2. The Notorious B.I.G
The thought of death can unnerve lots of people. It’s not a subject many like to talk about. But rapper Notorious B.I.G didn’t shy away from the concept of death; he embraced it.
After all, it was one of the major themes in his debut album Ready to Die. Christopher George Latore Wallace, who went by stage names Notorious B.I.G, Biggie, and Biggie Smalls, discussed his death in the song “Suicidal Thoughts”, where he raps, “I swear to God I feel like death is f—ing calling me.”
Biggie didn’t commit suicide like the song suggested. Instead, he was gunned down in a drive-by in L.A. three years later in 1997. Two weeks later his posthumous album was released, eerily titled Life After Death.
1. Kurt Cobain
Kurt Cobain gets the special #1 spot on the list because he not only predicted his death, he predicted his life as well. At the age of 14, Kurt Cobain told a classmate that he would become a rich and famous musician and go out in a blaze of glory by committing suicide.
His classmate most likely thought Cobain was crazy, but he never would have guessed Cobain would turn out to be right all along. Kurt Cobain achieved wealth and fame as the lead singer of the popular grunge band Nirvana, which the media dubbed the flagship band of Generation X with Kurt Cobain as the spokesman.
He was found dead in his home on April 8, 1994 with a shotgun pointing at his chin, fulfilling the prophecy he laid out for himself.
