Music legend Prince was found dead at his home in Minnesota today, his death was very likely caused by complications from the flu. he created hits like " Purple Rain " 1999" Little Red Corvette' Raspberry Beret' and when Doves Cry, and wrote songs for others like Sheena Easton, Steve Nicks, and Sinead O'Connor, her hit " Nothing compares 2 U' was a cover of a Prince song. A brilliant guitar player and singer, he was one of the 3 biggest stars of the 1980s, with Micheal Jackson and Madonna, unlike the other two, he kept reinventing himself and retaining his musical gifts well into this century. i was a big fan of his music , and the ' retelling' of a Prince basketball game with Charlie Murphy on the Dave Chappelle show, introduced him to a new generation who didnt know his music beforehand. Prince liked the skit so much, he used an image of Chappelle dressed up as him for a 2008 album called, appropriately enough, Breakfast Can Wait". RIP Prince, your music will last forever.
