Maybe Prince is pulling a Willy Wonka: The 1st honest & pure-hearted fam to send in all his Everlasting Gobstoppers (aka your unauthorized recordings), gets the keys to the chocolate factory (aka Paisley Park).

This is fake, I would like to see the header of this e-mail.
somebody must have hacked it's way to the members list, and sent an e-mail out under the name of the NPGMC...

It can be done so easially, y'all wanna mail from Bill Gates at Microsoft dot com??

On the other hand... if this is real... No Prince wouldn't do that! No Way, Not Prince!

That would be so f@cking nasty... YUK!


It's real. The text is on the NPGMC site.

Go to the chat now and there is a clarification of this story.

i don't post here no more but this thing is the occasion to stop a misinterpretation.

A moderator told me 1 CD is enough it is just to show signs of efforts because those singles were released illegally even after a first request from Prince's staff that was unheard of.

Now the deal is over with Warner some are still released!!!

Also this mail was a test to check the reaction of the fans. NPGMC got many requests asking for CDs that don't excist, release the vaault etc... and they reversed the requests to check our own reaction which i think is pretty clever because NPGMC operators are not Prince and hey cannot take any decision to release the vault etc...



Anybody understands now?


I understand that if you believe this jive, you're pretty much a numbskull.



Looks at what you buy and collect in your prince list and you'll have the answer!! Who's the numbskull...

The NPGMC forums have been closed.

I went over to the chatroom and PP7 said something about the site "dismantled room by room." Shortly afterwards, the chat just stopped... and now I can't access NPGMC's site at all (using IE6 or Mozilla Firebird).

Man I wish he would get back to making music, instead of all these nutty e-mails. I mean a stretch would be to ask for photo copies of the cover and disk. This is crazy.

Prince is such a pathetic cry-baby. The latest email or message is even MORE perplexing, since that Sign O The Times dvd boot isn't mentioned on the original list, and Warner didn't release it anyway. It was a BOOTLEG.

I think Prince and Mani got into a fight over who used the last of the purple eyeshadow.
No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

Anyone who sends their boots to them should be kicked in the teeth. Prince is a fucking asshole.

Here's an idea people, and I'm dead serious. Send Prince back your copies of TRC, Xpectation, N.E.W.S., and every other piece of shit album he's released. How's that for a message?


i couldn't agree more.

Maybe he's filing a lawsuit against WB.
He needs proof they distributed some of his material unlawfully.


lawsuit for what ?

Prince got PAID for these CD's, no lawyer would touch a case where someone got paid under contract.


they might have a WB logo, but they were UNOFFICIALLY released. in this case, official means 'under contract', so unnofficial essentially means 'prince gets no money'.

hey, if you don't want to help...don't. no need to mouth off so much. Technically they could send police round every members house to pick up ur boots - this seems like a nice friendly request by comparison.


you dick.

it's not illegal to own bootlegs. jesus - why would it be...?

it's illegal to sell, make, play in public and distribute, but not to own.

Just read this at NPGMC. I don't know why they couldn't have told us this from the start.

Perhaps this notice will clear up any confusion brought on by the CAUSE emale u received recently. Not long ago, an UNauthorized version of the concert film SIGN O THE TIMES surfaced online. Supposedly originating in Brazil and distributed by WEA International- this DVD is not something that was approved by Prince or any of his affiliates. Enuff is enuff...

We all know that Prince is one of the most bootlegged artists of his generation and while much of this activity is tolerated, it crosses the line when Prince's 4mer record company who is entrusted 2 steward his catalogue gets in the mix.

The CAUSE emale is a simple request 2 show a Federal Court the actual truth of this age-old riff between ARTIST and LABEL.

Even if u were kind enuff 2 send us just ONE cd that is shown on the list u were mailed, it will serve as ample notice that we r tired of this endless MISrepresentation of this man's life-long work. He deserves better.

Let Prince steward his OWN catalogue, then the "coupled", poor-quality, unmastered versions of his classics would cease. Imagine in 2004, a brand-new, prisitine, RE-mastered version of PURPLE RAIN released on high definition DVD with xtras, outtakes and liner notes from the Artist himself arriving at ur door. That alone is worth the effort of helping us with the CAUSE.
