It takes a lot of talent to hit a woman.

It's not like he stole a few things here and there. It's not like he bad-mouthed people. HE BEAT A WOMAN. I'm sure if this was someone else, there'd be a different kind of response in here.

Interesting. He has allegedly spent decades trying to live those allegations down.

He has now passed away at the age of 76. He was a talented man who launched the career of Tina Turner, as well as helped the careers of others. Rest in peace, again.

Ike was a terrible human being who just happened to be a music talent. Before he married Tina, he had already been married and had children. Once he started to use drugs, he beat Tina savagly.

He openly cheated with other women: had a baby with one Ikette, who he later married, then married another Ikette.

He was in jail 11 times, mainly for drug-related incidents and was unable to attend the induction ceremonies for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Why? Because he was in jail.

I happen to have a few issues with people like this. Had he not had money from entertainment, I'm sure all of his wives and offspring would have been living in shelters.

If you think he is God, well I hate to see how you treat your women.
