Known as the Queen of Rock and Roll, Turner rose to fame as part of a duo with her then-husband, Ike Turner.
In the 1970s, she broke away to go solo and, by 1984, her multi-platinum album Private Dancer was a global hit and Turner had cemented herself as a household name.
Turner’s path to success has been described as “one of the greatest comebacks in music history”, as she went on to win 12 Grammy Awards, which include eight competitive awards, three Grammy Hall of Fame awards, and a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.
Culturally, Turner also had a significant impact, being the first Black woman to be on the cover of Rolling Stone.
Rolling Stone also ranked her among the “100 Greatest Artists of All Time” and the “100 Greatest Singers of All Time”.
