RIP Prince

[Spartan Rex]

Interesting, in that I recall numerous articles over the last year or so going on about how Prince seems to never age. One I noticed last week was about how amazing his recent passport photo was.....
And now, rigor mortis.
Celebs are supposed to go in 3's so if the Angel of Death is taking requests might I encourage a Kardashian or a Kanye.

What a talent. He rose to stardom during my teen years. Remember watching Purple Rain the movie at a party on VHS. First time I had ever heard the song Purple Rain. Absolutely loved it. Fondly remember riding back on the bus from our Senior Class trip playing one of his cassettes and the whole bus singing Kiss.

Loved Purple Rain... I'm so bummed. I had to switch to the music station here at work from sports talk so I could hear all the Prince songs.


I heard that cat could ball too.... game blouses.

I can't remember any off hand but I know I have heard his name come up a lot for writing hit songs for other people.

God Damn it.

Why don't we EVER read any breaking news about one of the Kardashians dying? Or that thing called bruce jenner?

For ****'s sake.

Rest in peace, genius.

He sometimes wrote songs for other people under a pseudonym, such as Christopher for “Manic Monday“ by The Bangles. The girls were flying in coach while he was in first class, one of them went up to him just to let him know how much they loved his work. Next thing they know a stewardess comes back to them with a napkin with the lyrics to their first hit song “Manic Monday“. They later contacted him to get the chords and they broke out as a band with that song. Genius.

Heard he's a workaholic and doesn't eat much. Maybe that's why he is so skinny. But certainly a young age to die.
