Prayers are in order as Rudolph Isley of the legendary Isley Brothers has passed away at the age of 84 years old.
The Isley Brothers are a family musical group, whose lyrical roots stemmed from church, originally from Cincinnati, Ohio, that began as a vocal trio, The Isley Brothers, consisting of brothers O’Kelly “Kelly” Isley Jr., Rudolph Isley and Ronald Isley in the 1950s. The brothers went on to become 4 time nominated, winning 1 Grammy Award as well as countless achievement awards. At some point Ron ‘Mr. Bigs’ Isley went solo but stayed committed to his family. Then a brother in-law, Chris Jasper, was brought in to form ‘Isley-Jasper-Isley’, still making the Isley brand a family affair.
According to TMZ, the cause of Rudolph Isley’s death is currently unclear, though one person involved tells us it’s believed he suffered a heart attack.
We will be keeping a caravan of prayers up for the family, friend and colleagues of Rudolph Isley.
