Prince Reportedly Treated for Drug Overdose Before Death; 911 Details Released


Prince was reportedly treated for a drug overdose six days before his death on Thursday, according to TMZ.

Prince’s jet plane made an emergency landing in Moline, Ill., last Friday due to a medical emergency. His rep told Variety at the time that the singer was struggling with the flu.

According to the TMZ report, doctors gave Prince a “safe shot” after he was rushed to the hospital, something reportedly given to counteract the effects of opiates. Doctors apparently advised that Prince stay in the hospital for 24 hours — he left, however, after three hours.

Authorities found Prince unresponsive in an elevator when they arrived Thursday morning, responding to a 911 call. First responders tried CPR, but were unable to revive the pop star and he was pronounced dead at 10:07 a.m.

Police are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding Prince’s death. His autopsy will be performed on Friday.

The Carver County Sheriff’s Office also released the transcript of the 911 call that an unidentified male made to report Prince’s death. The caller said the people at the house were “distraught,” and said he didn’t know how Prince died.

See the full transcript, which began at 9:43 a.m. on Thursday, below.

Has OTEP Has Been Writing New Songs For A New Upcoming Album? YES!

OTEP AT KNOTFEST, photo by Blunt Headed's Instagram

OTEP was at Knotfest in Southern California in 2014, performing and using water guns to spray red fake blood on the crowd. There has never been such an amazing crowd warming response as this show, way in the back corner of the venue, The DJ Starscream Mobile Assault Vehicle aka, the RV, tucked back for merchandise and the after show autographs. After their huge performance, the line for the band OTEP was stretched across the entire field, for several hours into the afternoon. Which means that OTEP fans were missing hours of other band's music, just to meet OTEP Shamaya herself or if not, to say hi again.

It is hard to express what kind of cult following OTEP continues to have with their fans more than willing to embrace them now, and follow the band as OTEP has been on tour since Knotfest ended, with an incredibly wide reception not just at their shows, but on social media as well. OTEP's show resembles early 2000's Slipknot show, with Butchered animal heads, blood, masks, and anger... lots and lots of anger. While getting older it becomes easier to give into nostalgic thoughts and find these shows less of a copy of Slipknot, but paying homage to the olden days, in the festival of the Knot dedicated to true metal music and art. OTEP last year signed an artist management deal with Mach 2.8 Entertainment Group, CEO Sid Wilson from SLIPKNOT, and Symon Mead.

It's a gathering of kids that really get a show they expected with Knotfest, and not a bunch of suits and ties sitting in a room trying to plot out a strategy of making more and more money bring in cheezier and cheezier bands that kill everyone's buzz. With the Slipknot members getting a say, and in turn giving the kids what they want, is really what makes bands like OTEP available to their loyal fans that just want their band back. With Sid Wilson and Mach 2.8 Entertainment helping to bring in music that still has a voice for years to come, this is a breath of fresh air for the metal music community. This is also proof of why artists like Sid Wilson, may know what they're talking about.




Speaking to the 107.5 The Rock radio station, OTEP said (hear audio below): "We've been doing a lot of writing, and there are plans [to make] a new OTEP album this year. And you're actually kind of getting the breaking news here; we haven't announced it yet. But, yeah, we're gonna be recording a new album this year. We're real excited, and it's gonna be… I don't know… The songs we've been writing, they're just pouring out of us and they just feel amazing. And it's everything that we are. It's grown from our roots where we started and then it's blossomed into where are are now as artists and musicians."


Sid now has a SPIT16 app/challenge out now for the hottest 16 bars and a chance to work with him in the studio. Click HERE to for SID's facebook page.

Shawn ‘Clown’ Crahan Talks Next Slipknot Album, Pays Tribute to Late Member Paul Gray




May 24, 2015 marks the five-year anniversary of Slipknot bassist Paul Gray‘s death. At this year’s Rock on the Range Festival, Loudwire Nights host Full Metal Jackie caught up with Slipknot percussionist Shawn ‘Clown’ Crahan to speak about the band, and it’s future plans and how they will to pay homage to Gray.

Gray’s death proved extremely difficult to recover from. Slipknot found themselves emotionally unequipped to create new material for several years, as imagining studio sessions without Paul Gray seemed near-impossible. However, six years after releasing All Hope is Gone, Slipknot came back swinging with the immensely successful .5: The Gray Chapter in 2014.


In this interview, Clown reveals that Slipknot have been writing for their sixth studio album. No definitive plans have been made, but Clown guesses that the next Slipknot LP could be released as soon as the first quarter of 2017.

Speaking of Paul Gray, Clown shared some kind sentiments for his late friend. “I miss his energy on days like this,” says Clown, referring to the band’s set at Rock on the Range. “This would be exciting to him; this big stadium. He’d be doing a lot of stuff today. His energy would be good and I miss that. Just that positive, remembering why we were kids and jamming in a basement to take over the world in some rock band, back when it was a dream.”
