2016 has been brutal. I was hoping this was a hoax.

I think this was confirmed to be Fake earlier today. Thank goodness.

His publicist just confirmed it to the associated press.

See I had just read this one http://en.mediamass.net/people/prince/deathhoax.html and thought it was fake. That is super sad! Awwww man!

The absence of evidence is NOT the evidence of absence...

That's 3 so far this week. The rule of 3's holds true it seems, celebrity deaths always seem to come in 3's.

RIP Prince.

This is devastating. One of the great musical talents of the last 40 years.

Prince was one of those musicians I wanted to listen to as he got older and experimented more with sound.

Rest in peace.

Confirmed now, pretty sad. I personally was never really fond of his music, but obviously I recognize that he was one of the greats. My condolences to those he leaves behind.
