I guess just beinga Prince fan for a long time and reading things, hearing stories about him and most importantly just experiencing his work gave way to what his personaltiy seems like.
I think he told Matt Lauer last year that "People who know my work know me" and after reading Possessed that just comfirmed to me that my perception of him was not that far off. But you know what, everybody has a dark side and to me Prince's positive qualities far outweigh his bad side. I think he is good person actually deep down...just terribly insecure and sensitive. Which I think is the reason his ego gets out of control at times. He has alot of other beautiful qualities too that Possessed doesn't touch on that much.  Krystal, I have to agree with your comments. Pretty much, all that shit that was put in the book was common knowledge for me. Because I've pretty much heard all the crap before from my sources and its nothing new. And regarding your comment about the darkside, you were right on. Shit, this is when P write most of his best stuff when he is in a dark eccentric, horny mood. Once he gets back to that, we can expect some interesting stuff from our boy. | |

sosgemini said: DiamondGirl said: DP also was more neutral in saying the pros and cons of people's opinions on Prince. She mentioned the flaws of those who idolize him and those who dislike with extreme prejudice. She was more objective in her stance if you will. You seem to be fixated (as you usually are when debating) on the portion where you feel it appears she is adressing you. And there is nothing wrong with her adressing you in certain aspects since it seems you do not realize that you put out there that you dislike the man immensely. And as was previously mentioned by Handclapsandfingasnaps, you DO come-a-runnin to these types of threads with almost a religious zeal to discredit Prince at all accounts. It is very obvious. And the odd thing is that you sometimes use the "we are free to debate" argument whenever you are semi-called on it or when a pro Prince comment is countered with a con.  Just because i am more involved and posting more on a couple threads (uhhh because its the weekend and i have more time to post) does not mean that i have an agenda to kill prince..  Oh my gah stop with the hypoerbole accusations . And it isn't just this weekend. Your whole vibe always has been anti-Prince (which is your right, but stop whining when someone else recognizes that in you). One I love a certain song post doesn't mean anything either, good grief. | |

No, you whine whenever you come across adversity to your opinion (ironic eh?) or when someone points out something about you as you do to us all (more irony lol). | |

see the cartoon guy above... No. Its wrong to do those things only when YOU feel slighted or persecuted (which you do). It is funny how you have this wanton vibe of fighting for respect for all yet use pics and rude emoticons/comments on others who don't agree with you or otherwise. What a shining example you are. see emoticon below  | |

What a shining example you are. see emoticon below yes, what a shining example i am....ive been championing this way before i posted in this thread..have you not looked at the timestamp of the Naysayer thread i created? i can defend myself just fine..im just tired of seeing people bully other people when it comes to personal opinions.... and you know what? ive recieved numerous orgnotes, emails and orgpops thanking me for taking on what is percieved as the "clique" within this forum.....so, i walk away feeling appreciated... but hey, you keep thinking that i want to kill prince, that i feel slighted and that im all "drama"tized over this thread..... its the furthest from reality though..and im gonna keep on calling people out when they try to throw down their opinion like its fact.... funny that you had more to say about me then you did the actual topic of this thread...dansa does that too...doesnt want any negative talk about prince....bitches when people say something negative..but then doesnt contribute to positive discussions.. i just dont get it..(ps, thats just a sidebar note..not a part of the previous discussion..).. toddles!!

Oh my god. No you just did not use the "I have many orgnotes from people that state..." technique. And to disparage another moderator as part of your own defense
And the only reason any of this was brought forth was because of you once again, pushing the "hey hey..I dont like Prince so anything counterpointing any dislike is personal! btw I suggest you check the ___ thread to show..." whatever gets you through the night

Oi! Children! Break it up! I havent bothered to read the arguement, but you're setting a bad example to us lil ones! Now go write on the Org Blackboard "I must not argue with other people on the net" 100 times! Go!
P.S. The one that finishes an arguement is usually right

Handclapsfingasnapz said: sosgemini said: nobody is saying its a crime....why do you feel some are saying its a crime.. like dorothyparker mentioned, some people feel like prince is this magical musical mega-muthafucka who can do no wrong, musically or personally. we're setting the record straight for those who don't get it.

Krystal666 said: Tiffypoo2004 said: Agreed totally i have read both "Possessed" and "DMSR". and even through it portrayed P as a jerk it still hasnt and wont change my admiration for him as an artist. i mean who cares if he fucked 500 million women at once as long as he keeps making wonderful music for his fans Prince is alright with me. and yes Krystal p i think is a very good person deep down inside inspite of faults.
[Edited 7/9/05 16:00pm]  Is having sex with 500 or even 1000 women in your lifetime as bad as murdering someone? I don't think so. If Prince did have sex with half the country who cares? That doesn't make him a bad person. That is one thing I always respected about him...he is always tries to be the best person he can be...so what if he has an over active libido? There are worse things...and it sure contributed to his music for the better! yeah i mean its not like p was a murderer or a rapist he was just a horny ass man who liked to fuck a lot.lol | |

I havnt read the book, or this thread, but I do beleive P may have stole a few things here and there, namely " Do Me Baby" from Andre, but "it all comes out in the wash, in time" meaning the true talent shines through | |
