Prince dies unexpectedly at 57

Woah. This is big news, and I'm not going to be able to do it credit in a blog post. So, rather than espouse anything poetic, I'll keep it straight and simple.

According to BBC, Prince's publicist announced that he passed away today in Minnesota at the age of only 57 years. Police were called for a medical emergency, but at this time there's no news.

This is a huge loss for the music world. RIP, Prince.
