New York Media Reacts to Singer Amy Winehouse's Death

On Saturday, a talented, albeit troubled singer died.  Amy Winehouse was 27. While the official cause of death hasn’t been determined, it has been widely speculated that she died of a drug overdose or alcohol abuse. As recently as May, Winehouse was back in a rehabilitation facility.   

Her death was tragic to millions of fans worldwide, but unfortunately she was headed on a collision course for an untimely death.

“[I] haven’t played her stuff in awhile due to [a] lack of  hits, but it’s sad once again to see someone with talent get snuffed away by drugs,” Abel Sanchez, DJ at Internet station Pulse 87, tells FishbowlNY.
