The Temps had high standards before they signed with Motown. Thus, they adapted well to Motown's high standards...at first. They eventually discovered that Motown wanted too much control over them. The Temps cherished their artistic autonomy and they became chafed by Motown controlling that aforementioned autonomy.

The narrator confuses Ruth Pointer and Brenda Edwards. He was only married to Ruth for one year. The troubled marriage and allegations of abuse were while married to his wife Brenda.

The fact that Otis is the only one left to tell the stories 🙄😒 We still aint came to see him either 💯😂😂

@ontheroadhome4796 3 ай бұрын

Ok, now this AI or whomever this voice telling the information is always getting things WRONG. Paul Williams was never a drinker until he found out that he had a spot one of his internal organs and he was dealing with Siclecell anemia. He was I'll and became depressed which is when he began drinking. The drinking lead to having issues during performing with the group so he was kind of put on a hiatus for a period of time, he continued to get paid by the group regardless of the circumstances of him not being able to perform. Otis always saw to it that Paul was still paid. The fact that he was not working with the group sent him into a further downward spiral. The gun that he was shot with was not in his hand. You want to tell a story, then get your facts straight. And do yourself a favor stop repeating yourself over and over again.

Men get along better than _WOMEN._ I fixed it for you. Why do you call Women _females_ and not call men _Males?_ It makes it seem like _Women_ are a completely different species. Can you imagine addressing a crowd and saying, "Females and Gentlemen?" I'm really curious and would like to understand the point. I hear it and see it on sm so much it's crazy.

David Ruffin is the man any young man or man period would desire to be like, despite his drug troubles he in my opinion was and is a musical genius and in a way great individual, who was just very troubled by his demons. I say REST in PEACE David Ruffin, miss you bru. 😄😌
