So many disrespectful comments. For Millions of People around The World Rick James was The Truth. For Millions of People around the World Tenna was the TRUTH 🙏🏽 Legendary Performance because these 2 people are Legands when they stand alone. Put those 2 legends together and you received a Legendary Performance🙏🏽💙🙏🏽
I don’t care how high they were…this will ALWAYS be My Favorite Performance by them. 😢😢 Who knew it would be Their Last. 😢😢😢 That’s what makes this Performance 🎭 Soooo ICONIC!!! R.I.P. 🕊️🕊️🕊️ To The Both Of Em🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 I really do Miss The Legends and their Legendary Music 🎼
She was running and singing in heels while emphasizing how she wasn't very nice, echoing Rick's statement, " You were cold as ice." It was an example of call and response used in Black culture and religious practice for interaction and emphasis. Teena Marie, Lady T, was an afcionado of Black culture - someone who truly appreciated and understood its meaning, history, and application, unlike any other white person ever. That's why she was called the Ivory Queen, and it was a well-deserved title ❤.
Rick James (Fire) & Teena Marie (Desire), musical soulmates as well as best friends, was (and still very much are) a musical match made in heaven. The unique chemistry, passion, and emotions they invoked on this legendary love ballad (as well as several other duets that they did throughout their respective careers) was simply incredible!!!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful moment in history. Two legends are now gone, and the world will never be the same because of their contributions, impact, and influence to music and cultural history ❤.
She sounded good compared to Rick as he no longer had his voice at the time. Both were talented musicians in their prime and I don’t think you could do any better just saying 😂
They're both legends- there's no denying that- but they sounded bad in this performance. Hell, Rick sounded so horrible that he made Teena sound great (in reality their voices are diminishing, Rick's, faster than Teena's). Honestly, though, in this video, (as a singer) i believe that Teena couldnt find the right pitch or key to sing in because they were either ahead or behind the tempo of the music (off-beat). If she would've found it, trust, the vocals in this performance would've been a whole lot better. With that being said, I wouldnt trade this performance for anything. The vibes are still there and I enjoyed the performance, regardless. I mean, cmon; it's Rick James and Lady T.🎉🎉 @angc1456
yall see how he tried to grab her boobs at the end ? 😂😂 R.I.P rick!! and teena theyre both great artist and icons nobody does it like either one of them
That’s what decades of hard partying & not taking care of yourself will do to your voice, truly sad cause the original studio recording is one of the greatest duet performances in this history of music
Well, yeah. Rick didn't even live long after this so it's crazy it was this decent. I've heard worse from great singers. Even Whitney near the end of her life was said to be bombing at concerts.
❤ the Bible says wagges of sin is death But the gift of God is eternal life though Jesus The Bible says first John 3 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son That who so ever believes in him should not perish But have ever lasting life 🎁 Jesus takes no joy in the death of the wicked man That they would come to repentance Jesus said where the worms die not And the fire never quiches
The cringiest performance I’ve ever witnessed, I love Teena and Rick- so it’s nothing personal. Lady Tee was so underrated, her entire catalog is 🔥 🔥 🔥
The best singing in the world wow Teena an Rick beautiful couple rip stands for replacement isn’t possible never with our legends king an queen Rick and Teena Marie 💜❤️💜🩷🐝🐝🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲🇺🇸🇺🇸🇳🇬🇳🇬🇨🇦🇨🇦🇭🇹🇭🇹🙏👑👑👑😘😘😘🐝🐝🐝🐝
The Man & Woman Who Saved Motown In The 80's. R.I.P..
Teena Marie held him down ..his voice was gone for all them drugs but slick Rick was the man
Teena Marie can't sing.
My aunt and uncle getting drunk at the cookout and still killing it… rip to both Teena Marie and Rick James ❤

When she did that ah ah ah ah bit I just started laughing! It was like something out of a spoof

Masterpiece!!!!!!!!!
This performance brings tears to my eyes. So many greats are gone. Young artists today don't have the spirit inside their souls like the OG's.
This performance made me cry it was so good to see Rick and Teena together again 😊😊
“TooOOK mealittle higher Beyohhhnsay 🤣” Sing Tina!
Rip to them❤🙏🏽

Beautiful performance
When your mom and dad drunk at the cookout mad at each other

Teena almost knocked the hell out that lady in the white and that’s why the other lady sat down 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 classic ❤
Un instant exceptionnel.
1:57 take me a little higher Beyoncé lol
Weird that. Teena stood in a light not many can match. Yet she called out Beyonce 20 Years Ago 😮
WOW
And this man never won a Grammy are we seriously given $hot about the Grammys anymore
This is gonna be me and my wife at our kids wedding after we got drunk
Great live
RIP Rick and Teena🙏🏿
“ He took me a little higher Beyoncé “
Baby TEENA was on the clock working
BOTH THEIR VOICES WERE GONE AT THAT POINT…..STILL GOTTA LOVE EM THO!!!
Teena def still had her voice
Not Teena lmao. Rick was shot tho
You're tone deaf. Teena's voice is pristine clear & present
Bless this mess. 🙏🏾✨
I’m SCREAMING 😂
❤
WE ALL WILL GET OLD SOMEDAY! DONT be so quick to judge!!!
Terrence Howard as Rick James in a biopic movie...I'm calling it now
0:13 😳🤯🤯😲
Y’all didn’t include the speech! I’m upset!
yall see how he tried to grab her boobs at the end ? 😂😂 R.I.P rick!! and teena theyre both great artist and icons nobody does it like either one of them
One of the most powerful songs ever, but this performance is cringey😫
They was high than a Mf 😂
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Agreed loved the moment though….. iconic they were❤
That’s what decades of hard partying & not taking care of yourself will do to your voice, truly sad cause the original studio recording is one of the greatest duet performances in this history of music
Well, yeah. Rick didn't even live long after this so it's crazy it was this decent. I've heard worse from great singers. Even Whitney near the end of her life was said to be bombing at concerts.
The fact they did not know each other 😅
❤❤😂
That song reminds me of Martin and Gina.
Is this Alia Rose? Teena's daughter? I don't remember her having tattoos.
Take me a little higher Beyoncé 😂😂😂
❤ the Bible says wagges of sin is death But the gift of God is eternal life though Jesus
The Bible says first John 3 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son That who so ever believes in him should not perish But have ever lasting life 🎁
Jesus takes no joy in the death of the wicked man
That they would come to repentance
Jesus said where the worms die not And the fire never quiches
The cringiest performance I’ve ever witnessed, I love Teena and Rick- so it’s nothing personal. Lady Tee was so underrated, her entire catalog is 🔥 🔥 🔥
😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This was an awful performance! This was too much ad-lib!😮
Cocaine is a helluva a drug
Horrible performance 😢
Yeah I have to agree
😂
Rick sounded terrible and I think Teena was trying to carry the whole thing through but she was just trying too hard.
I don’t find this performance cringey at all. They got a standing ovation live performing is not about perfection but impacting your audience
Sounds like someone is getting stabbed to death
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@patriciapitts3505 🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmao!
The best singing in the world wow Teena an Rick beautiful couple rip stands for replacement isn’t possible never with our legends king an queen Rick and Teena Marie 💜❤️💜🩷🐝🐝🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲🇺🇸🇺🇸🇳🇬🇳🇬🇨🇦🇨🇦🇭🇹🇭🇹🙏👑👑👑😘😘😘🐝🐝🐝🐝
