Artist, sex symbol and visionary, Prince, is dead at 57.

Let’s just get this out of the way: Fuck 2016.

Prince, the man who single-handedly tore down and rebuilt entire genres of music and film, transcended his earthly form today to join Bowie in a duet so powerful that it could only take place in the far reaches of the cosmos.

In 1984 Prince made “Purple Rain”, arguably the greatest music film ever released. The soundtrack for the film included “Let’s Go Crazy” and “When Doves Cry”, two songs that would go on to shape not only the future of music but of pop culture in its entirety.

Today, he died in his home in Minnesota.
