PrintableByron said: And for the record, who here really CARES one way or another??..lol...Seriously. Does ANYONE on this thread or on this site give a rat's ass if Prince plays the standard promotional games or declares himself an "indie maverick" and promotes himself through his website only??...Does anyone actually become emotionally effected by these decisions?
"But Prince said..."...yeah, yeah, blah blah blah...I don't know about anyone else, but when Prince said that record labels were like plantations and he wanted to emancipate himself from being a 'slave', I said "Yeah, ok, I guess I see your point there, and um...oh, hell, just drop a new CD soon"...When Prince signed onto using a record company to promote Rave, I said "Yeah, ok, but weren't you against...oh, hell, just drop a new CD soon"...When Prince changed his name to a symbol I said "Yeah, ok, I guess your reasons have some valid...oh, hell, just drop a new CD soon"...when he went back to using Prince as his name, I said "Yeah, ok, I guess changing back would be...oh, hell, just drop a new CD soon"...lol 
Just drop a new CD, I don't really get myself worked up about his proclamations from one year to the next...hell, from one month to the next...my life does not revolve around whether or not Prince is being consistent between his words and his actions, and my life is definitely not made happier by knowing he is, nor sadder by believing he's not. However, a new CD from the man does indeed make my life happier, even if just momentarily...(or in the case of the better CDs, made happier for years, even decades)... Seriously...outside of those who enjoy finding reasons to find fault with Prince, does anyone, anywhere, really care about any of this??... AMEN HELL NO I DON'T CARE!!!!!I'M WITH U JUST DROP A NEW CD AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AND THROW A WORLD TOUR IN THERE SOMEWHERE AND MAKE SURE YOU COME TO A PLACE I CAN SEE HIM DIRTYMIND

For the record, I never said he "sold out" like so many here have. I said he "jumped a shark" and that I was disappointed that he appeared on such a shitty brain-dead show.
I still am. | |

BULLS**T!!!!! If he got on American Idol & performed "Let's Go Crazy" or "Purple Rain", then I could see your point. BUT: he performed his NEW MATERIAL!!!!! Think "promotion tool", people!!!!! He performed "Lolita", not "1999"!!!!! The producers probably wanted him to do some bulls**t like that, but Prince being Prince chose to perform NEW MATERIAL. That's PIMPIN'!!!
And WHEN are y'all gonna stop comparin' him to MJ????? Maybe MJ SHOULD sell out & do the Vegas route, but Toni Braxton beat him to it!!!! MJ SHOULD go somewhere & play his hits instead of playing with little boys!!!!! THAT'S WHAT TIME IT IS!!!!! | |

My friend who isn't even a fan just e-mailed me and said this:
"Prince was on American Idol last night, did you see? Very weird - totally wouldn't expect him to be there. But I guess he probably knew how many people would be watching!" "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

Honestly, (and I don't say this lightly) I think most of you people are full of shit. You complain regardless of any move that Prince makes. | |
