It is time now for us to honor ourselves and each other and not wait for others to deign a touch on the shoulder as a show if appreciation. We, the talented ones should now cut the strings, remember who we are, and do the things that divine self awareness and self love inspire.
Donnie shouldn't have been alone that night he fell to his death. Especially after he was seen huddled in a corner at the studio, making delusional statements. This man was a genius in a class all his own. His voice and musical sound can never be replaced. He is missed dearly ❤
@@MrBean617 As much as I have kept up with his story over the years, this the first I heard of Roberta being there. Never heard this mentioned before, are you sure?
He had a Beautiful voice. What a gift he was! His daughter, Lalah's voice is just as beautiful and as rich as his. His songs make you think, smile, and reflect. I'm thankful he recorded songs with Roberta Flack. Great duo. RIP Mr. Hathaway. 🙏🏽💛
I learned that Donny married Eulalia Vann. She also had a beautiful voice but was kind of a wallflower. I also taught a relative of Roberta Flack in my very early days as a music teacher.
He was fine until he got into that dark industry. It’s the same sad ending for so many precious and talented artists. There’s a whole evil dark side that sucks out the soul. Rest easy sweet songbird 🌹
Agreed, he definitely was tampered with - they feared that he could bring masses together. - something doesnt add up. This guy could bring out your last tear weeping like a baby just with his voice. A proper angel and the powers that be knew it.
@morrishartman5686 They always use their "code" numbers when they do their rituals. 😢 DH's death never sat well with me, especially when I researched his history and his death while he was in the industry. Very sad. 😢 The industry is very evil and demonic. I think most people know that by now. DH probably didn't want to play that game.
I'm 49 and I think about Donnie everyday since 1985, every year I play his Christmas song. And everyday I play his music. My ex husband has schizophrenia and it's impacting me to this day.
My brother has paranoid schizophrenia, and used to periodically quit taking his meds, claiming he didn't like the side effects and didn't need to take them, only to go crazy all over again. His sickness took a terrible toll on my parents, myself and anyone close to my brother. Life is incredibly cruel at times.
How sad. I do remember him because of Roberta Flack and he had an amazing voice . I was very young . Thanks for that history lesson because I had no idea he had suffered from mental illness
Donny Hathaway is one of my all time favorite musician/singers of all time. He was a gifted genius and he pass that gene to his beautiful daughter. She sounds just like him. See you when you return in the next life.
I remember him before Roberta Flack. Was always a fan. He made a song recorded live entitled, ‘The Ghetto’ that was a storm in the AA community. Sort of like an anthem. He remade ‘A Song for You’ that was recorded again by his daughter. Fantastic singer, as is Laila.
Donny is My favorite singer of all time. He and Aretha Franklin’s voices were like instruments. Donny is in heavy rotation on my playlists daily. When I first heard Luther Vandross sing, I could hear that he was inspired by Donny after singing background for him and Roberta Flack. Luther had his own personal style, but the riffs between falsetto to deep tenor, were definitely inspired by Donny, Luther (another favorite gone too soon😢) definitely was inspired, but was definitely an original too. RIP to all of the talented beloved performers we love, who have given us so much joy. ❤☮️
@@whatyousay9816 Yep. Two more of our talented brothers. I don’t care about David’s private life, no one can say that he wasn’t talented. I grew up in the Temptations Smoky Donny, (and others who could really SANG so I’m kinda spoiled and tend to shy away from most of today’s “music “😄😄Back then talent was the norm, now there are very few and most are studio artists who sound like 💩in person.🤦🏾♀️
If you know you know... im here because i know there is much more to this story than what we are told... he reportedly said people were after him and i dont doubt that
I watched a video on TH-cam, about 2 months ago. In the video, it revealed the nefarious tactics of certain CIA agents. An agent was to assassinate someone, who was a problem. 2 men worked together on a project. One of the men was becoming concerned about the work. He became a mark. He eventually was said to have jumped from a hotel window. But the TH-cam video revealed he had been pushed. One agent was quoted as saying, the pushing method posed little problem, being labeled as suicide. I immediately thought about Mr. Hathaway. I also remember stories of Mr. Hathaway saying they want to take over his music He adamant about concerns of being targeted. He was eventually diagnosed with being paranoid schizophrenia. 🤔

I have shed so many tears throughout my life in reference to Donny Hathaway. When he says, "I love you in a place where there's no space or time", I take it personally, because I know that kind of love. Space and time are limited resources. And that kind of love is divine.
You Are My Heaven is one of my favorite songs of all time. My youngest son and I sing this song frequently ever since he was a baby. He's now 24 years old.
Powerful, Donny Hathaway is one of my all time favorite singers, so underrated!!! It's time for his motion picture to be made, Long life the great Donny Hathaway
Donnie Hathaway was an DYNAMIC 🎉 vocalist, even in passing he will always in my heart be the BEST in the world of music, this Man had one of those unique voices that is extremely rare, sadly many people refuse to believe he Suffered from one of the many horrible Mental illnesses that exist within our world😢 he was ONE of a KIND.
@user-md8of9yj1d He was a musical genius. And, he was at the prime of his career when he died at 33. What happened to him, I do believe it was a set up. He was under "mind control" is the reason why people say he had schizophrenia. He was having a mental breakdown because he was breaking through the "mind control" and his "handlers" couldn't handle him anymore. It was because they wanted his music catalog. Just like they did with Prince. Smh. Very sad! He was a musical genius, songwriter, and vocalist as well. Very sad. These people are very diabolical! Smh. 😢
@@idontknow7738 the way he played piano is hard to believe he had any wrong in his mind . This is one of thee only musicians that make the back of my mind spark when you hear 🎹
It’s a shame and disgrace that he hasn’t been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!😡 It’s still the same old story of deception greed and glory.
He said it and I believe him he answered my questions I felt like they killed him and they have been for so long and is still doing it come on BLK people and fighting back ain't wrong ❤️🌎🙏
😮I really don't believe Donny was killed. This beautiful man suffered from a mental illness that is so cruel it spins the person who suffers from it in so many directions. It is heartbreaking to watch.❤ My brother was diagnosed when he was 20 yrs old. One time I saw him sitting on my mom's bed. She was trying to encourage him in some way and then I walked in the room and saw tears streaming down his face. I'd never seen my brother cry ever. I knew then that he was tired of the fight, and the meds which he was initially taking at the time sucked and didn't help. I knew why. This was my big brother who would come to my rescue whenever someone would pick on me. I don't know if Donny fell or he jumped but I just know in my heart that he had to be tired.😮 It's one thing to be tired in body but quite another to be tired mentally. Many of us have been there. But no, I just do not believe he was killed. It's so important that we educate ourselves about mental illness and be willing to see it for what it is so that we can get in the fight, not forcibly but lovingly, athough at times the loves gonna have to be a bit tough. We have to pay attention when we notice things are off with them so that we can talk to them about it and really listen and offer to go with them to talk to someone. We want to help them find effective treatment early before they're so far gone that getting them to get the help becomes more difficult😮. My brother passed away some years ago, but he let me pray for him as he accepted Christ into his heart. I know I will see him again one day and he will be perfect, even more beautiful than the big brother who left us.❤❤😊 Rest in paradise brother until we meet again. I love you, man!!! Glad you're at peace❤
Just my opinion but I don’t believe he took his own life. I believe due to his schizophrenia he jumped in part due to the unwanted horrible perceived feelings that he was having, but I don’t believe for one second that was intentional and wanted to end it all. I feel really bad.
I’ve always thought the same thing too. I think the voices told him too or he was trying to escape the voices and stuff. Mental illness is such a horrible disease. And they didn’t have the resources, meds , etc back then that they have now. And like most ppl they take the meds till the start feeling better. Then stop once they think they’re ok. It’s sad. He was such a talented musical genius. In such a short period of time. He left such a powerful impact on the musical industry and the world honestly. He’s definitely one of my favs!
@justanadams9430 Finally, someone who knows. I can't believe that people don't know how the entertainment/music industry rolls. I doubt he had schizophrenia. Something else was going on. I'll just leave it at that. P.S. He was only 33 when he died. That number, by itself, speaks volumes. 😢
@@idontknow7738 It's hard to accept the tragedy of untreated mental illness, but making up conspiracy theories doesn't help one to heal. He wasn't on his medication for schizophrenia and that resulted in his death.
I’ll never forget the day that I read that the marvellous Donny Hathaway had died. I was being driven home from work with my dad and he had bought the local paper I was reading it and saw the article that said he had committed suicide. My stomach dropped, I thought Nooooo please not Donny Hathaway, I couldn’t believe it. He wasn’t well known in the UK only by the Roberta Flack duets. When I heard his voice with Roberta Flack I knew he was someone special and bought all his albums. He had one of the greatest voices ever and was an immense talent. A great singer, writer, keyboard player, producer, arranger, a genius. Mental illness is a horrific thing to have, it claims so many lives. His daughter Lalah is keeping his memory going, she sings just like him. She is not getting the recognition she deserves just like her father, as I said Donny wasn’t well known in the UK.
He and Stevie Wonder were supposedly about to record music together before Brother Donny's passing. Seems as if he barely scratched the surface of his incomparable potential. May he R.I.P.
@adriannejohnson4176 👍🏽💯👍🏽 Finally, someone else who can also "overstand." I can't believe that people can''t "overstand" how wicked the entertainment/music industry is. The only thing they know how to do is "understand." Very sad! 😢
@@idontknow7738 Yes, Yash Qaraah put me d many years ago, the stories used to sound crazy because it was new to me. But I knew he was telling the truth…he even said what was going on with Puffy and Cassie many years ago and look, the shit came out recently. He was the first to put everything out there.
He probably was killed. The entertainment industry is brutal. The same thing happens over and over to various artists the industry, with the same ole explanations
The hall of fame board should add him on the list he deseves.❤what talent he had of greatness and loved all over this world gone too soon and never forgotten.
Do ur homework on thee OCCULT and the connection Roberta Flack had with it. And u will learn more about who and why he was sacrificed. Such an awesome talent. Peace
A man who went to school with Roberta Flack’s son in ‘87 said that Roberta’s son told him that Donny killed himself because Roberta didn’t wanna be with him. He also said that Roberta was in the room when it happened.
MY MOTHER WAS SCHIZOPHRENIC BUT THERE WERE TIMES WHEN SHE MADE HELLA SENCE SPIRITUALLLY AND WORLD LIKE. SO THEY SHOULD NEVER BE TOTALLY DISMISSED. WHAT I AM GETTING AT HERE IS THIS. DONNY RAN INTO A CORNER SAYING THAT THEY WERE TRYING TO STEAL HIS MUSIC MAY HAVE VERY WELL BEEN TRUE. THE FACT THAT HE MISTERIOUSLY COMMITED SUICIDE MAKES ME WONDER ABOUT THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY. THEY KNEW DONNY WAS TALENTED AND KNEW HE HAD SOME MENTAL ISSUES AS WELL. PERHAPS THEY TRIED TO MANIPULATE HIM $$ WISE AND HE REFUSED. IM THINKING... THEY KNEW HE WAS BIG AND LOVED BY FANS SO HE DIDN'T NEED THEM AS MUCH AND COULD DO IT ON HIS OWN. THEY DON'T LIKE YOU BEING TOO INDEPENDENT. JUST LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED TO SINGER, SALINA. THEY NEW SHE WOULD NOT SUBMIT AND SELL HER SOUL BUT HAD ALREADY HAD A HUGH FAN BASE MADE ON HER OWN POPULARITY. SHE'S GONE TOO.....IJS.
The music industry is so wicked, I wouldn't put it past them. And those insurance policies aka death policies they have on the artists make so many of the artists worth more dead than alive.
I LOVE DONNY HATHAWAY……. HE WAS A GENIUS !Back together again is one of my favorite songs of all time. He like many famous Black artists have said that they are trying to kill them ….even Michael Jackson he will be forever missed🩸🙏🏾😇✝️♥️💐👍🏽❤️❤️❤️Rest✝️
Rest in peace, Donny Hathaway I like his song back together again I was just listening to this track on TH-cam. That song is a hit. He reminds me of Curtis Mayfield and the temptation and the blue notes. The O’Jays in the list goes on and on rest in peace Donny Hathaway.
So very talented and gifted. I definitely dedicated A song for you to my beautiful Beloved Sister. ❤❤❤🙏🏾😍🙏🏾😍❤️🔥🔥& Someday we'll all be free. Sleep well in heavenly Paradise Beloved Donny.
We know family 😣😪 these evil monsters killed him just like they murdered all our other great ANCESTORS may they all rest in peace forever with the Ancestors 🌹🤲🏾🙏🏿♥️😪
While agree Hathaway had a wonderful voice with especially distinctive delivery and phrasing, I also regard him a highly unique keyboard artist, lyricist and composer.
He did such remarkable work with Roberta Flack. I still listen to their songs regularly now. ❤ They really threw down with Back Together Again and You Are My Heaven. But I didn’t know Donny had mental illness until now. I never knew what caused his death.
I’m telling you this man was not crazy at all u see how they portrayed Kanye, the white man is definitely for sure the problem & always was 💯 May he rest well ✊🏽❤️
the first time I heard "Someday We'll All Be Free" I couldn't stop crying.
The same for me.
Me too
Same here. Aretha Franklin's version in the end credits of the film Malcolm x got me weeping.😭
I still can't get thru that song without shedding a tear to this day! 😢 I love him! 😢
I can't remember the first time, but I do recall that song causing me to grieve Sasha's death in The Walking Dead show, which was a character I wouldn't have otherwise grieved. Which ultimately proves my theory that music ABSOLUTELY AND UNDISPUTEDLY influences emotions, and emotions influence actions, especially the actions of the inexperienced.
That being said Modern day POPULAR blck music is mostly self destructive denigrative trash, and it IS influencing our kids and young adults, and this is facts no matter how many times people disagree. BRING BACK RREEAALL BLK MUSIC✊🏾
He definitely deserves to be inducted into The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame
Obviously you care or you wouldn't have slimed into the comments. @onionhemingway-oc1pq

It's so important that we educate ourselves about mental illness and be willing to see it for what it is so that we can get in the fight, not forcibly but lovingly, athough at times the loves gonna have to be a bit tough. We have to pay attention when we notice things are off with them so that we can talk to them about it and really listen and offer to go with them to talk to someone. We want to help them find effective treatment early before they're so far gone that getting them to get the help becomes more difficult😮. My brother passed away some years ago, but he let me pray for him as he accepted Christ into his heart. I know I will see him again one day and he will be perfect, even more beautiful than the big brother who left us.❤❤😊
Rest in paradise brother until we meet again. I love you, man!!! Glad you're at peace❤
Just my opinion but I don’t believe he took his own life. I believe due to his schizophrenia he jumped in part due to the unwanted horrible perceived feelings that he was having, but I don’t believe for one second that was intentional and wanted to end it all. I feel really bad.
I’ve always thought the same thing too. I think the voices told him too or he was trying to escape the voices and stuff. Mental illness is such a horrible disease. And they didn’t have the resources, meds , etc back then that they have now. And like most ppl they take the meds till the start feeling better. Then stop once they think they’re ok. It’s sad. He was such a talented musical genius. In such a short period of time. He left such a powerful impact on the musical industry and the world honestly. He’s definitely one of my favs!
I believe that he was set up.
@@justanadams9430Be fucking quiet
@justanadams9430 Finally, someone who knows. I can't believe that people don't know how the entertainment/music industry rolls. I doubt he had schizophrenia. Something else was going on. I'll just leave it at that. P.S. He was only 33 when he died. That number, by itself, speaks volumes. 😢
@@idontknow7738
It's hard to accept the tragedy of untreated mental illness, but making up conspiracy theories doesn't help one to heal. He wasn't on his medication for schizophrenia and that resulted in his death.
I’ll never forget the day that I read that the marvellous Donny Hathaway had died. I was being driven home from work with my dad and he had bought the local paper I was reading it and saw the article that said he had committed suicide. My stomach dropped, I thought Nooooo please not Donny Hathaway, I couldn’t believe it. He wasn’t well known in the UK only by the Roberta Flack duets. When I heard his voice with Roberta Flack I knew he was someone special and bought all his albums. He had one of the greatest voices ever and was an immense talent. A great singer, writer, keyboard player, producer, arranger, a genius. Mental illness is a horrific thing to have, it claims so many lives. His daughter Lalah is keeping his memory going, she sings just like him. She is not getting the recognition she deserves just like her father, as I said Donny wasn’t well known in the UK.
He was one of the greatest missed by many rip see you on the other side
He and Stevie Wonder were supposedly about to record music together before Brother Donny's passing. Seems as if he barely scratched the surface of his incomparable potential. May he R.I.P.
He was a masterpiece of singing and music gone too soon He is one of my favorite artists
I believe what he said was definitely going on😢
That is EXACTLY what happened. They now have his music and his voice. Imagine what artists benefited from his song book??
Heavy
So grateful that I had the opportunity to see his daughter in concert.
Man Donny aint killed himself. the musicians in that day all talk about what they think really happened . The greatest singer of all time
Mental illness can cause suicide. Study facts bud.
Right…he said what was happening and people still on that schizophrenia stuff.
@adriannejohnson4176
👍🏽💯👍🏽 Finally, someone else who can also "overstand." I can't believe that people can''t "overstand" how wicked the entertainment/music industry is. The only thing they know how to do is "understand." Very sad! 😢
@kingdomstylefilms ▪︎
👍🏽💯👍🏽 No, he sure didn't. Finally, someone else who can "overstand." 😘
@@idontknow7738 Yes, Yash Qaraah put me d many years ago, the stories used to sound crazy because it was new to me. But I knew he was telling the truth…he even said what was going on with Puffy and Cassie many years ago and look, the shit came out recently. He was the first to put everything out there.
He was the Greatest 💯💯 of all time May he Rest in peace 🕊️🕊️🙏🙏
Always remembered! Never forgotten!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Who owns his catalog now?😮
😢Rest easy Donnie!❤
LET HIM REST IN PEACE😢
So Divinely Talented you can't find this anymore.
He probably was killed. The entertainment industry is brutal. The same thing happens over and over to various artists the industry, with the same ole explanations
Be quiet
Donny was an extraordinary, generational talent.
Quincy Jones? Not surprised😢
Exactly
I loved his music and duets with Roberta Flack! Their music always put me in a groove back in da day!
Such a great talent. He came to do what he was supposed to give us. Will live forever!!!
His daughter Lalah is carrying out his legacy beautifully!
He passed when she was only 11.
Now that we know about MK Altra and how Holly weird really works... No accident
Exactly.. he knew what was going on.. they tried to keep him drugged! He was traumatized! Lord have mercy 🙏🏾💗
His spirit lives!
Thank you for this! There needs to be a movie on this guy.
The hall of fame board should add him on the list he deseves.❤what talent he had of greatness and loved all over this world gone too soon and never forgotten.
So tragic, very bizarre incident. He is dearly missed.
Do ur homework on thee OCCULT and the connection Roberta Flack had with it. And u will learn more about who and why he was sacrificed. Such an awesome talent. Peace
Right 👍🏾 she's a Witch! She did that to him 💯
Never cared for her.. weird vibes..
Rest Well, Donnie Hathaway ❤.
Donny Hathaway 💝is a precious gift. And is my #1 favorite musical talent.
A man who went to school with Roberta Flack’s son in ‘87 said that Roberta’s son told him that Donny killed himself because Roberta didn’t wanna be with him. He also said that Roberta was in the room when it happened.
What man?
He wasn’t hallucinating, he was spiritual and couldn’t handle the voices he was hearing.
Spiritual people do not commit suicide 😮
@@darrenjohnson7857 I’m not gonna answer you so much as I’ll let you sit with that one.
@@loirinlancaster3 I read your answer * I agree
Jesus Christ is the Truth and the answer to depression, fear, demonic influence, and suicidal thoughts. He offers eternal life that no man take away.❤
We love you Donnie!
MY MOTHER WAS SCHIZOPHRENIC BUT THERE WERE TIMES WHEN SHE MADE HELLA SENCE SPIRITUALLLY AND WORLD LIKE. SO THEY SHOULD NEVER BE TOTALLY DISMISSED. WHAT I AM GETTING AT HERE IS THIS. DONNY RAN INTO A CORNER SAYING THAT THEY WERE TRYING TO STEAL HIS MUSIC MAY HAVE VERY WELL BEEN TRUE. THE FACT THAT HE MISTERIOUSLY COMMITED SUICIDE MAKES ME WONDER ABOUT THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY. THEY KNEW DONNY WAS TALENTED AND KNEW HE HAD SOME MENTAL ISSUES AS WELL. PERHAPS THEY TRIED TO MANIPULATE HIM $$ WISE AND HE REFUSED. IM THINKING... THEY KNEW HE WAS BIG AND LOVED BY FANS SO HE DIDN'T NEED THEM AS MUCH AND COULD DO IT ON HIS OWN. THEY DON'T LIKE YOU BEING TOO INDEPENDENT. JUST LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED TO SINGER, SALINA. THEY NEW SHE WOULD NOT SUBMIT AND SELL HER SOUL BUT HAD ALREADY HAD A HUGH FAN BASE MADE ON HER OWN POPULARITY. SHE'S GONE TOO.....IJS.

2 Pac, Michael Jackson et DMX disparus dans des conditions troubles
The music industry is so wicked, I wouldn't put it past them. And those insurance policies aka death policies they have on the artists make so many of the artists worth more dead than alive.
Conspiracy theories and UFOs.
Yolanda Saldivar killed Selena out of obsession and jealousy. The trail ends with her and she rots in prison.
Yes loved his music so sorry about his departure ❤❤❤
I LOVE DONNY HATHAWAY……. HE WAS A GENIUS !Back together again is one of my favorite songs of all time. He like many famous Black artists have said that they are trying to kill them ….even Michael Jackson he will be forever missed🩸🙏🏾😇✝️♥️💐👍🏽❤️❤️❤️Rest✝️
One of the best ever!☝🏾R.I.P.💞🕊
I love his Christmas song 🎵 so many memories God be with you ❤
Love donny hathaway R.I.P donny.
You're labeled crazy once you reach a certain level...same old same old.
It is so important our community remove the stigma surrounding mental health.
Rest in peace, Donny Hathaway I like his song back together again I was just listening to this track on TH-cam. That song is a hit. He reminds me of Curtis Mayfield and the temptation and the blue notes. The O’Jays in the list goes on and on rest in peace Donny Hathaway.
Thank you Master is a powerful tune. Makes you really think about what makes you as a person and where you came from spiritually.
This man was a genius.
So very talented and gifted.
I definitely dedicated A song for you to my beautiful Beloved Sister.
❤❤❤🙏🏾😍🙏🏾😍❤️🔥🔥& Someday we'll all be free.
Sleep well in heavenly Paradise Beloved Donny.
It look as if he was attacked by demons. Some witches did something to him..It is written 'my people perish because of the lack of knowledge'
People are still sleeping on the industry. 💤😴💤 Per Teddy Pendergrass, "wake up everybody. 🥸 No more sleeping in bed." 💤😴💤
Yep 👍🏾 for surrreee..
Where is the love is such a beautiful song with those two singing singing together
He suffered with mental health issues one of the greatest!
He was under Ultra mind control
Sure was!
So traumatic! He was such a talented star! Oh my! 😐
Dead at “33”. If you know, you know.
I see what you sayin yeah. 👀👀👀👀
He was murdered, by someone close to him, many involved 😒
@@YAH-1nooo
But God knows what happened, and if something is out of order it will be brought from darkness into the light.
Got that right 👍🏾
They killed that damn man.
We know family 😣😪 these evil monsters killed him just like they murdered all our other great ANCESTORS may they all rest in peace forever with the Ancestors 🌹🤲🏾🙏🏿♥️😪
He commit suicide
Dear Donny - we love you far more than you will ever know.
While agree Hathaway had a wonderful voice with especially distinctive delivery and phrasing, I also regard him a highly unique keyboard artist, lyricist and composer.
He did such remarkable work with Roberta Flack. I still listen to their songs regularly now. ❤ They really threw down with Back Together Again and You Are My Heaven. But I didn’t know Donny had mental illness until now. I never knew what caused his death.
My favorite singer of all time.
So brilliant 💯🙏🏽💖‼️
Beautiful Voice..❤❤🎉🎉
Rest in Peace Beauitiful Soul✝❤
Amen, Love Bro, Thanks
He was a beautiful talent
We love you Donnie.
I’m telling you this man was not crazy at all u see how they portrayed Kanye, the white man is definitely for sure the problem & always was 💯 May he rest well ✊🏽❤️
Finally somebody gets it-this man was murdered just like prince Michael, Sam, Marvin…et al dead ass! Let’s smarten up yall
👍🏽💯👍🏽Sam Cooke, Jimi Hendrix, Otis Redding, etc. The list goes on and on. Very sad! 😢
