vainandy said: I disagree. I see Prince performing with Beyonce as totally selling out to the young hip hop generation. I also see it as selling out to go along with the theme they had going that night, old school with new school. Prince has always been an individual and a rebel. I respected him much more when he went against EVERYONE else in 1985 and refused to be part of the "We Are The World" video. There's more to being a true artist than doing anything it takes to be successful. Prince has got enough money and hardcore fans to not have to worry about about going along with everyone else. That performance truly disappointed me, especially it being with the likes of someone like Beyonce. He hyped his upcoming tour as being a return to real musicians but yet he performs with the someone that is far from a real musician. If he were going to team up with someone from the show, it should have been George Clinton or Earth, Wind, and Fire. Of course, everyone else on the show was teamed with someone new school. No one new school is worthy enough to perform with ANY of these artists. sell out? what does one thing have to do with the other. do i think that Prince's grammy performance earned him new fans? well duuh. I agree Sav, he needed to open that younger door to the new fans. might not have been tight but it got the worlds attention for sure. | |

I guess it was notable enough to be newsworthy and one of the most memorable moments of the past year. Never seen so much demand for a Prince download in my life.! | |
