There's another thread with him on the cover of Blitz magazine...and I think that's white...

I'm just glad to see him still getting shine and the demographics of the magazine don't matter.

I forgot he's getting a Lifetime Achievement Award at the BET awards..that might have something to do with it

Wow you really said that!!!??? You have gotta be kidding...right??? Did you say this because he is Black and it is a real problem for you that he is??? Would it make a difference if he were green or better yet purple??? Prince can be on any magazine it doesn't matter. But as soon as he is identified as a Blackman oooohhh no let's not have that....now he's got something against white magazines!!

Your statement was a reaction without any forethought....

Perhaps I should have put it another way!!!! How about a really IN DEPTH interview in a SERIOUS music magazine like Mojo, Q, Rolling Stone, Uncut, Word magazine, etc.????

Ebony and Jet are, to a certain extent, very tabloidy and in the same vein as the National Enquirer and US Weekly!!!

U obviously do not read Ebony or Jet and your views on these magazines are misjudged and irresponsibly reviewd as such in your evidence studied.

To compare Ebony and Jet to the Enquirer reveals your mentality and your agenda....take your baiting somewhere else. rolleyes

Just a mention that Ebony & Jet are owned by the same publishing company... and they share the same website... ebonyjet.com... So not entirely surprising for Prince to show up in Jet too

White magazines? Quite ignorant to call the majority of the magazines that arent ebony which is blatently aimed at african-americans WHITE magazines.

It truly is a stupid comment - There are 2 major black magazines in the world and someone is hung up on black progress so much that they complain that a BLACK legend (sorry, Prince IS black) appears on the cover?

Spoken like a truly uninformed white person (I dont care what color you are). Neither of those puiblications are tabloids. When black artists were having trouble getting on the cover of their on albums, Ebony was all there was for black people.

Both Ebony and Jet are owned by the same parent company (Johnson Publishing). It could be that these are just two variations of pretty much the same interview.
