Seems to me that he's done the lot, i.e. all ends of the music spectrum, toured consistently from small clubs to grand arenas [still able to sell out stadiums!], hit all ends of the charts, sold millions, hit commercial and creative peaks and troughs, done everything possible in the studio, played with his image to every degree, has easily released enough videos and out takes to cover the main bases, has an incredible work ethic etc.
I really can't think of anything else, can you?.If I was Prince i'd be bored!

i dont think he has anything to prove, never did see some folks think that prince has to prove himself to ya'll and honestly he doesnt simple as that, i mean come on dude makes mistakes like all of us and in the words of my good friend handclapz "prince aintcha ghat dayum daddy"

i wish he would prove he had enough self control to not release another album for the next five years. i'm tired of these half-hearted efforts he's been releasing over the years.

i think when you've run out of challenges and things to prove, it's time to buy that plot of land on the bahamas and call it a day.

see hes putting out albums that he can basically shit out, alot of it un inspired yes, contrived? yes.. something for pop market?.. yes it proves that prince can put out something mindless and someone will bite at it. dont get me wrong im not puttin the cat down i love em' to death but with him now its "work" not fun anymore.

IAintTheOne said:

i know. i wish he would wait to be inspired by something soul-churning, instead of being inspired by the balance on his savings account.

compassion, good will, and charity
and not just once in awhile

as much as a perfectionist the cat is he's also an impatient baby who wants it NOW!!! its the gemini man, thats all it is

i think prince is trying to prove that he can be a success story in the traditional sense. i think since he's now achieved "music legend" status, he wants to take it a step higher. it's kinda sad cuz i feel like he's sacrificing his 'edge' to be an entrepeneur, but maybe he was never particularly interested in being 'edgy' in the first place.

Thanks 4 the laughs. Prince has NOTHING 2 prove 2 anyone but himself.

well, let's hope he'll never stop trying to prove he's a bad mutha4ya on stage.

He's yet to prove to me that he can successfully release a line of casualwear for cats.

sinisterpentatonic said:

Lol. I hear ya.....but that's obvious once the 1st note is played.

Graycap23 said:

I got to agree with Graycap23 on this one. I personally don't feel there's any unconquered territory for this man.

errr Musicology 2004 tour, wasn't that the 8 biggest Tour of all time or something ?, the Cat will always put Bums on seats!

fidelity

This doesn't have anything to do with his music career
but just being an outsider looking in, I think he
could prove that he can love someone

UNCONDITIONAL (LOVE)


"I allow you the universal right of free will to walk your own path, creating steps or to sit a while if that is what is right for you. I will make no judgment of these steps, whether they are large or small, nor light or heavy or that they lead up or down, for this is just my viewpoint. I see you do nothing and might judge it to be unworthy. And yet, it may be that you bring great healing as you stand blessed by the light of God"

unconditional - not modified or restricted by reservations;



love never fails.

That he can be our little bitch and release every last god damn song that we ask for.

U guys are ALWAYS trying 2 get into the man personal life. I don't get that.
U don't know him on that level so what is the point of the personal stuff?

Graycap23 said:

I think you are right, he should just stop making
LOVE SONGS and stop pretending he knows what Love is.

did you not see the SOTT and Lovesexy videos![Cat looked mighty fine inthose outfits!]

Morris Day, "ohh larwd".....

Graycap23 said:

Did I specify marital fidelity anywhere in my response? No...

The definition of fidelity according to M-W.com is "a. the quality or state of being faithful b. accuracy in details"


This could apply to many aspects of P's life/career. How many protege/side projects has he started and not finished? Or not being faithful in terms of promotion, or business ventures; or yes, personal life.
