Oh boy neutral . I'm nervous about this performance. I feel the same way I did when he did the Grammys in 2004. This is the show where Prince HAS TO BRING IT. PERIOD. I'm looking at the pre-show right now and I'm thinking this is a very different crowd than the Grammys. I don't know. I hope he kills them and all of us with this. And I hope Tamar has a small part to play with the performance but I'm just going to watch and hope for the best.





This definitely ain't Prince's crowd but if anybody can pull this off he can.

I think he will too.

When I first heard about P performing on BET, I had reservations about it. I have to say this, but I don't think a 48 year old pop star from th 80's that wears heels, relaxed hair and make-up will fair well with the BET crowd. I could be wrong and I actually hoep I'm wrong.

I remember how dry the crowd was when Gladys performed last year after being awarded the lifetime achievement award. The crowd was also dry as hell back in 2004 when the Isley Bros performed.

Prince always! always! always! receives an enthusiastic welcome and tonight will be no different. With all do respect to Gladys (my mom loved midnight train to georgia) and the Isley bothers, their not Prince.

Never dought the power of Mr. Nelson.

Trust me... U have NOTHING 2 worry about. The audience will go absolutely CRAZY when Prince steps out on that stage. There R plenty of grown folks there. As 4 the younger generations... there is simply no hope. Current Rap & R&B is a disgrace 2 all those who came before, broke the walls down, and built the foundation... Only 2 see it all torn down by these ignorant, non-singin', non-rappin', plasticized, souless fast food machines that R causing cancer of the heart. Oh shit. Did I go off 2 much?

Peace.

no you didn't. you spoke the truth


The Funk can speak 4 itself, but sometimes it needs us 2 call out the antiFUNK, which is what is going on now. I mean, most Rap sounds like military drills these days... no funk whatsoever. Maybe it'll all come around soon... maybe we should help it 2. I'm sittin' on a ton of tracks I haven't released. I should be doing my part.

Easy,

Giovanni.

especially since BET hasn't really done right by him a a long time, even with them playing his videos every now and then.

Prince...

PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE break out the Bass, the synth, or the guitar (or all three, like the NAACP show)... Folks don't need 2 keep on thinking of U as just a singer... Show those skills... the youth need 2 see it and recognize.

Doing "Love", and switching from synth to guitar would do the trick... and funk the daylights outta the "bounce" breakdown. Come out on rollerskates (kidding)...

I like Tamar and I didn't have a problem with her performing on GMA, but I hope he doesn't trot her out there tonight to do a solo. Tonight is not the night for that...IMO
