Awesome
music

How
did
he
die?

He, like many other great musicians (Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, The Big Bopper, Rick Nelson, Aaliyah, Otis Redding... just to name a few) died in a plane crash.

Sad... when they fall from the sky...

If you wanted to buy a Sam Cooke album where would you go??

Actually,he was at a motel in the los angeles area with a white woman.What people think happened is this lady he was with knew who he was and got him to the motel to rob him.Once he was undressed she grabbed his clothes and ran outta the room.Once she saw that he was chasing her to get his clothes back,she began to yell rape and then just disappeared.They believe her boyfriend was waiting in a car for her nearby.Anyways,he runs over to the motel managers door and starts to yell for help saying he needs a phone.Well I guess she was scared when she heard all the yelling and grabbed a shotgun,so when he came banging on the door she thought he was gonna attack her as well,so she blasted his ass.He died right there and no charges were ever filed against anyone.The L.A.P.D stated that it was justifiable homicide,case closed...
