I had no idea he was even sick. God damn it.

 

[benzy]

R.I.P

 

[injurai]

If he didn't want people to know... why would he, on the verge of death, plan a promotional campaign for his new album?

He's promoting his album, but there is not tour and there never was going to be one. He stated he was too old to still being tours, and just wanted to record from now on.

 

[Discotheque]

Oh man, really sad news. RIP.

gonna fire up prestige again this week and listen to low.

 

[BocoDragon]

I still don't believe it

 

[Clefargle]

What the shit? NO

My SO and I were just talking about him LAST NIGHT.

RIP

 

[sprsk]

Did we even know he had cancer? (Now that I think about it, blackstar may be a connection to cancer...)

 

[half a moon]

They'd have to hack his FB and twitter
