    Not sure what is going on , there are fans flocking to Paisley Park and that's where the local news crews and cops etc... are there. They said his plane made an emergency landing on Friday due to him being very ill from the flu, but he played a show later that night at Paisley, but hadn't been seen since. I Knew him and my ex had bought a sound board from him..... we are in shock and very saddened....

    His protege, Vanity, died this year as well. He had to land his plane due to a health issue last week and I did say to myself, "Please don't let him be next like Bowie et al."

    Oh and screw TMZ. They're the reason I don't 100 percent believe yet. If true, RIp.

    On that note, I should be grateful I just subscribed to Tidal now that his music is on there.

    Damn. Wouldn't call myself a huge fan overall but he sure was talented and seemed like a gentle man.

    Agree. Sorry I never got to see him perform. A friend who's a big fan said he was phenomenal live.

    Only one fourth of the through 2016 and we've lost far too many great ones in the world of music. Also add Merle Haggard to the seemingly growing list. He was a gem in the world of music period.....on his first album he played every instrument on that album...He was a superior talent.

    RIPeace

    A masterfully talented multi-instrumentalist. He will be missed, but at least his music will live on. RIP, Prince.

    I just posted that - Prince was on my bucket list too. People I know who saw him live said he was unbelievable. Breaks my heart.
