I've been thinking about what a miserable, depressed, cunt Trent Reznor really is.
If he is supposed to be a Prince fan, even in the slightest, as some of you say he is, that makes his comment even worse.
Can you imagine Prince saying this about Stevie Wonder's latest output? Miles Davis in the latter part of his career?
I don't think that anyone here would argue that those guys later works were/are as good as what they produced during their artistic peak.

Reznor is classless dick.
He is exactly who we thought he was

I'm not saying that!

No way I'm gonna fight for him no matter how wrong he is!!!

With the whole INTERNET website crap he's done, i was pretty mad!!!

But if your a fan for a long time, and you wanna see a Sign O The Times II, it never gonna happen... that's all... He's done all of that! He's moved on!

So maybe in that ASPECT yeah. NEW fans are the ones who matter right NOW!

I really think Prince needs to pick up that envelope he pushed off the table, brush it off, and start pushing it again!

He's actually giving Prince credit by saying he thiks he has it in him to still be creating inventive, creative and brilliant music.

Damn! Now he's miserable, depressed and a cunt. All because he said if Prince has so many great songs in his much talked about vault, he should try using them because his current output sucks, which it has! disbelief

I told y'all he was brave, these folks will be calling for his head on a platter before the night's over.

'Cause he wants to?

I don't know, I guess I just don't understand the extreme distaste for negative criticism amongst Prince fans. (Unless they're talking about someone other than Prince, that is.) Reznor voiced an opinion. It's no more important than that. You may not be aware, but he's somewhat famous for letting his feelings rip.

Just as Prince is somewhat famous for not acknowledging the presence of other human beings when he deigns them beneath his notice.

I don't actually buy into the notion that one has to be a musician (talented or not) in order to criticize someone else's music. I brought up the stunning hypocrisy of dismissing Reznor's opinion by saying his music sucks simiply in order to point out the stunning hypocrisy of dismissing Reznor's opinion by saying his music sucks. If you think for a second, "Prince is more talented than Reznor so Reznor should shut up" is not really a coherent position. It invalidates all positive opinions we might hold as well, rendering all of our presence on this site invalid. End thread. End site. FAIL.

I realize I'm yelling at a wall here.


I thnink, it would be like me saying the guy that came in 20th place at the Masters, sucks. Now, I can't hit a golf ball consistantly. Wouldn't it sound stupid of me to criticize after finding out that fact? Yeah, I played 3 sports in high school and 2 in college, I have a championship ring on my finger, and several students I've coached are playing college ball right now, but my golf game sucks!


Why would it sound any stupider than you saying they guy played well? Are you suddenly worthy just because you're a booster instead of a detractor? Why? I don't understand why positive opinions from nobodies are supposed to carry weight while negative opinions from nobodies are automatically meaningless.

Be serious for a minute. What if Prince was quoted saying that Stevie's last few albums have sucked?
Would you respect him for that?

No, I got all that from actually reading what he said...

Trent said:
"I’m not Prince or Rivers Cuomo who brags about having hundreds of great songs,” Reznor said. “And to that I would say, Prince, if you have a hundred great songs or a thousand, how about picking a few and putting them on your record that you’ve put out because your last several have sucked. Same for you, Rivers. I say that constructively, you know.”

Really??? Really??? Was that supposed to be funky??? I mean you have been dissing the latest Prince work for that??? I don't know how old "Closer" is, but really??? So, I'll respond this way. Why would Prince want to make that??? What is it about "Closer" that is so much better than "Dreamer," or "Dance for Me?" Now, of course, it is all about subjective taste, but really??? I just can't fathom why Prince would want to make a record like that. Again, that's your taste. "Closer" is what you think a good record is, and you have your right to that. However, I'll take anything off Lotus and MPLS over "Closer."

Lik Anxiety stated, apples n oranges. But dont dog Closer, that song is awesome. It is definitely funky too in its own lil' industrial way.

You ought to hear Maxwell's gospel-like version of it too. Yes, Maxwell.

He's full of shit.

And you know as well as I do that if Prince started releasing songs from the vault as new material. People would be jumping on his ass saying Prince has to release stuff from the vault because he can't write new material anymore!!!

That's why he's not releasing stuff from the vault because he still has the ability to write new material. Trent knows it too, but he's just being an ass.

How would he like it if Prince said that he should start releasing outtakes from the Pretty Hate Machine sessions, because he last albums really sucked?

If Prince said that people here would be blasting him for having a such a big ego?

Don't try to pass off "you need to release older music because your new music sucks" as constructive criticism because it's not!!!

=====
Yes, it is apples and oranges, and I acknowledged that in my post. But, when so many people are dissing the latest Prince efforts, I expect something better than "Closer." So, SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy thinks that Lotus and MPLS is weak. I think that "Closer" is weak or uninteresting to me. In fact, I've never been moved by Reznor's work, and I've been exposed to it for years. It simply proves the point that maybe the people who feel that Prince has lost it or no longer has it or who are upset at how he treats his fans or thinks that he creates crappy websites should invest their time in celebrating another artist rather than spending their time trying to tear down an artist.

When I used to write book reviews, I never published negative reviews. I would have the journal send me at least three books, and I only discussed the books that I thought were well crafted because it seems more constructive to me to analyze or celebrate what has been well done, even if it is just an opinion rather than telling someone what's wrong with something. And, I acknowledge that my way is simply an ideology that can differ from someone else. Now as a poet and fiction writer, I expect to get good and bad reviews, but I don't spend my time trying to convince people who don't like my work to like my work. I concentrate on getting my work to people who like it because in the end, it is all taste. So, why not frequent a site where "Closer" is more of the taste? And as for Maxwell covering the song, good for Maxwell. It still does not cause what I just heard to move me in any way. That's why I visit Prince.org and not Reznor.org.

Trent is still sore about the time he passed Prince in the hallway and P ignored him when he said hello. He more than likely didn't know him or was just being Prince. This was some time in the nineties.

I haven't kept up with his latest offerings, but that Saul Williams "Niggy Tardust" record he produced was amazing!

A question or Two for the Fams and Haters...

Who will be remembered and revered the most Prince or Razor?

Who has been referred to as a Genius countless times by his fellow musicians, peers etc...Prince or Twent?

Do Razor blades views actually matter, I mean come on...who the fuck is he, is he known outside the US of A? Its not as if a 'musical great' had passed these remarks, he is obviously very jealous and seeking attention and devoid of any class what so ever to make petty comments about a fellow 'artist'.

Lotusflow3r and MPLS are fantastic albums and from what I can gather I am not the only one who thinks so. I have been a listener of the mans music for 26 years now and to me there as good as any he has put out so go fuck an orange.
