The multi talented musican Prince, age 57 died on Thursday, April 21, almost one week after the iconic singer left fans very concerned about his health by making an emergency landing in Illinois. The death was announced by his publicist Yvette Noel-Schure after police was called to the premises which double as his music studio in the Minnesota city. On Twitter, fellow musicians and celebrities vented barely contained grief. Boy George called Thursday “the worst day ever”; Katy Perry said: “And just like that … the world lost a lot of magic. Mick Jagger has described Prince as a “revolutionary artist” and one of the greatest ever live performers. Chaka Khan Tweeted I LOVED him, the world. LOVED him. Now he’s at peace with his Father. Rest in power, my brother. On Sat 23rd April Code of the Streets dedicated a hour in memory of Prince celebrating his life with songs he inspired, written, performed and even had sampled.
