Prince, 1958-2016

Legendary and iconic musician, Prince, has passed away at the age of 57.

TMZ reported earlier this morning that Prince’s body was found at his estate in Minnesota, and multiple sources began confirming shortly after.

Prince had been battling a severe case of the flu for the past few weeks, and just recently at a show on April 16th, he told the crowd, “Wait a few days before you waste any prayers.”

TMZ also released the emergency dispatch audio, which you can find on their website.

Prince has left a lasting legacy on the music world, garnering 7 Grammy Awards, performing at the Super Bowl, winning an Academy Award, and selling more than 100 million records.

RIP Prince.
