Here is a video in which Kurtis Blow explains that Prince paid for the "King Holiday" video, which was for the song produced by Kurtis Blow and features many R&B and Hip Hop stars of that era: https://www.youtube.com/w...xIsaO-nRQ. I apologize if this has been posted before, but after a very brief seach I didn't find it. Of course, I'm sure the mods will remove if it's already been posted.

That's really awesome. Thanks for sharing!

It was, and a search shows that: http://prince.org/msg/7/429552

But it's a terribly cool story.

Wow.. I never heard this story before.

I never saw this before either... thanks for posting. Just another example of how amazingly generous and giving Prince was!
