Andrea Martin, a Grammy Award-winning R&B singer, has died at the age of 49. On September 27, she shared the news via an Instagram story late in the evening. An excerpt from the story read, βIt is with a heavy heart that we inform you of the passing of our beautiful Andrea Martin, also known as βAnnie.’β
This year, the music industry has lost some of its most valuable stars, some to Covid and others to other causes. For example, in July, legendary merengue singer Johnny Ventura died at the age of 80 after visiting the emergency room in the Dominican Republic. Mike Howe, the lead singer of Metal Church, committed suicide after being βvictimized by a failing healthcare system,β according to his bandmates. The death of trans pop star and producer Sophie earlier this year sent shockwaves through the industry. She lost her footing while admiring the full moon and fell from an apartment balcony.
