Just guessing here ...
either (A) the name of Prince's new body of work, The Chocolate Invasion" first single "Musicology;" (B) another way of giving props to real musicians who play real music (a k a what the NPGMC 2001 joint said at the end); or (C) taking a page out of Chaka Khan's retail line of "chaka-lotes" chocolate. sweet tooth edit  [This message was edited Mon Oct 13 6:38:50 PDT 2003 by a2grafix] | |

Or (D) NPGMC will soon add a "Candy" area to the Retail section 
Sorry, I just realised a2grafix did that joke as (C).  edit[This message was edited Mon Oct 13 6:48:20 PDT 2003 by KeithyT] Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad. | |

I knew I should have chosen an NPGMC user name that started with "A"; I never get these emails on time. "That...magic, the start of something revolutionary-the Minneapolis Sound, we should cherish it and not punish prince for not being able to replicate it."-Dreamshaman32 | |

I just got the mail, so I guess I'm happy.  "That...magic, the start of something revolutionary-the Minneapolis Sound, we should cherish it and not punish prince for not being able to replicate it."-Dreamshaman32 | |

The Chocolate Invansion was the title of an essay published on NPGMC. This essay outlined the benefits of having a music club - being able to buy cds directly from the artist, dvds delivered to your door, etc.
The essay described everything you would want as a member of NPGMC. I wish it were all true. | |

Every artist sells merchandise - why can't P? Im not mad that he's putting up merchandise, but all he does is put up Crap like clothes.. why not music? Sh*t, if fans wanted to buy Prince clothing, form a retail outlet, if u are runnin a MUSIC site, put music up.. plain and simple.. | |

I really hope it's NOT the title of his new album.  | |

it would just be nice if he would just use his site to give info on his work, rather than pretend its an istallment of 'the matrix'. you know, the shit was cool 12 years ago, when i was fourteen, but its become a little old now. just get on with the music, mate! | |

As much as he said he was "in a matrix" regarding record labels.. he is leaving his fans in a matrix on that rediculous site of his. Takin money and not updatin his empty "house" Maybe his site signifies what he feels inside? | |

Nah dude - Ive been having the same problem since about half-way thru year 2...nobody seems to know what the problem might be at NPGMC...its even harder to explain because I get some emails now and again and they have evrified that my account is set up properly. Mystery!!! | |

They're going to start selling chocolate! I hope they have dark...
...knowing NPGMC they'll probably make it in the shape of Larry Graham. At least I'll get to bite his preachin' head off. (PS. I like the guy's bass, it's just...you know the rest...) | |

Maybe it is a candy store?
Prince Skittles - Taste the Rainbow Children? Golden Larry Grahams? Cookie Jars and Cream? Cadbury's Flake - One Bite Alone? Old Fishermans friends for sale? So Dark Chocolate? Milk Trays Of The World? Baby I'm a Starburst? Treats On This Side? And of course, Tootsie Pops! Or will he open a Purple supermarket? The Other Side Of The Pilau? 4 The Beers In Your Eyes? When the Bud Lights Go Down? Cloreen Smokey Baconskin? Strawberry Jam Of The Year? Cherry Cherry Wine? Ok. I'll stop now.  . | |

That they are doing. It may not be the music you want but it isn't "crap like clothes." Like many have said - don't buy it if you don't want it. I have 90% of the music on Chocolate Invasion & I'm going to buy it. I've been waiting for the NPGMC compilation cds since the club was first announced. Three years of waiting. Its about time is my complaint. What took so long - this should have been released in May of this year as soon as Year 3 started. Should have been an eight cd set with N.E.W.S. included. | |

True mate, but what do you think sdldawn wanted? New Music, or re-released music? . | |
