HYPOCRISY AT ITS BEST - The Bria Dilemma

okay settle down children, settle down.. let me breakitdown4yaonetime...
I just saw the Bria interview online and....

P is always preaching about owning the 'masters', 'creating' music..... u want us to believe that Bria chick wrote those songs u *handed* to her P? bored2

OY.. bored2 that girl don't write, she said she writes and WHO would want to claim those horrible songs anyways??

Dang elevator music at its worst.


I still love u P, but I gotta keep u on ur toes u know! stickpoke (P in the blue and me in the yellow)

In reality you, nor I, have any idea of the publishing, the songwriting or the process by which Bria's album was made. Prince stated that he is taken care of, as is Bria, with the monies from this project (meaning simply that both are being paid fairly for the sales of the set).

And owning the masters has nothing to do with the quality of the songwriting on the album.

We all know Prince wrote it. Prince's Proteges should be renamed Prince's Puppets.

And Prince.org should be renamed PuppetMaster.org

The other thing is P was talking about The State Of The Black Union.

So why didn't he make the same CD offer with Tamar or Shelby or Beverly Knight? When he says "We are taken care of" it could have included them. But since he is showing his Jack Johnson side it's with Bria.

Sorry. I didn't see the thread but we can all see what's really going on. Like The Bible says: "The truth will set you free or it will piss you off."
