can u do a youtube video now about LEAVE PRINCE ALONE? u'll rank right up there with the britney dude

what u just said just spells doom 4 andy. prince has backed his protege's previously and made it either private or had the media guessing who was really behind it b4 he came out from the curtain. andy hasn't done that and become someone who the general public knows about 2 become successful yet

truth hurts huh?

Urgh I remember when he was doing this and I would cringe every time he would say that awful mess.

To be fair, I don't even think Prince is behind all that fb PR bullocks. I think these girls get overconfident, and then fall deep once they realise things aren't easy with Mr. Goodnight. I mean it's his ass that we want, not some wanna be fake singers.

It was Prince himself who compared Valente to Sade.

And as far as I know Allo wasn't talking in Princebonics until she became associated with Prince and joined his band. And he definitely calls the shots with anything he's involved in professionally so yeah, I think he's the one that was really pulling the strings and doing this stuff, not them.

Again - I think he MEANS well, but doesn't know anything about artist promotion, particularly female artists and the things he thinks up usually end up hurting them more in the end than furthering their careers.

Trust me, Prince is behind all of her FB posts and PR tricks. Prince stated that the internet is over, but he forgot to ad "that doesn't mean it is over for me". I will correct myself and say he is most probably behind most of the PR tricks because I cannot prove for sure he is behind all of her FB comments. I don't reveal a big secret if I say, he is also sometimes pulling the strings on twitter and Dr.Funkenberry's site.

I find it highly amusing when I read some say that Prince doesn't give an ish about what's been been said about him on the internet, it is getting more and more obvious he does care and he does check regularly so that he can plan his next move according to the reactions he gets from his fans. And if things don't turn out the way he wanted, he gets offended, very, very offended.

if he wasn't aware or care about what's going on in the internet world, he wouldn't have a email address 2 do interviews with

I am sorry to say but is no logic in what HonestMan13 is saying. What is the basis of you saying that everyone here who is complaining about Andy Allo had bought most protege projects without hearing a single note? Do you know this for a fact or are you just assuming hoping this is the truth?

I don't think that people would pay money to buy and NOT listen to something they don't like. The Lotusflow3r project was a different issue.

With the exception of Vanity 6, The Time & Sheila E. which of the protege acts got major airplay and video rotation when their records dropped? Almost none of them. The Family came the closest with 'Screams Of Passion'. Unless you bought the music you weren't going to hear it anywhere else. There were no downloads and snippets. You either bought it or didn't. How many protege albums did you buy off the Prince association alone? Madhouse is the perfect example we all copped it for the Prince association and had no idea who was in it or what it was all about until we dropped the needle on the record.

Maybe i was lucky to live near decent radio stations. I heard ALL that on radio, I saw Madhouse videos on BET. I only bought stuff I heard and liked.

see what i mean

hey i can do that emote too! what do u know?

i like andy. she's talented

SometimesIwonder said:

Me too, I think she's a star. I don't get all the negativity towards her. However, I've just been freaked out by one of her fb photos. Somebody tell me they see what I see! It's the photo where she's standing at the window, looking trapped with the light behind her. Anyhow, if u look carefully to the bottom, you can see Prince's face taking the photo! Does it look like he's letting his hair grow natural? But, just above his face to the left, I can make out what looks like the face of Christ to me, kinda in negative form. No joke, can anybody else see this? Or shall I call first for the men in white jackets?!

can u post the link or photo here please?

only speaking for myself but all i needed to see was that Paisley logo on the back and i bought many of protege's without hearing a single song

I believe most of the hardcore fanbase acted in a similar fashion. Casual fans that I know didn't even know Carmen Electra had a CD before doing Playboy.

I think we also forget that Prince didn't even get Chaka or Larry's NPG albums distribution deals but made sure New Power Soul got one, and Chaka's album's was better than that shite IMO. I don't think he means harms, but at a certain level we all have to realize that he looks out for himself and kinda expects others to do the same, because he lends his hand only so much.

Do U even know how hard it is to get an old school artist a distribution deal? Prince is in a unique category 2 b able 2 get one 4 himself...He financed both of their albums. Now he has to get them distribution deals also. Please give him a break. Its even harder now 4 him to get one 4 himself..

Ehhh.. dude... I'm not blaming him for it. I'm just putting what he does with the "proteges" in context. If he doesn't go all out for people he loves, he only gonna do so much for his flavors of the month. We all realize its just one man who doesn't have proper management on his bankroll to do what a major label does. Thats not what I was implying. Which is why I said he can only do but so much. What he did for Bria was great because he put into way more peoples CD players her music than would have ever bought it in a store.

by all means i'm all 4 him owning his masters and publishing but that comes at a price too. no one but prince can be 4 blame 4 his distribuition deals and not following through with doing his share of marketing 4 the lables and distributors on the projects.

Which one is this? All I see posing her in that semi erotics, if Prince is really doing those pictures, then I'm sure she'll post one in the nude too to advance her musical talents, which we may have not noticed as yet unlike him.

[Edited 3/28/12 4:47am]

she may have a better chance at some respect cause she at least writes her material

SometimesIwonder said:

L4OATheOriginal & OzlemUcucu, I'm still not 100% on posting pics but you'll see the photo on Andy's FB. Not too sure how clear it is on a pc but you can zoom in real close with an iPhone or iPad. MJMia, I see what I see. Sorry to have riled you.

You didn't rile me. I just think your comments are as transparent as all of Prince and Andy's PR tricks. It seems to me that one of your jobs is to try to keep fans interested in Andy. It's exagerated to stare at a photo of her until you think you see Prince and a negative face of Christ.

i haven't heard her voice yet, but i think prince has a girlfriend, whoever it is she must be really tolerant of the fact that he lives and breathes music, basically performing and working all the time. I actually enjoyed Brias talents, looks, and music.

I just noticed Andy Allo played in an episode or two of The Game, Season 4! She plays T.T.'s girlfriend
