Prince dead at 57

[oldpink]

Matt Drudge made his entire page's writing in purple in honor of the man.
Here's my screengrab of it:

Great artist.

 

[Kutnupe14]

Great artist.

He was...blended funk, big hair rock, and soul seamlessly.

The Onion knocks one out of the park.

NSFW language.

Nation Too Sad To **** Even Though It’s What Prince Would Have Wanted

There's about a 5% success rate with CPR

BS...It always works in the movies....

Hence the shock on the faces when we tell them their loved one did not survive

I am glad to be one of the 5%! I would not be here if it wasn't done on me.

Fox just announce Prince was treated for a drug OD days before his death. :-(

I won't discount anything just yet... but multiple source stated flu last week.
57... drug od. Took him that long...

Chyna (wrestler/playboy) was found dead today as well.... Drugs was the word.

If it is not true it was a pretty unkind thing to say. I guess the info was leaked from a hospital employee.

Coincidence? I think not!

Well rock and roll, drugs... goes hand in hand.
39 albums in 37 years? Not so much. yeah, he'd been long gone at album 10... Keith moon, janice joplin, jimi hendrix, anyone?
But surely... he od'd. And Richard Wright also. And next week will be Neil Peart. **** happens.
Meanwhile.... Keith Richards lives on. Keep on rockin' in the free world!

I'm pretty sure he embalmed himself decades ago.

Richard Wright?
I can only assume you were being facetious.
Rick dabbled in drugs at one time, especially up to the point that it's rumored he was kicked out of Pink Floyd in 1979 because it was interfering with his contributions to the band at that time, but Rick died from lung cancer...period.

If true, I wonder if it's s "legit" overdose, as in from something illegal, rather than an accidental overdose on meds prescribed to him.
For instance, despite his rep, Hendrix OD on sleeping meds, not knowing that English sleeping pills were way more potent than American pills.

For the old guys, I guess we finally get to find out if Prince and Morris Day were the same person.

"How's the family?"

God rest your soul, Prince.
