SO Lezama u decide whats stupid and whats not? who gave u this awesome power? most of my post are brutally honest and as jack nicholson would say "u cant handle the truth"

Stupid is subjective. So I dont need "awesome power" to make such judgement. However when someone makes statements every day like "prince is nothing more than a Hendrix knock off....Hell Prince cant even fuck with Jesse Johnson let alone hendrix" and "yes im the best musician here!" we all know that you're trolling. Even YOU know that you're trolling. So move along now..

I just gave two examples of your troll posts. There are many more if you want them to be retrieved. And your quote stated Jesse Johnson as well, don't try to edit your hilarious statements now. Or maybe you don't understand what "wipe the floor with someone" means. Anyone in here can search your posting history to see the collective ridiculousness of things you've stated.

comparing prince and pharrell is like argueing over which of 2 dung heaps smells better .. pop music is at an all time low for a genre that was never musically respectable in the first place .. prince used to be the exception to the rule but now he is just another log in the toilet

Sounds like you've got both a selective reading and a reading comprehension problem. Perhaps you should step away from the internet.

Let's take it all the way and hope that these satellite, streaming and FM fads die once and for all so we can hear music the way it was MEANT to be heard: on the AM band on a transistor radio.

Prince dosen't need another hit but

One of the main reasons this isn't a hit to me is It lacks the energy the techno songs on the radio have. And the chorus sounds so corny even when I compare it to what's on the radio. Not to mention He"s not using his strenghs on the song!

Usually Prince songs have elements of funk rock or rnb in them. This track got none of these elements which makes me surprised so many approve this song here. It's like he or Joshua dumbed down the music just for the song to fit the radio which is disapointing considering he's supposed to be all about "real music by real musicians".

I hope people are checking out the chart thread, because you can have an opinion on whether the song is good or not, but the song IS getting a considerable amount of airplay especially in L.A. where it's already Top 40 (#16) at CBS Radio affiliate KAMP-FM 97.1 (somewhat surprising since I thought the push would come from Clear Channel stations because the song debuted on their iHeartRadio service). The way things tend to work is if a song does well in a major market it spreads across the country with other stations in the same chain (CBS).

BTW Sylvia Rhone was just appointed the new president of Epic (reporting to chairman/CEO L.A. Reid).

I hope it does well, because I like Prince and why not? But it's one of the worst and least Prince-ly songs of his career. Funknroll is so much better.

Agree 100% with this statement.

I'm seeing this promoted in lots of different places, so I guess this is the difference P was looking for if he's truly left behind Kobalt because they didn't push anything he released through them.

What did he release through kobalt?

Breakfast Can Wait and Pretzelbodylogic. I'm not sure if Fixurlifeup was an official Kobalt Release or not.

Prince impresses the younger generation the same way he impressed the older ones..jaw dropping songs or performances. I get a lot of people commenting on how bad ass his When My Guitar Gently Weeps performance on YouTube is. Medicare throwaways impresses no one and NEVER become "hits"

Yes it was. Kobalt released Fixurlifeup, Breakfast Can Wait/The Breakfast Experience EP, Pretzelbodylogic and the Prince executive produced album by Liv Warfield "The Unexpected" (all digital only). The group reportedly co-managed by Prince, KING was signed to Kobalt as well but who knows what will happen with that now.

Wow, so there was still a bridge he hadn't yet burned.

thedance said:

there was a time when I was buying every Prince release on cd singles.

Not anymore:

Rock N Roll Love Affair,
ScrewDriver,

FixUrlifeUp,

PretzelBodyLogic.

Those singles/ songs are crap, crap, crap.

I don't even care to own these at ALL....

I thought I was the only one that felt that way.
