Ike Turner, the ultimate wife batterer… can’t listen to anything by him, because of it. Now… if Tina had knocked him out with a blunt object, broke the arm he punched her up with… just for the theatrics of it… no other reason other than that, called the police to come get him, and taken out an injunction against his sorry ass, I would probably be more prone to admire her, but nah… I can’t.
Why are the ‘strongest/loudest’ women, the ones that have no backbone, psh!
You’re right. But each of us have to draw our own individual lines in regard to what recording artists do that might prompt us never to listen to anything that they record ever again.
Well… I’m not a feminist or a survivor of domestic abuse or have even ever been abused by anyone… so for me, my ‘contempt’ for such people is simply based in morality.
