Does it bother you that, all of a sudden, $$$ seems to matter most to Prince?

Whatchathank?

I mean...he could have had boatloads of money a long time ago, but kept
his integrity for his artform.

Now, shit, he's playing birthday parties for a cool million.

Brotha has changed, dont you think?

And, is this a bad thing? If anyone does, Prince deserves what he gets.
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

Yeah, but even that he kind of kept artsy/fartsy...I mean, could you imagine if KISS were involved in that project???? There were no partyman dolls (when you know damn well there could have been)

No doubt...the man has earned everything that comes his way.

It's just that lately, he's done some things that I thought I would
never see from him...ie Pricey Vegas shows, Hiring out for Birthday Parties

The starving artist mentality is highly overrated.

Can someone post that quote of Prince talking about the days of being able to get over on black musician with a bucket of chicken and a Cadillac being over?

I understand the man has to get paid, but (I think) the higher road for him
to take would be RELEASING his CD material...sell the concert DVD's....stuff like that.
This latest act of rubbing elbows with the high-and-mighty...Pricey, Pricey, Pricey stuff goes against his core audience.
