PODCASTJUICE Mayte was my Boss.

Working with Prince in the 90's

Jacqui Thompson was head management for Prince’s Paisley Park Enterprises in 1997.

Jacqui oversaw all merchandising functions for 1-800- NEW-FUNK and helped manage Prince’s tours, promotional tours, and public relations activities

If you could give us the gist of what she said. Its a very long interview.

Also, her job description sounds more like she worked for P not Mayte. Why would Mayte be her boss?

Mayte was her boss when she was working on 1-800-New Funk. She did not work for her for long. It is a really good interview. Prince had some very smart people working for him.

If she worked for Matte she didn't mention it but she mentioned Mayte a few times in passing and mentioned Mani working there but nothing about either one or having any type of working relationship with either one.

It was mentioned in passing that when she came on board she worked for her a little while.

Why would anyone described in a recent book review as being on the "powerless end of a power couple" have anyone working for her? LOL.

It must have been a brief sentenced. Because I got more out of the interviewee saying Mayte would come in and say, my husband wants...than any feel for what it was like working for Mayte except emphasizing it was a lot of work. Nice interview, glad it was posted, I gleaned a thing or 2 from the unspoken. And seeing folks having the opportunity to stretch their wings and expand their horizons. Cool. Not a drinker but I'll keep a look out for that tequila.

Look this lady worked for Mayte for a hot minute and 1-800 was such a fuck up that might explain why this lady was not working for Mayte for long and how Mayte became powerless real fast.

At the 28 minute mark she states that Mayte was her boss. This lady worked for Mayte for a hot minute and 1-800 was such a fuck up that might explain why this lady was not working for Mayte for long and how Mayte became powerless real fast.
