I need this clarified. Do any of you guys know if it is true he sang "Do Me, Baby" at the private memorial M2 and M1 put on in LA?

--I remember someone saying he did. I would love for fans to go to his show and throw a bannna at his head😀 however, I know Orince fans are too cool to waste money and time seeing this clown. What kind of marriage does he have with his wife? I feel sorry for Orince to have been married to this gold digging women who is still trying to get money off Prince and will not let him rest in peace. Pathetic.

It seems to me that Mani and Eric are a match made in hell because they are both opportunists who married and used people that were way more famous then they could ever be and they made fools of them in their own ways. I mean Halle is crazy, however, he did try to have their prenup thrown out and tried to get her to pay support for HIS daughter and she didn't deserve the cheating he did on her either. That man stays being a bitch even today, singing his wife's ex's songs. Like what kind of psycho does that?lol Out of all the R&B singers he could want to try to emulate he just happens to pick Prince. He's a mess! I feel sorry for his tourmate Marsha Ambrosius. She's actually really talented and I like her music.

It's very All About Eve. I wonder if Prince ever realized that he'd been chumped? I mean, I think he really did love her and trust her but I wonder if he ever realized that he'd been had by a stalker? sad Sad for Prince sad


Superfan1984, no disrespect toward you but Prince was NEVER "had" by anyone shake People need to remember that behind the scenes happenings may not be obvious to us. But do not think he was a "chump" because he allowed certain things to play out because it worked FOR him and his plans. We are not talking about your average person here wink

I don't know. You can't tell me the band doesn't know of Eric Benet's history with Mani. That's what I tried telling them on the other thread about this.

I think the blame should be on the band, they are the ones who invited him along. So WTF is the matter with The Revolution?

Invited him along for what? Eric is using this footage to promote his own tour with Marsha Ambrosious.

BrownMark tweeted awhile back, and invited Eric Benet to take the stage with The Revolution.

Yeah when this was being discussed on the other thread, people were holding up for BrownMark, saying that he probably didn't know the past history of Benet and Prince. I called BS then and BS now. There is no way in H. that The Revolution couldn't know that Benet was married to Prince's ex wife, who cheated on him with Benet.

I read that here on the org, but I never saw the actual tweet from BrownMark, so I never repeated it. It always struck me as a very bizarre twist...and an indication that the Revolution is desperate for vocalists on their Prince tour. Do you happen to have a direct link to the tweet on Twitter, PennyPurple?

Yeah......how could he possibly not have known any of this? Wouldn't attend even if they were gonna be in my area. Eric Benet is a no-go and it's tacky as hell for him to be any part of this.



nod


I'm not convinced that he didn't know either because I'm sure somebody would have said something to him about it.

Just like they should have known better than to have him sing at the Sister Wife Memorial.

My guess is that tact and etiquette is what they have no clue about. disbelief

Having $$ or talent doesn't translate to having class.

Have you listened to his current recording? He serious as a heart attack.

At first I thought it was just the one song that was posted here but when I heard more songs I realized that he's pretty pathetic and desperate. eek

He's a good singer who doesn't need to do this. What is driving his mania?

I'll try. My computer has a virus and I'm on hubby's computer and it won't let me copy and paste. Sigh.

Ex-wife, ex-band, songs...

I guess EB just has a fetish for all P's sloppy seconds.

It's a good thing EB's too big to fit into P's clothes and shoes or he'd probably do a photoshoot in them, too. Sheesh

I can hardly bare watching him..He is such a COPY CAT Second class CLONE it turns my stomach.....

the Worst part is that People who are NOT Familiar with Prince dont realise that Eric has modelled everything from him, and thus think that Eric has serious Chops...

Scrolling through his youtube comments under His last single it becomes apparent that most People dont know Princes Music enough to even Get the connection...and it sucks

I know I'm not the only one here who was joyful at the thought of seeing the Revolution again. Then there was talk that Brownmark had invited EB to perform and, obviously sing Prince songs. I was deeply disturbed at the thought, actually incredulous Why would anyone think inviting EB, who is widely believed to have been banging Prince's wife behind his back, would honor Prince or comfort his fans? Come on, Revolution, we need clarification. What's it gonna be? Performances to honor Prince or the most passive-aggressive, hateful tour in history?

Does anybody know if lawyers can sue anyone using Prince's songs for lucrative purposes?

I remember Prince saying on the Lopez Tonight that there was a "compulsory law" that allows anyone to take any song....but not sure where this stands.

Was Eric Benet ever an associate of Prince?
