Since Alex Hahn decides on whether you can weather Prince, ILL decide you can deliver
all your Princely possessions to charity.

Too funny the reasons you don't like P anymore ...

And yet you list 50cent as one of your favorite artists.

Now I know why I didn't take this person's comments seriously.

50 cent WTF

BWAHAHAHA!!! Now that is freaking hilarious!!!!

Go on wit' your bad self, tane1976! You keep lovin' that bad gangsta fool who LIED about how many times he was shot and who REALLY is in the closet! (well, if you don't count the numerous reports of him liking the boys best...)

BWAHAHAHA!!!

I'm not sure why you have to be "over" Prince. No one say you have to like him as a person or prefer his post-1994 out put. But, why not just keep him at arms length while you concentrate your musical passion somwhere else. He may put out some music you like, whether it be just a song or a whole album. Why give up completely? It doesn't have to be an either or proposition.

I don't like him as much musically or personally as I once did, but I still want to know what he's doing and still hope for music that really wows me.

Well, all that would make too much sense. He admires a thug who puts out complicated compositions and meaningful music, not someone who has done such horrible things like Prince.

Number 3 straight cracked me the fuck up.

Prince is one of the least gay dudes I ever seen in my life. Marrying bimbo's to prove he ain't gay, that what you trying to say? Man, you got me rolling on the floor straight laughing my fucking ass off.

Mayte never came across a bimbo to me, and bimbo is the last word in the world I would use to describe Manuela - she is a highly intelligent woman. You have got to be kidding me, man. You need to look of the definition of the term "bimbo" if that's what you think Mani is.

My thoughts exactly!!!!

Why o Why spend time giving us your reasons on why u are "over" little ole princey. Unless it's ur reverse psychology, and deep down u want us to convert u back, but alas i personally couldn't give a hoot hoot.

Now remember to close the door on the way out, your causing a draft!!

Good luck in your search for a musician that will only play the music u approve of, only have views u agree with and has relationships with others in a manner which u deem appropriate.

In fact, i am renaming u "The Borg" .....resistance is futile, you will be assimilated

After reading this it reminds me of the old NPGMC forums .....dont speak ill of Prince or all hell breaks loose .....

Etorres said:

I know what you mean, but I never really understood why people have to create a thread and make a big dramatic statement of them becoming an ex-fan. What are we supposed to say or do? Congratulations or yeah we hate him too??? As if they need some sort of comforting.....I mean.....who gives a fuck??? I mean, I happy he/she is in a better place now, but...um....so what now? I mean...who cares?

No, Opinions welcome,gotta take the rough with the smooth but i'm curious why someone would inform a prince forum why they are "over" his work....Ok be over it, not a problem, but do we really need a thread on it??

I just read Alex Hahns book again, and have decided am no longer crazy about Prince, now just I mildly like his music.
Why?

1. He hasn't had any real hits since 1994

tane1976 said:

***** Its better late than never.... Me too... I've lost enthusiam in Prince. He aint able 2 give me NOTHING at the moment.
As JW Prince shouldnt treat ppl like shit but he always believes 2 b God in person....

Hasta la vista,baby!

sexxydancer said:

really .....adios...

this thread is too funny

Jacked-up thread

tane1976 said:

Ok, so WTF you still doing here?

I like his music. Don't agree with most of his views, but thats ok.

hmmm i knew this was gonna happen

no you're not.

tane1976 said:

you are the weekest link, goodbye!

Well, if that's how you really feel...






















....can you send me your Prince vinyl and cds? (I'll chip in for shipping.)

laurarichardson said:

I agree with your statement.

Etorres said:

I know this is not directed toward me. Look at my posts... I don't drink the purple koolaid. I would have been so quickly, that I didn't even bother joining that club until I thought he was going to bring Tamar's tour to Detroit.

I am just saying... if you don't like something.... move on... don't waste web space putting yourself in the center of attention and stamp your feet and whine that you are through with Prince. Just be through already!

all Prince is good Prince in my mind (compared to some of the junk on the charts t'day). even tho I agree with you that some of those things he's done are too much, i know my chances of meeting him are pretty slim, so it's not my place to judge him too critically outside of being a musician. and he's still a badass musician.

tane1976 said:

I'm not going 2 lynch u, but I don't seem 2 understand ur reasoning 4 not being a fan anymore.

1. If u ask me, Prince had a long run of hits....more than ur average musician. Starting in 1979 to 1994 (the mainstream years). That alone is more than most musicians/artists/singers accomplish in a lifetime. It's like someone saying that they aren't a Stones fany or a Whitney Houston fan because they haven't had a hit in years. Come on, people like the STones, Led Zepplin, The Doors, etc. are people who have had LONG careers and people still love them today. Many bands like this haven't had a "hit" in 20 years. Give me a break. That sounds more like a "cop-out" 2 me.

2. To me, Prince doesn't preach religion. I've heard him say things that he "believes" or that are "truth", but never have I heard him say that he is preaching religion. Many people say TRC is a Jehova Witness sermon, but I don't c it that way. Since his career took off, Prince has always spoken of God and spirituality in his music (Let's Go Crazy is the ultimate). From what I have learned over my 35 years of life, when people are confronted with something that they fear or not familiar with, then they start 2 rebel. 2 each his own on this.

3. No one knows about his private life. We can only speculate. His marriages are not our business. Usually when marriages fail, both parties are 2 blame. As 4 the homo comment, I don't know why u would call a man that had a stage setup like a woman's vagina (The Gold Experience stage inside of the cd cover) a homo. Besides, he is NEVER photographed with another man unless it is in a working environment. Give it up!

4. Prince's music has ALWAYS been self indulgent. Why should he please anyone else but himself?

5. How has he lost touch with people of today? Everytime he speaks, he tries 2 educate people on his view of the way the world is heading. He tries 2 help...not hinder. If u listened closely 2 the lyrics of his music (especially after 1994), his lyrics are about commitment and sensuality NOT just SEX. (R. Kelly & Akon's lyrics are strictly about sex).

6. As for his associates, I don't know how he treats them, but 4 fans, he seems 2 try (at times) 2 treat us with respect. Sure, some people have gotten hurt (Crystal Ball fiasco), ALL of us have lost our licenses, etc, but I'm sure a lot of that was due 2 the people that he hired and not him (directly). Come on, do u really think Prince can run everything himself?

I'm sure that P will not be affected by ur decision. There have been others that claim 2 not b fans anymore, but when a new project drops, they are the 1st ones 2 buy it and run 2 the shows.
