KEITH FLINT SINGER OF THE ELECTRO GROUP

THE PRODIGY IS DEAD

British musician Keith Flint, leader of The Prodigy, is dead.

This Monday, March 4, the police of Essex, south-east region of England, found the remains of the singer, who died at his home.

He was 49 years old.

Liam Howlett, the founder of The Prodigy, said it was, no doubt, a suicide.

On Facebook, the group pays tribute to its singer: "It is very shocked and with the greatest sadness that we can confirm the death of our brother and best friend Keith Flint. A true pioneer, an innovator and a legend. We will miss him forever. "

"This death is not considered suspicious," police said.

It was as a dancer that Keith Charles Flint made his debut with The Prodigy before becoming its singer.

He notably put his voice on pieces like Firestarter or Breathe.

This band has made a name for itself with the album "The Fat of the Land", released in 1997, which became a platinum double disc in the United States.

The Breathe clip has been seen more than 48 million times in ten years, while the Firestarter clip is about to pass the milestone of 100 million. Keith Flint appears in Breathe title clips, No Good.

The Smack My Bitch Up clip was scandalous when it was released in 1997.

Their latest album "No Tourists" was released in 2018. The band was still selling out.

For twenty-five years, Keith Flint was known for his unusual style and eccentric hairstyles and tattoos.

The late musician attended the 75th Venice Film Festival last August with fellow musicians Liam Howlett and Maxim Reality.
