His family, of course. Sounds like some of them relied completely on him and never made their own path to financial stability.

They are likely all penniless at the moment and have a massive responsibility. 20k is a paltry sum in comparison to how much these people are going to have to spend to make sure they get their due share.


Sorry but This is all princes fault for not having proper arrangements.

Ok so if George Lopez did that out of the kindness of his heart and because he was a fan...why the hell is he telling people about it neutral Not all money is good money. Now he wants publicity, recognition...what? neutral

Why do people think Prince owed his familly anything??? He made his own way. They had the opportunity to make their own.

Why were any of them relying on him for their lively hood? They were adults, your life is your own.

Maybe that is why there is no will. Maybe that was his last way to say to them, get off the gravy train and get it togehter yourselves.

It amazes me that people think it is up to rich relatives to take care of the ones that aren't.

Because of their half-baked mistakes, we get ice cream, no cake; all lies, no truth; is it fair to Kill the YOUTH ~~ Party Up

Yes. They've already had bills to pay for the cremation and catering for the service.

It's the same with all the really successful artists. The families totally rely on them financially. Half of that $20'000 were probably used for the purple gift boxes.

Seriously though, $20'000 is nothing, considering what they had to spend on the funeral etc. Plus I'm sure the upkeep at Paisley Park has to be dealt with while everything is getting sorted out.

I would hope that Prince was a better person and could rise above the shit that family members do...why would he just say a final fuck you to them and not leave a will...I dont see Prince being that cruel. He was alot of things, but not that.

I personally find it disrespectful that Prince fans are talking about Prince's BLOOD Family this way!That fans here are believing tabloid mess evil stories over his own family!This is NONSENSE! It's embarrassing enough that u believe this filth!But then to be disrespectul of Prince's own family is just plain stupid!I can't stand George Lopez. I think he is a phony! He claimed this sht with MJ giving his accuser money!I don't trust George Lopez cause he is friends with the Tabloid Media and the infamous Comedy Club owner in LA that introduced him to MJ's accuser Gavin Arvizo.George Lopez in my mind is a scumbag!

When Someone dies, his family should be the one to inherit what they leave behind! That is no different with Prince!

So am I reading this right that they relied on him for daily living expenses while he was alive? So he was supporting his entire extended family?

I do hope the family put loyal band friends of prince in charge of the music end though.Like Sheila, Wendy & Lisa/Susannah, & Susan Rogers ect. I can't think of anyone else right now but I would disagree with Sheila on keeping it private to never be heard. It's the only gift prince can leave behind for us, his fams!I do think we need people in charge of the music that new Prince best musically though!That would know best what he wanted in reguards to producing the music and albums together the way he would want to. That is hard but if its someone that knew him he best musically and creatively that would be ok in my mind to still respect him and what he would have wanted done with it.If they find he video will in the vault and Prince says he wants the music destroyed then I would have to say HELL NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! in that case.

I dont think Prince would have saved his music in the VAULT in the first Place if he didnt ever want the music to be heard at some point in life or death.If he didn't like a track that much, he would have erased/destroyed the recording or tracks already if he never wanted it to be heard at all!
