A relative says soul singer Teddy Pendergrass has died in suburban Philadelphia at age 59.

The singer's son, Teddy Pendergrass II, says his father died Wednesday at Bryn Mawr Hospital.

Pendergrass' son says his father underwent colon cancer surgery eight months ago and had "a difficult recovery."

The elder Pendergrass was injured in a car accident in 1982. He suffered a spinal cord injury and was paralyzed from the waist down. He spent six months in a hospital but returned to recording the next year with the album "Love Language."

omg

In tribute let us jam.

He was relatively young.  :'(

Although I guess after the accident his health was never quite the same.

Great real soul singer. Great stuff with Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes.

I put together this little collection of my favorite Teddy Pendergrass songs and the songs that sampled them… including Mobb Deep, Little Brother, Ghostface and Keith Murray.   Let’s reminisce and pay respects by enjoying his genius as it lives on through our generation.
