SMART PURPLE MOVES

THE SALES / AND SMART PURPLE MOVES !

I think Prince made again a fine twist by playing chess with the music industry and the billboard sales figures.
Even if you like it or not.
Even if you like the 'Musicology' album or not. (personally i think it's a mediocre album, but i like the ballads. )

Few facts are for sure and without any doubt ;

1. The guy is 46 years old, plays live unlike anybody else.
2. The musicology tour is dispite the lack of explicit Prince language, a very good live show and interesting circus. (critics are praising him over and over again!)
3. He is a Jehova witness, if you like it or not (i don't like it, but it's his life choice. Personally i don't give a shit even if he was with the Featherless Chicken Witnesses).
4... He's back on the block! The world knows it, the press writes about it, everywhere!
.... He gets millions of people to come and see him (wait for the European leg of his upcomming world tour).
.... He makes smart moves (again), buy fucking up counting how many albums he has sold.
.... It's a bit like a Jehova thing. they stick it in your throat, once you're with 'm, if you like it or not! Same goes for the Musicology album. You go to see the man, and you dance to his believes; and get funked up with his latest when buying a ticket! Sales figures go up, Prince happy again.

But....; his official website remains crap to loyal fans (compared to other great acts of today)! (Thank god there's .ORG and housequake .com and many others.)

Let's hope (!!!) that these new STARDOM times (that's what he really wants and needs) will provide him again with the songcraftmanship which he is so unique with.. I hope he openes up a bit more to other people (musicians), or maybe even to people from his own past, the way he is doing right now, bit by bit, like with Wendy, Sheila E (My God she's talented!!!).
And is it true? did i noticed Eric leeds around again? Great!

I remixed the Musicology album to my own likenings, and i tell you, it's a hella more funky!!!

Now all you sigh mutherfuckers up against the wall, say what you want, Prince is one hell of an artist that makes 'moves'. We miight start to compare him with David Bowie for all these strange but somehow interesting moves.

All hail to Prince and The Revolution!
