Amy Winehouse, 5 time Grammy winner, was pronounced dead today after paramedics arrived at her Camden home. Her death is being treated as 'unexplained', leading many to speculate that her death was due to substance abuse.
The singer, who ironically won 3 of her 5 Grammy Awards for the song 'Rehab', kicked off her career by being announced one of the most young acclaimed singers of the 2000's and began the British trend of retro soul which is still continuing today.
Many have spouted theories of her joining 'The 27 Club' along with musicians such as Jimi Hendrix who died after taking too many sleeping pills with wine, and Kurt Cobain, who committed suicide after struggling for years with alcohol and drugs.
'Her death is shocking in its awful predictability' wrote Sean O'Hagan of The Guardian.
