    Munn posted: "I got to see @prince in concert this past summer and I was blown away by his talents and his generosity to his band mates, always making sure to give each one their individual moment to shine on stage. He defined the word ARTIST. My thoughts go out to his friends and family. Rest in love, #Prince.(sic)"
