Rock And Roll Hall Of FamerĀ Leonard Cohen has died at the age of 82.
“We have lost one of music’s most revered and prolific visionaries,” said a post on the artist’s official Facebook page.
No further details were released, but the announcement comes a month after the artist told the New Yorker: “I am ready to die. I hope it’s not too uncomfortable. That’s about it for me.”
A highly-respected artist known for his poetic and lyrical music, Cohen wrote a number of popular songs including the often-covered “Hallelujah.”
His 14th studio album, “You Want It Darker,” had just been released on October 21.
