BREAKING NEWS! Singer Amy Winehouse Found Dead!

Some sad news coming into the music world this afternoon. Singer Amy Winehouse was found dead in her flat in London by police, she was 27 years old. The cause of death is unexplained, but the R&B singer struggled with drug and alcohol addictions for a good portion of her career. She burst onto the scene back in 2003 with her debut album Frank, but it was her 2006 stateside debut Back to Black that really put her on the map. The album produced hits like her most popular song, "Rehab", "You Know I'm No Good", and "Tears Dry On Their Own". The album went double platinum in the US, and won 5 Grammys including Best New Artist, Record of the Year, and Song of the Year for "Rehab". Before her death, she was working on a brand new studio album that she hoped to release sometime later on this year. Whether or not that album was finished or if it's even going to be releases remains to be seen at this time. She was an incredible talent and will be sorely missed by all the musical peers that she worked with.
