Known as one of the greatest female rock singers of her time, Turner initially found fame singing songs such as "River Deep, Mountain High" and "Proud Mary" in the ‘60s alongside her ex-husband Ike Turner.

After their marriage dissolved in 1978, Turner found even more success in her career as a solo artist in the ‘80s.

Turner was legendary for her high-energy performances. She dominated the airwaves with a robust repertoire of hits, including "The Best," "Private Dancer," "What's Love Got to Do With It" and more.

Throughout her career Turner has won eight Grammy Awards. She has also been inducted twice into the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame, first alongside her ex-husband in 1991 and again in 2021 as a solo artist.

At the time of her induction, the Hall of Fame noted Turner "expanded the once-limited idea of how a Black woman could conquer a stage and be both a powerhouse and a multidimensional being,” according to the BBC.

Turner's charisma, powerful vocals and energetic stage performances have inspired artists including Mick Jagger, Beyonce, Janet Jackson and Rihanna.
