Time to stop hating on 3EG

If you would rather see the NPG in any variation/configuration, then I dont get you.. These girls are fresh and fun...

And for those who say the Sonny T, Mike Bland config, I'll say this..I like them however, I've heard the Ride by 3EG 2x now and it kills what the boys did.

But you will. Because Prince is not going to get up on stage there and play a rock heavy show backed by three white girls.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

I agree..it looked cluttered and smothered also tacky. I could see if they were in the back or something but anyway, 3rdeyegirl is a great band. The songs are awesome and they kick butt. Nevermind the haters. Im also angry when shelby is shouting over all the songs. Sometimes I want to pick up one of those amps and just hurl it over her head.

3EG are great. They're brilliant live, much rather see them than the current NPG, and from the studio versions we've heard, (whether or not officially released yet), Funknroll and Wow are really great, as is Plectrumelectrum, assuming the Madison Dube video features the studio track. However Fixurlifeup is awful and Pretzelbodylogic and Screwdriver are so-so. One good thing about 3EG in the studio is the production sounds really good! No lasers!

Prince will be bringing the horns & thankfully Liv to Essence. It will be a much bigger stage than arsenio and others, so he can bring em all!!!!

Prince did an interview with a woman at Record World. They talked about whatever, then he asked her: "Does your pubic hair go up to your navel?" At that moment, we thought maybe we shouldn't encourage him to do interviews.

i think you are too late with this subject as so many really respect what 3EG have done in such a short time. they are all young & just getting started in their careers & are working for possibly the hardest task master in the business...yet they really are getting better all the time. The live shows since Feb 14 onwards have drawn huge compliments from fans & media alike.

Should this really be in the associated artist and people? This is Prince's current band.

PUT the ALBUM out... then 3EG can continue or go to bed... whatever.. doesn't matter.. I think we're just WAITING to bite on ANY kind of album seeing there hasn't been an ALBUM released since 20ten and who took that seriously...

Is 3EG still trying to work dub-step synths into the hits? That's my biggest beef against them. Some things just should not be substitued. Oberheims are as important to classic Prince as bass guitar is.

i <3 the 3EG band rt now....did anyone notice the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame Nirvana induction had 4 different women fronting for Kurt Cobain? I think Prince's investment in female musicians (not proteges) is having a wave effect that can only be a good thing smile

I think as a group they're good for the European fans when they're across the pond, but for some reason I don't see them getting as embraced on the same level with an American audience. American audiences are more demanding and tougher to please.

i love prince for taking three talented ladies who didn't even know each other, bringing them together and giving them the chance to rock out with him. the entire project looks like a lot of fun, and i love the results. i really respect prince for offering the chance at success to other people. sending the elevator back down for other people. he's so cool
