always humming/singing to herself.
She was a beauty and a brain and top singer.
Such a sad story.
She Is a Very Rare Talent Singer of all
I absolutely 💯% loved her voice especially her duets with Marvin Gaye. I asked my Mother several years back what became of her. She told me that she died from a brain tumor. But I had read a lot about her being constantly abused by men. They wanted to control her because of her phenomenal beauty & talented. Its as if they wanted to posess her... Like a prized possession but hated her for the very attributes that she held. That's so sick and toxic 😪
She was my first crush as a young man in high school back in the 60's. Oddly, to this day, whenever I hear her sing or see that smile I flash right back to my youth.
So sad. She was a beautiful girl with an incredible voice.
Beautiful Lovely Lady Tammi Terrell.
It's extremely distasteful to hear stories about how these women back in the day was treated. Whatever the psychology behind her choosing to be promiscuous, doesn't readily make her a punching bag or some kind of door mat to walk on. It's interesting to hear folk come up with reasoning for others behavior, yet you will *never hear *most come up with *good solutions that will aid with that which they're *actually going through.
Watch till the end
Nobody said she deserved to be abused. This is an attempt to explain her psychology so that she can be better understood.
She was clearly molested a child...SMFH
You clearly misunderstood because that portion was about her thought process.. Don't speak on someone else speaking wrong while being wrong
@ebonyharris5412 whether you feel I misunderstood or not is irrelevant. As what I said goes beyond whatever you're talking about. Try that quality of psychology elsewhere.
I cringe when people speak fondly of James Brown
I find it hard, as I love his music...
He was a thug
James Brown self destructs ... th-cam.com/video/ZGPAOZ_PTYM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=VHWHJkABzlm3z9ul
Taraji p Hanson would have been great playing Tammi
Wow! You are soooo right, the face and complexion is spot on!!
Terell and Gaye were one of the greatest duos since Astaire and Rogers. Total magic.
I was in total love with Tammi Terell.
Damn I almost cried watching this she literally went through hell but now she’s in heaven rest in peace
Excellent video 🙌🏾

@Back TO THE 60s *THE WAY YOU TOLD TAMMI'S( TOMMIE'S) STORY WAS SO PERFECTLY DONE. EVERY SYLLABLE AND WORD TOLD WITH THOUGHT , SENSITIVITY , AND IN DEPTH. THE WAY YOU SHARED THE WAY THAT BABY WAS BRUTALIZED AT 11 AND FORCED TO BE A LITTLE GIRL STRIPPED OF HER GOD GIVEN INNOCENCE AND FORCED TO CARRY A GROWN WOMAN'S IMPOSSIBLE BURDEN WAS/ IS SO NECESSARY AND HELPS TO BRING WISDOM TO GIRLS, WOMEN TODAY. THANK YOU FOR EVEN BLASTING THE LIGHT OF TRUTH OF THE CATASTROPHIC DAMAGE SWEEPING SUCH TRAUMAS AND HUMAN VIOLATIONS UNDER THE RUG CAN DO. EVERYONE EVERYWHERE, NEVER EVER KEEP ABUSE A SECRET. TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN TOPS AND SEEK JUSTICE. LET EVERYONE KNOW WHO THE MONSTERS ARE SO ANOTHER PERSON WILL BE SPARED. I PRAY SHE'S RESTING IN HEAVENLY PEACE WITH JESUS*
*THANK YOU FOR TELLING HER STORY. NEW SUBBIE*
Powerful!
Thank you so much for this!🙏
We pray and hope we leave this world in a better state. Safe for our kids and those that come after us.
She was beautiful rest in paradise queen
I love to hear Tammy sing.
Her and Marvin Gaye together was magic there has never been another duo like it - the music is beautiful and timeless “ain’t nothing like the real thing” such a beautiful song
What a short, hard life filled with tragedy that she was able to consistently overcome and blossom! So extremely talented and loving! RIP Tammi and continue to sing and have joy in heaven!
Eternal peace
I was very young when she died and even at that young age...i remember how the sense of loss 😔...
Poor Tammi, she went through hell. I read her Sisters Book. My Sister Tommie
Rest in peace to TAMMI and MARVIN 🙏🙏🕊🕊🦋🦋🌈🌈☮️☮️☯️☯️.HOPEFULLY TOGETHER FOR ETERNITY AMEN.GODBLESS THEM AMEN.🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
She still on my play list rest in peace wonderful one 😢😊😂
Tammy was a beautiful soul but things happen in life. ❤you are so missed gone to soon ❤RIP
I was talking to my Dad he told she was my cousin. I have so much respect for her music .she was a great singer gone to soon
😊
We gone ignore da fact James brown was 29 n she was 16, 17 🤣
We wore black armbands for a week when she died. And it’s true, Marvin was never the same again after Tammi .
She was definitely a one of a kind vocal artist. It’s always a heartbreak when the beloved leave this realm so early. Maybe she and Marvin can sing a duet in the Heavens.
It was also rumored that James Brown was one the abuser 😢
I read the same thing. I believe the book was a biography about James Brown. Sad.
DAVID RUDFIN OF THE TEMPTATIONS ,HE ABUSED HER ALSO.
Yes that’s true it was on Unsung
THE NARRATION MENTIONED JAMES BROWN'S ALLEGED MISTREATMENT OF HER. HE WAS KNOWN TO BE CONTROLLING.
@@oldwarriorlife Short ugly men + pretty women = napoleon complex = insecurity + abusive behaviour.
My favorite singer duo's Marvin Gaye and Tammy Terrell then baby face and Toni Braxton then Mathis and Ms Williams
James Brown put Tammi in the hospital more than once, and every time with broken bones. The abuse from both Brown and Ruffin were thought to maybe have contributed to her brain tumor.
James Brown self destructs..
