That's a shame, besides his well known talents he was also a great guitarist. R.I.P. Prince.

Genius is an overused word in many cases, but he was certainly one

Unbelievably talented, makes ones own minor contribution to humanity seem rather limited!!!!

I heard about it earlier

He was a musical genius and ended up being screwed over by sony music

I saw him twice in concert and both times were amazing, the gold tour was when he reinvented himself at 'symbol' TAFCAP.

A lot of people don't know some of the massive hits that he wrote. Kiss and Nothing compares 2 you

George Michael had the beef with Sony
Prince was enslaved to Warner Bros or so he said

They don't make them like him anymore. I recommend Youtubing the Matt Lucas Prince Homage on Rock Profile. A Glaswegian drunk....
