Goodbye, New Funk Order

Dearest New Funk Order members and Prince.org members,

After a good year of learning, sharing, understanding, and meeting many new friends, I have decided to leave the New Funk Order, due to irreconcilable differences between me and the "NFO guy" (Prince.org user "NFO").

Also, I own rights to the trade-name "(The) New Funk Order", so the project will no longer be called "(The) New Funk Order". Please contact Prince.org user "NFO" or "Yamomma" for the new project's name and for new details.

I do not own the NFO visual art, I only own my own music and the New Funk Order name.

From what information I have received, the site should remain exactly the same, only with a different name and leadership.

This was not a choice I wanted to make, but was a choice I was forced to make, because I cannot compromise my personal ethics and beliefs.

All Christian artists are welcome to join my new music community called "The One" (www.onemusicnetwork.tk) and to visit my website at www.jasondodson.org .

For further details about my decision, please feel free to email me at jasondodson_inc@yahoo.com .

Once again, I love you all, and I hope that you continue keeping music free. I will be around, and I will keep in contact with you to share news, written works, and new music.


Your friend,

Jason M. Dodson

9's, they don't have a link yet. When the site goes back up, they will be working out the bugs. I can only tell you what I know, which was the above.

Yes! And thank you for your support. We will continue to sell the cd as a New Funk Order project. Everything else will go on with a name change. The Project formerly known as The New Funk Order, lol.

You should really rehash it all here and drag out your dirty laundry in public!

There's no such thing as bad publicity!

No problem really, since it is available for free online. I say go for it. Thanks for the support, keep spreading the word. The money we make always goes towards keeping the site up. This is the first money we are making by the way.

Peace,

Vina

Yeah, this cd will go down in history like the Black Album. wink

I genuinely believe it will! In a decade when someone writes another Prince biography after his legendary "Prince plays theme tunes from the 80's" world tour of Minneapolis in 2012, they will mention the NFO project! That's cool about the CD... maybe I'll burn a couple of taster tracks and let hem know where they can purchase a copy. It's better than any crap that'sbeing played on today's radio stations

That would be interesting to see.

That is the whole point of this project. Music is not free because the artist is not free to release it as they see fit, and therefore the listener is not allowed access to a world of music that exists outside of the industry's parameters.
