I REALLY CAN'T STAND SOME OF THE SO CALLED PRINCE "FANS"

...Who bitch and moan about P's latest stuff and say he hasn't made great music since the 80's or whatever. It's like...are u listening to what i'm listening to? The guy is still making some of the most incredible music I've ever heard.

They'll never be another 1999, Purple Rain or SOTT....so get over it! That's why I love Prince's music and addicted to it, because I can put any music of his depending on my mood. RC, Musicology, Planet Earth, 3121 and Lotus Flow3r are amongst some of the best albums of this decade.

Ps, I'm just listening to Planet Earth...and i'm loving it!!!!!

oh sorry

may u live 2 see the dawn

a yo prince im really happy for you imma let you finish but Michael Jackson had one of the best records of all time!

RC, Musicology, Planet Earth, 3121 and Lotus Flow3r will take 10 years atleast then i can say if they where good or very good

It's hip to be square

Can't stand them either...

Bitchiness seems to be taking over the planet...

Let the bitch's bitch, all I want to do is Dance, play Prince's music, Sex, Romance.
The amazing thing about Prince's music is that it's always evolving but still unmistakingly him.

(currently listening to remix of La, La, La, He, He, Hee)

people like what they like and they don't like what they don't like.

i'm not going to be fake with my opinions just because i'm worried someone on the internet is going to call me a "hater".

i'm also not going to pretend to be hipper-than-thou about what i DO like because there's some cheezy-ass prince music i LOVE, and when i am in the mood i can FAM OUT with the best of them.

so screw all y'all.

Is it wrong for someone to be a total fan of the early era 1978-1994 and not a fan of the later years - 1995 - now?
They can be considered (IMO) two completely different styles and sound.
There should be a clear and defined line on which you're a fan of, 80's Prince, 90's Prince or 00's Prince?
This should be the case for all artists and bands that record and release music over a series of decades, their sound always changes, as it should.
I'm an 80's Prince fan BTW! That it includes 1978-1989, maybe to 92.
I'm I going to get bitch slapped for admiting that??

..prince has what i want...he has a BIG idea...a dream...that is why L-I-F-E is so much more meaningful..
.
...it gives me focus..a direction..it gives me something 2 strive 4...
.
..prince is like me...if the big-idea is shot down...we simply pick it up...dust it off...and get moving again..
.
...every step 2ward the fulfillment of the dream..will bring immense meaning and satisfaction..

Politicians should dress like race car drivers, then we'd know who their corporate sponsors are.

So "fans" are hellbent on comparing everything Prince does to something he did 10 or 20 years ago. I appreciate the new music and I love the older stuff but don't really see the need to compare the two. When he does dgo for a sound that is truly reminiscent of his older work then he gets bashed for trying to hard or messing it up totally. So which is it? Do you want him as he is now or as he was then?

No it's not wrong at all...

It's just about the R.E.S.P.E.C.T or not... of the man & his immense work !

I agree,some people say "Better With Time" is the worst song on Lotusflow3r,it's the best 2 me.

we are entitled to listen to whichever era Prince that we want to. SO what I don't care for his newer stuff? I personally think it's crap but that is what makes his fanbase so great-the diversity.

I like all the differing opinions, no one has to agree with anyone, just has to be civil in their discourse.

What Anx said is spot on. Don't fake it bbs!

I think it's that Prince set the bar pretty high from 1978-1989

I think if Prince wasn't so visual it would be different for fans
I think if there wasn't that UPTOWN EROTIC CITY Paisley Park vision cohesiveness with Proteges sounds looks and clothing, dance moves
that whole 'underground world' then Princes music wouldn't have such high expectations, but he probably wouldn't have been as big either

I'm one that is totally turned on by the PRINCE SOUND, I was so excited to hear 'Minneapolis Sound' as well as Lotus Flow3r because it was supposed to be a rock album. I totally enjoy both albums, but I've said this before, I still have a certain expectation from Prince:videos and a certain expression of the albums

PRINCEs SOUND got me hooked because it was totally different from others:example of that sound:I Don't Want 2 Leave U, Sexuality, Head, Uptown, Dear Michaelangelo, I Wanna Be Your Lover, Let's WOrk, Love Bizarre, All the Critics, Nasty Girls, Screams of Passion, Yes, the Walk, Susannah's Pajamas, the Belle of St Mark, Noon Rendezvous, Computer Blue, the Beautiful Ones, Erotic City, Sex Shooter, Dance Electric, Sugar Walls, Madhouse Ice Cream Castles and so much more from Dream Factory, SOTT, Black Album,

there is this sound that just pulls me in and I tend to connect only with post Prince albums/songs that have that sound

I understand that people's tastes vary widely, and if someone doesn't like an album I like then fair enough. I do have a problem with those who say that a certain album or song is a waste of a CD or it's so bad it shouldn't have been made etc. because it's just ignorant to treat your opinion like fact.

I've said it before on here somewhere, to expect a man who has written as many songs as he has to create songs that are as original as his early work is just delusional, nobody can do that. The creative well of a a certain field does dry up eventually. There's only so much one man can do before repeating himself or lowering the bar to prevent something similar occuring during a song.

& as for the "better in the 80's" comments, I honestly think that Prince's 80's music reminds a lot of people here about their childhood/early 20's & brings back amazing memories for them, so no matter what kind of music Prince makes now it can never amount to the music he did in the 80's because it doesn't have the sentimental value it has for those certain people.

Prince.org is a cemetery where folks mourn Prince instead of celebrate him and his music. Last time I checked, Prince isn't dead yet.

Aren't we all entitled to have our own opinion and taste?

Don't abuse children or else they turn out like me

Well, I think U2's best music was from the 80's and the last thing they did that was good was from the early 90's. But, ya know what, I neither buy their new stuff nor go to their fansites to bitch about them. I just don't care anymore. It's easy, Letitgo....

waits for Riverpoet or Wall...

Prince use to have balls....now he has religion. - Nothinbutjoy
