The legendary, iconic, Prince has passed away.
He was 57-years-old.
His body was found at his Paisley Park compound in Minnesota early Thursday morning.
He had been battling the flu for the past week, but last appeared at a concert on April 16th to assure fans he was doing better.
We’re at a loss for words. Never did we expect to lose Vanity and Prince in the same year — or even at all.
Dam. Peace the Gawd Prince. Real legend. Real skill. Real master in the world of sound. Thank you for the multiple wavvs. #RIPPRINCE

Prince was the greatest live performer I ever saw.
A musical genius ablaze with astounding, sexually charged energy. Loved him. RIP— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) April 21, 2016
