The Songstress:Teena Marie aka LADY T


Noted to be the "IVORY QUEEN OF SOUL" in my eyes you are a True Artist
One that will never be forgotten
Your sultry voice rocked us in the late 70's with hits like "I'm just a sucka fo your love"
And hypnotized us in the 80's with tracks like "I need your lovin & Irons in the fire"
You didn't stop there your rocked us again with "Porteguese love & Square biz"

Of course there are too many to mention but my favorite was De Ja Vu
It was nostalgic to me and I wonder how as a child I connected with you
Growing up to you melodies were a blessing in disguise

Who knew you would pave the way for many that would come after you
Such as Mariah Carey, PINK, Christina Agulierra and many more
All I know is that there will never be anotha like you LADY T

Born Mary Christine Brockert March 5, 1956
You lived a life as an artist only most dream of...
With ups and downs and struggles of addictions in the fast life

Through it all you rose to the top
Battling the demons of your past and facing the promise of your future
Its hard for me to write this because I truly dont know your fate

But I pray that somewhere in between time
You met our Creator and accepted that call on your life
So that now you are resting safe in the Masters arms

My prayer now is that your daughter will have a blessed
And prosperous life never forgetting from whence she came
Knowing that her mom touched the lives of many

To you Lady T I dedicate this tribute
I love you and I thank you for pouring into my life
As you have sown seeds of music life has watered it

And today I am a fairchild product of the music era where you soared
Gone but never forgotten...May you rest in peace
And your legend live on forever... One Love

TEENA MARIE aka LADY T
