Record Companies

All this pressure on Prince to deliver the goods. The whole point of being free is to create and release at his own pace...we're just as bad as the record companies, limiting and restricting the artists to a time limit...u can't put boundaries on art.

Current fans are the opposite. Prince used to deliver MORE than the record company wanted, because the rec.company wanted more profit. Now he releases less than his fans want, becuase now HE wants more profit. prince=record company now. simple as that.

Someone like Prince, has "art" locked up in his vault that he could sell to us to passify us until his new material is complete. I would love to have a few more rehearsals, soundchecks and outtakes sitting at home on my shelf. What about u.
