He's terribly unprofessional.

wow. that was exciting. a teaser site counting down to a teaser site. well at least thats innovative...

Well, that was dissapointing. At least 3 fans got something out of it.

"Under construction"

Wow! lol!

1-Get it, you want more stuff on the website like most of us.
2-I agree the surreal images on the Tv are quiet weird.
3-The black screen make you more.. unpatience.
4-You wanna buy stuff like most of us (I think).
5-You confuse some people patience with the use of brains.

You don't have to be smart or intelectual to enjoy a expanded website, a website doesn't have to be overelbaorated to have appeal.

Calm down, you will get your fix.

>>Maybe it gets better in time


All these clouds... it's the storm before the sunshine:)
You have to believe:)

What a false alarm! If I could get to LA at that time, $77 expense is affordable this month, or I could be sitting in front of computer on time, such everyday people matters are nothing to regard for you? What kind of lessons do you get from your God? Too small? No, you don't think like that. So, what about an apology? When the Empire Ballroom show had to be cut without encore, 7/7/07 show had to be ended in the middle, you just promised another time. What about this time? Does your God forbid you to do that? I don't believe you would lose anything even if you did. On the contrary, you would get much more. But..., yeah, I may be saying too much... What do you think really?

Well, I'm afraid it looks like I'm one in a million here who disagree:

God knows if I want my new music from Prince like the rest of us, me too I've been glued to my screen [this one and LotusFlow3r's] all this time in search of news/updates/new music, etc.

But I don't think that Prince [as any artist] owes us anything. He doesn't have a contract with us to produce certain things at certain times. The only deadlines he has as an artist are his own.

I think it's up to us to be mature enough not to take everything we see online/in the media/entertainment business too literally and too seriously - just like life:)

Take your time, Prince, there's nothing worse than a creative/artistic job rushed.
I'll wait [till the end of time:)]

Believe it or not I actualy don't want a fix. I want him to live up to his "promise" and I want him to be more fanfriendly. A little more consideration, that's all. But even that is too much to ask.

I allready have all the "fixes" I need, and everything from the last 4 years are almost untouched and unheard by me, because it generaly lacks quality.

If you are anouncing to open a site, using words like "a new universe" etc, it would be prudent if there is actualy some content when you do open. Or simple wait longer untill your ready. But don't hype shit, that is not worth hyping.

conciousone said:

Wait...you WERE talking to Prince...

Well... this is it. So it's almost nothing. And why do i feel a litlle dissapointed? Because there was a teaser all month and now there's another teaser. Disco Jellyfish is terrible. I mean ...gee... this is real simplistic not even funkin' music. And i can tell u i'm in to anything. Anything!! But this is a demo of a eighteen-year old kid who just found out that he can press a few buttons on his computer and discovers that 'it sounds nice'. Even the guitar in it is from the level of this popular Wii Guitar hero. I mean..electro-funk? Man, do your homework!
Anyway, i'm still looking forward for some new tunes and downloads etc but it is really a letdown. The website is pathetic and i can't imagine that our man is proud about it. It's a tool to sell something, but it is as old-fashioned (in a bad way that is) as my grandma (and she passed away long time ago).

See what monday brings us.

this might be a dumb question, but is anyone having a problem viewing the whole web page on Internet Explorer?? I seem to be only gettin a small section of the screen, not that theres that much 2 see, but im wondering should i use a different browser to view it properly?

style trumps substance again.

bravo Prince. good thing Housequake shut down. there was a real risk of there actually being one resource on the web out there where you could actually inform yourself on Prince or his music. whew! thank god that was taken care of before Prince's new official site opened.



lord...

The plan since the beginning has been to show the work to the press today

how nice to let us know, after we've been hyping ourselves into a frenzy for
a month. and why? because there was no official information. it would've been
easy enough to state this from the beginning would it not?

i'm so glad i didn't wait around last night to see what was going to happen.

to add insult to injury funkenberry tells you guys that prince will be having
the press and assorted shallow socialites over at his house for an hour long
concert and an exclusive stroll through of his new website and music.



putting up yet another track [disco jellyfish] is damage control imo because
finally someone in prince's camp might have thought about the shitload of us
waiting for the site to open up in january, because, you know, that's what a
person might presume reading "a new galaxy january 2009", lol.

it's npgmc all over again. release something at the last minute, or even some
minutes after the deadline. like an after thought, not like an exclusive but
more as a means of saying "here, now shut the fuck up".

none of this would matter one iota if there would be a simple press release,
or even a few lines on his site to clearly state what the plan was. it's not
rocket science for crying out loud. it's webdesign and releasedates.

"disco jellyfish" is nice. it's probably the same idea as the npg maxi single
where "the lubricated lady" segues out of "get off", like an external portion
stretching the song. more recent example would be "stt" / "brand new orleans"

but now we've heard

crimson and clover
4ever
colonized mind
wall of berlin
another like me
chocolate box
disco jellyfish
here i come
all this love
another boy

i think the longer we have to wait and the more snippets we hear the less
exciting any release is going to be. if this shit drags on for another 2
months we'll have heard 20 songs. out of a possible 30-36. lotusflower or
mplsound might be incredible albums and all but if you already know 50%
of it that kind of takes away from the experience of listening to it for
the first time.

i guess the only people being genuinely surprised by his new music and his
new webdesign are the press and boozy celebrities that he invites over to
his house. they're just showing up, caring or not caring, for the ride and
whatever comes their way is new to them and thrill of the moment.

fans however get to die of thirst by a dripping faucet drip....drip
.....drip.....
