The music industry was stunned last night after the news of the death of another of its legends. After the deaths of Whitney Houston and Amy Winehouse, 2012 has claimed another female icon.
Donna Summer, often referred to as the Disco Queen was born in 1948, her real name being la Donna Adrian Gaines. She gained real prominance as a singer, songwriter during the disco era of the 70s and in her time was a five time grammy award winner.
Amongst her big hits were macArthur Park, Love to Love you Baby and of course the massive Hot Stuff.
Donna dies on 17th May after a battle with cancer.
As another great name in the industry leaves us, we in SupaSwap wonder who is replacing these big names in today´s music scene. Our thoughts go out to her friends and family.
