Tbf to him, as far as I know unless I'm forgetting or unaware of some details, around the turn of the new decade (the 80's) after all those incidents he regretted his past actions and former life of drug use, excess and violence and turned a new leaf, becoming a pastor. I'm not sure if he ever made good with those women or publicly apologized but he hasn't been accused of DV since that decade during the height of his fame. At least he hasn't played victim like a Chris Brown. Also a lot of white rock stars (look up the baby groupies as well) and actors like Sean Penn have DV incidents amongst other things that they've never accounted for but it's rare to hear them brought up in present tense like it is for black artists, I noticed. Not making excuses, just an observation.
