Even if all that stuff were true, this ain't fucking about her. It would be more about her if she were doing original work. But if one choses to do Prince covers, it is still about Prince and his legacy. She assumes that P being up in heaven means he wouldn't care about his legacy. How the fvck would she or anyone else know what P cares or doesn't care about... All we can go by is what is good for legacy...and in terms of his legacy, this choice looks pretty ridiculous. Impersonators ruined Elvis Presley's image for a really long time by making him look like a lounge show caricature..Is that what they want for Prince? Impersonaters are fine for comedy or for small markets like Vegas, but recorded music with an impersonator looks like a commerical attempt to replace the original (like a bunch of Eve Ardens) I also sincerly dislike the preachiness of his post. I wonder if she was praying for P when he was lying alone fixating on popping a pill at 2 am on April 21, 2016. For all means, defend your decision, Marva, and speak out against truely hateful speech but don't think you or anyone else in prince's purple army or family are above approach just because you were lucky enough to be in Prince's circle. There are lots of talented people out there.

I am also thankful to have been a close friend, confidant, singer, sometimes cook, praise and worship mate in Jesus name, as well as a voice of reason to Prince Rogers Nelson.

Despite any attacks, disagreements & even acts of hatred against him, he continued on as the Soldier King he was birthed to be. What he despised most was the mob -like mentality attacks that were Never productive. Only venomous. Such a testament to his strength and determination.. Many of u that participated in such attacks are probably the 1st to testify the Eternal Love for him. If U Truly knew his Spiritual purpose, U would not be launching attacks against his blood family who have Every right , moreso than Anyone else active in continuing or "capitalizing" from the Successful Prince legacy. Tell me...Who IS the Judge here? WHO is even the Jury? Prince resides in the Spirit world. A realm that inhabit God's creatures. For those that are upset with our male lead who has had success as a Prince music performer should realize that Prince also associated himself with this performer while here on Planet Earth. So what makes U feel it ok to speak in a derogatory manner to or about him? Do U think Prince would approve of your actions against him and his youngest blood brother that he told to carry on with his legacy and fight the good fight in his name? Prince told me many times that he loved Me for my honesty, strength, fearlessness, passionate love for all mankind. He asked me more than once to represent him the artist and Paisley Park. The latter was stated in front of New Power Generation members in a round table meeting at Paisley. Though flattering I declined the positions as I did any romantic involvement with my dear friend. In time his words to me were " I know that U Truly love me." I was Always compelled to show Prince Rogers Nelson Agape Love. I will continue to do so. All that truly have love in their hearts for 1 another will show it with brotherly and sisterly love. Remember.. God lives inside of us all. We have a piece of His DNA, so U must love Self in order to Love anyone else. Peace & Blessings. MK 💜💜💜 & The New Power Soul!!!!

I know who she is. I saw her perform with P on Jay Leno. That doesn't mean she can post stupid insulting peachy bullshit like that. I bet she was swearing a blue streak under her breath while she was wrting that B.S. I usually give associates a great deal of leeway but I am so tired of the associates who act self important like she just did. I think many of his associates to some degree or another have done something of that nature. but most of them have also balanced their self interest with consideration and respect for his legacy. She is not only self important in this post; she is manipulative and crass. This post is the worst I have seen in terms of manipulative and self important posts. "He tried to hit on me and briefly employed me so I can shit all over his legacy if I want to". I personally would like to live in a world in the next 20 years in which Prince's music is respected and not a joke, sabotaged by employees who are too clueless to realize when they doing more harm than good to the man's legacy. Maybe I am just mad because I liked Omarr and I thought she was pretty cool at one point and a band fronted by an impersonater getting a record contract offends me as a fan.
Like I said, some things said about their lead singer were below the belt and unncessary. And if she had defended him based on that notion than I would not be irritated.. I wonder if she realizes how ridiculous a post like hers is.

Tell the 'lead singer' to take the double socks out of his crotch, and the other dude to put his shoes on the right foot.
If they want to be a new group, they can get their own songs.
This is f'n BS.

the problem with a reputation is that it precedes you. Now any opportunist can claim he did this and people will assume it is true based just on a person's word. Sinatra's mobster reputation was exagerrated due to this kind of B.S. People have since disproved a handful of the more crazy Sinatra mafia stories thankfully.
CORRECTION--if she worked with him in 2006/2007 during the 3121 and London Gigs (early posts indicate this) , he was a single man at the time. Maybe she is talking about him hitting on her at that time. I do apologize to P up in heaven if that is what she is referring to, but I still think its BS she even mentioned it.

Some people will believe her because of his reputation, others wont. The fact is, shes raised the question in peoples minds. Now, unless she clarifies what she meant it will remain out there.

We got to cool our heels here. I just read that Marva performed with him during 3121 and the 07 London gigs. Its possible he could have hit on her then. And in a way, him hitting on a black woman closer to his age, wouldn't be a bad thing. That being said, she still was crass in bringing it up.

Its crass but she might be referring to her later gigs with Prince during 2006/2007. I just read about other times she worked with him. He was single man at that time. I am starting her remember her and her afros from that period.

Impersonators ruined Elvis Presley's image for a really long time by making him look like a lounge show caricature..Is that what they want for Prince? Impersonaters are fine for comedy or for small markets like Vegas, but recorded music with an impersonator looks like a commerical attempt to replace the original (like a bunch of Eve Ardens) I also sincerly dislike the preachiness of his post. I wonder if she was praying for P when he was lying alone fixating on popping a pill at 2 am on April 21, 2016.
For all means, defend your decision, Marva, and speak out against truely hateful speech but don't think you or anyone else in prince's purple army or family are above approach just because you were lucky enough to be in Prince's circle. There are lots of talented people out there.

And in a way, him hitting on a black woman closer to his age, wouldn't be a bad thing. That being said, she still was crass in bringing it up.

So Prince tried to date Marva and she declined. Hmmm.. Why did she feel the need to tell us this? Defend your tribute act but spare us the sexy time insinuatios And he was married to mayte during this time smh... ...
She first worked with him in 97/98 when he was married. The fact that shes left it vague with no timeline doesnt help her cause. Baby, you're a star.

It helps his cause though...LOL. the work with P in 1998 was shorter presumably than the work with P in 2006 and 2007...and he told her to grow her fro out during that time. She recently grew it out again for P supposedly...(her facebook, I stalked it...okay, I am shameless.)
Really I would love if her post was just a misunderstanding or her emotions getting the best of her. I am still pissed at the post, but the 2006/2007 stuff does change some of it.

Shes telling us to keep it classy and she posts about P trying to bed her. Erm..ok... . [Edited 9/24/17 15:07pm] [Edited 9/24/17 15:49pm]
Well we know from Mayte he was running around with M2 and others. So it is not a newsflash however, it seems like she is saying I was almost a side piece so I know best. |

At the end of the day including that part about P hitting on her and her turning him down was unnecessary and not the kind of thing you should tell about a person you proclaim to love. The " I turned him down" line just comes across as arrogant and cold from someone who was his friend. Baby, you're a star.
