Prince Died

Earlier this week, he was rushed to hospital after his plane had made an emergency landing. He was reported to have light injuries and was released really quickly. The only reports following his short hospital visit mentioned that he was suffering from a bad flu for weeks.

This morning, at 9.45am local time, emergency services were called to Paisley Park where Prince was found non-responsive. Later, he was declared dead. An investigation should shed more light on what led to his death exactly.

Musical Genius

Prince has been of great influence to music ever since his breakthrough in the 70s. Hits include “Purple Rain”, “Little Red Corvette”, “Kiss” and “Diamonds and Pearls”. Most of his music was sexually charged, giving him the nickname “His Royal Badness”. He was known to push the boundaries between men and woman, wearing heels and make up himself and his songwriting skills launched many careers of others. As a huge inspiration to many, his legacy will always live on, but he will always be missed.
