How close was he to Sir and President Nelson?

People say he was cool around children, so I was wondering what he was like to his full-blood (eh) nephews. I don't recall seeing pics of them together, but I've heard that President made the 20TEN album cover.

His name is nowhere on that album.

Do we know who made the cover?

Well, I don't know who this royal "we" is, but yes I do. (not hard to find, silly). razz

I believe McGuan was one of his clothing designers at the time, who came up with the shirt design. There was an interview with her about that. There is also a tidbit on the Org about her & 20Ten.


(honestly i love a great gif)

The graphic of Prince on the 20TEN cover is a clothing sketch by Debbie McGuan - it wasn't originally intended to be an album cover. Fun fact - his entire face wasn't originally part of the drawing. Prince liked it and so Anthony edited it together as the album cover.

Fun fact number 2 : Anthony also did complete box set artwork for 20TEN Deluxe which included full lyrics for every song and accompanying graphics.

I'd like to see that! Or better yet hear it...

Do you happen to know what the track list for the deluxe set was?

OK, can we move on and discuss how close he was to his nephews?

It was recently discussed on here, but I forget if a real list was given. Search 20Ten Deluxe. It was just a few short months ago, if memory serves.

I don't think I've ever seen anything telling us this. Maybe Tyka will go into it at some point? Or hopefully someone does know and will post.

Welcome to "the org", Mumio…they can have you, but I'll have your love in the end nod
