BOBBY WOMACK SCANDAL:

It was bad enough that Bobby Womack (Sam Cooke's protege) married Cooke's widow (Barbara) three months after his death 'But' what Womack reveals in his new autobiography, "Midnight Mover," is even more disturbing. During the marriage, Womack was creeping into his stepdaughter's (Linda's) room at night and having sex with her until Barbara caught him and held a gun against his head. She told him to get the fu** out of her house. Womack ran to the garage, Barbara followed and shot at him, the bullet grazed his scalp. This is the reason for their divorce in 1970. Linda would marry Bobby's brother and she would never speak to her mother again.

 
Here's more about what Sam's brothers did to Bobby after he married Barbara Cooke:

Bobby Womack admits in his autobiography "Midnight Mover," that Sam Cooke's family had a real problem with him marrying Sam's widow (Barbara). Especially, Sam's brother, Charlie. He told Womack, shortly after the marriage, "Man, anybody else could have married Sam's wife, but you. Sam loved you, man." If you ever come to Chicago...The threat was left hanging in the air but I knew what it meant.

I figured if Charlie was going to do something, I wanted to get it over and done with. Barbara and I flew to Chicago. We checked into the 'Roberts Motel,' and I called Charlie. I told him, 'I'm here. We're in 2112.' In the motel room, Barbara busied herself loading bullets into a pistol. Barbara had a mean streak in her.

Charlie showed up with his two brothers David and L.C. I opened the door and Charlie punched me. He beat me so bad-my whole head swelled up like a melon. My teeth came through my lip. He beat me unconscious. He even broke my jaw. Barbara came out of the bathroom screaming.

She made a grab for the gun, she pointed it and pulled the trigger. It just clicked (I had removed the bullets while she was in the bathroom, before our guests arrived). Charlie and his brothers left. The cops were called, when they arrived and saw my condition, they said Charlie would do time. They arrested him later that evening but I declined to press charges. He was released and Barbara and I went on with our lives.
 
More Womack in-breeding:

Both Cecil Womack (the same guy that married LINDA COOKE) and Curtis Womack fucked and married Mary Wells (the famous MOTOWN star).

Cecil and Mary were married for ten years (1967-77) while Curtis married her later on and were estranged when Mary died in 1992. And she had babies with both brothers too
 
RIP to Bobby a great artist but yea dude was kinda a greasy nigga for fucking Sam Cooke's old lady and fucking his daughter.
 
Damn RIP


My interest the samples that artist use drew me to his music even tho it was "before my time". A lot of Hip Hop/r&b artist sampled this dudes original work.
 
Man why y'all want to bring up dirt on the man...Yeah that's some cold blooded shit he done to Sam Cooke but he had to live with that treachery.

RIP Bobby Womack
