A great artist has left earth...
The Blackstar video is quite a bizarre masterpiece (and a great song as well)

When it was released 2 months ago I just appreciated it for it's great music, concept and visuals. But now it only seems more brilliant: true genius foreshadowing his own departure.
The very last video is even more on the nose: released only 4 days ago:

A quote:
Here’s what his longtime producer Tony Visconti wrote of the death of his longtime collaborator at age 69:
"He always did what he wanted to do. And he wanted to do it his way and he wanted to do it the best way. His death was no different from his life—a work of Art. He made Blackstar for us, his parting gift. I knew for a year this was the way it would be. I wasn’t, however, prepared for it. He was an extraordinary man, full of love and life. He will always be with us. For now, it is appropriate to cry."
RIP
