Except most people don't give a shit...it"s sad really

Give a shit about what in particular? Mj's anniversary? Purple Rain anniversary?

I hope to God no one turns this into MJ vs Prince thread. It's so retarded. It balks of people not having the good sense to come up with something interesting to say.

I can't see the 26th anniversary of PR being anything relevant. 20, yes. 25, of course. 26? Eh, not so much. The real opportunities have passed for him to do anything interesting or noteworthy regarding a benchmark anniversary for that (or any previous album/project).

For me, I don't care about the anniversary of Purple Rain. What does it mean? 26 years is a lot time, and he's put out even better music. Prince was Prince well before that idea was ever born in his head, filmed, edited, and put in theaters.

I don't remember anyone hootin' and hollarin' about the anniversary of For You, Controversy, or 1999. (This is actually 30 years since Dirty Mind, which was actually recorded in May-June of 1980, and released in October.)

So no one has said whether they picked up the magazine or not. The site says it's on news stands now. Does anyone have it?

It's not out yet ernest. I was just at the newstand yesturday and Neicy Nash is the issue that's out now. Perhaps another 2 weeks or so it'll be out, unless I'm wrong.

I thought it was due out this coming Monday actually. The site says it's out though. That site is kind of unprofessional in some ways anyway, so I'm not too surprised at a flub even like that.

This is from that link posted at the top of this thread. This is part of the portion of the article posted on the first page of this thread. This of course, is not the entire interview, but apparently just a snippet from the "Read More" section:

[The org does not have permission to post the article or reproduce any parts of it. Please do not post any parts of the magazines article as this is copyright infringement snip - luv4u]

Sorry, luv4u it was a snippet from the online summary, not the actual interview from the magazine, which i would never have posted anyway, due to copyright infringement. Shouldn't the warning state that people shouldn't post images from that article as well, since there seems to be some images popping up on this thread, I mean wouldn't that be considered copyright infringement as well? Just sayin' smile

He is totally rocking that Siegfried & Roy, Wayne Newton Vegas Vibe! lol

I can almost hear him letting out one one those Little Richard 'woooooooo's' too.

I wonder if Ebony has figured out they were suckered yet. Even I know that's really just a bad Prince imitator at a pool hall amateur show.

Worst journalism ever!

I'm sure that if this "were" an impersonator he would Not need a teleprompter as some people U idolize do.

Question to anyone who might know. Does Tavis Smiley have anything to do with ebony/jet?

I thought i saw his name on the cover under "The World According to Prince". hmm Maybe not .

My eyes aren't what they used to be.

Prince did an interview with a woman at Record World. They talked about whatever, then he asked her: "Does your pubic hair go up to your navel?" At that moment, we thought maybe we shouldn't encourage him to do interviews.

Either he is going to have magazine interview, or not. Because some people online are getting confused..

Remember there are other people online looking at the org. So think about that you are his fans.

Ebony Magazine is owned by Johnson Publishing. They also own Jet Magazine. Here is their bio from their site:

Johnson Publishing Company, Inc. (JPC) is the world's largest African-American-owned and-operated publishing company. With established businesses, all at the top of their industries, in publishing, cosmetics and fashion, JPC brands are household names and, more importantly, trusted sources to African-Americans around the globe.

The late publisher and chairman, John H. Johnson, established the privately held company in November 1942 with NEGRO DIGEST. What started as nothing more than a dream and a $500 loan on his mother's furniture has turned into a multimillion dollar empire. He died in August 2005. His daughter, Linda Johnson Rice, is Chairman & CEO.

Through its brands, which include EBONY and JET magazines, Fashion Fair Cosmetics and Ebony Fashion Fair, Johnson Publishing Company has always aimed at increasing African-Americans' pride in themselves by presenting their past and present achievements to America and to the world. This has been done by portraying the Black American experience in all its dynamics through the medium of printed words, images, cosmetics and fashion. Through the years the company has also labored to provide irrefutable proof to millions of Black Americans, young and old, that their dreams can and do come true.

The entire Johnson Publishing Company family shares a deep commitment to meet consumer demands by producing quality products. Because of this commitment, JPC brands thrive while giving inspiration and hope to millions.

Johnson Publishing Company is headquartered in Chicago but has a global reach with offices in New York, DC, London and Paris.

LOL! It's always tricky because we'd really like to check out the latest updates here, but that means having to wade through all the rambling from the "special" people who crawl out of the woodwork whenever Prince does something newsworthy, lol

Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise.
