Just finished reading this article and really liked it, thought I´d share it with the org:

Nothing new or groundbreaking in it but pretty much sums up how I´ve been feeling about Prince lately.

Great article..

"He’s an original. He’s a legend. He is now and always will be – Prince."

Sure, there are critics who feel his best days are past and he needs to ease up on the legal chokehold he has on his music. There’s a reason why you don’t see many Prince samples, if there are any at all. Now that he’s a Jehovah Witness, he’s given some truly bizarre interviews and is well-known for um, eccentric moments, like the story of his never to be completed film with writer/director Kevin Smith. (YouTube it.)
Yet for all his idiosyncrasies, Prince gets respect because he never skimps on what has defined him – his music. If you go to see him you’ll need comfortable shoes and a good babysitter because you won’t get home until dawn. You’ll see him play for 2 or more hours at the official show and if you can hang and you’re lucky, for hours more at the aftershow. You’ll get to see one of the true artistic geniuses of this or any musical time who is still at the peak of his craft who’s never sold or pimped himself out for commercial purposes. "
