WTH is going on here? falloff Seriously, this is wrong in so many ways.

Especially this: "(PS...Did you see Madonna KICK ASS & rock out on that guitar at live earth! Take that Prince! She gonna catch up with you and jam with your ass!"

I mean, WTF? lol


BTW, if there ever in a billion years was the slightest chance that your theory had a grain of truth to it, why did Prince sign with Sony BMG in the first place and why does he allow Sony to release the album in any other country.

And Prince has never been ignorant towards Michael Jackson. Quite the opposite, actually.

MJ wish he could own 25% of Sony BMG. But it was a smart move back when he acquired his stake in SONY ATV.

I think it might be a joke post though lol
Cause it starts off with an apology/disclaimer if it offends, then uses language that obviously is meant to offend. At least, I found that funny. shrug

y'all are the ones that being offensive and ignorant here!
Im tired of all you ignorant prince fans on here!
No wonder Prince is the way he is.
Cause of the fans that follow him.
He problem is ashamed of half of you on here.
And furthermore I have not seen a post yet without foul language.
So dont go there!

If you saw my Prince photoshops or posts about the material I don't like you'd realize that I'm not a PrinceOphile even though I'm a fan of his music.



Oh, and Michael Jackson sucks ass.

I can safely say this is the dumbest post I have read. EVER. Even as a joke it is so flawed.

The biggest problem? Sony/BMG is releasing the album to the REST OF THE WORLD.

Seriously, the only white women prince cares about are those that are not MJ.
Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it.

Exactly!

And why would anyone put so much effort into a joke? I think the OP is dead serious.

This is just a case of a MJ stan doing what they do best.

Finally, I understand!!!

Prince gave away "Musicology" at concerts to piss MJ off.

Prince then released "3121" on Universal to piss MJ off. Too bad, MJ in the meantime had bought Universal, the US government, China and 90 % of the moon.

So he went back to Sony, pretended to release an album through them and then did the Mail on Sunday deal to piss MJ off.

You enlightened me!!!

P.S.: What if MJ owns 99.5 % of the Mail on Sunday??? eek

If you dont believe me call up Londell McMillan who helped MJ recently as his attorney in court. Former Prince Attorney office in NYC @ #1-212-399-8900.
Or better yet his Public Relations Rep Mgr Raymone Bain's office @ #1-202-337-5595 or
The Infamous Thomas Mesearu at #1-310-789-1177
or info@mesereauyu.com
It was Brian Oxman (nice guy shook his hand at Santa Maria Courthouse. Looks like Pres. Bill Clinton) the Jackson Family's long time Attourney that announced the sale of the 25% of his 50% ownership in the sony BMG & ATV Catalogue for a BILLION Dollars Last year paying off the $300 something Million debt because of all the shit ass lawsuits keep bring apon him to destroy him. He Announced it last year on Nancy Bitch DisGrace's show on I think MSNBC or one of those fascist news networks on cable.
So if you dont believe me call him up.His office is in California somewhere.
I dont have his phone # but you can also try utube I might check that out 2nnite in fact or order a copy of the show from Nancy Disgraces show online from the news network she is on. Go Keith Oberman!!!
Actually come to think of it. I recorded it. duh...
So if you want a video copy I will look for it in my pile of video tapes in my closet.

By the way I know my SHIT so dont F with me!

And also by the way...
When MJ bought the Sony ATV catalogue he offered to give Sly Stone his music back. Sly like Prince was someone he looked up to growing up in the Music Biz. Sly said he did not want it back. Not sure why he refused but another MJ fan told me it had something to do with his children and said he'd rather MJ keep it. Also he did give "Tuti Fruiti" back to Little Richard. It was in the Catalogue he bought.

If paul wanted his music so bad he should have out bid MJ or the super rich Austrailian guy that owned it before should have sold it back to Paul for the $30 Million that he offered a few years before. The original owner is really the one at fault. Paul offered $30 Million and the original owner sold it to MJ for only $7 Million dollars more.... Was it really worth waiting a few years later for another $7 Million dollars? When he could have had the good conscience of one of the Beatles owning the catalogue. And if yoko ono really cared she would have teamed up at Paul's request to buy it together. But she didn't and refused. She must have wanted MJ to have it too. hmmmmm
probably cause he is a man of peace and does God's work like
John Lennon was all about.
Power to the People!
Amen.

Erm, If Michael Jackson or anyone else sold 25% of a 50 % share, they would not have 25% left, they would have 37.5%.

I dont care to argue about whether or not MJ owns 25% or not. Frankly, if he does, good for him. Or if not, whatevs, he aint gonna go hungry(contrary to talk of bankruptcy, he's still better off than all of us).

What concerns me is suggesting that Prince has something against MJ..I dont think that's even entered Prince's head when making the deal. I don't even think Prince has much against MJ. At least in recent years, he hasn't said much negative things against him. I think Prince is in a more spiritual place right now, as is Madonna for that matter. I'd like to think that he views the both of them as musical peers. Remember when Mary J. Blige beat PRince in one category for the grammys(forgot the category)? Prince, who was sitting behind her, actually got up and patted her on the shoulders. The Prince of ten or twenty years ago would never have done that. So yea, I dont think Prince would have anything against MJ to the effect of convincing him to make a deal of that nature.

I'm a MJ fan but I know doggone well Mike don't own no 25% of SONY BMG. Last I heard, if it's correct, he owns 50% of SONY ATV. If that ain't true then that's what he owns 25% of, but he don't own anything from SONY BMG, I don't know how someone came to that conclusion.

um prince fans
I have a serious question to ask. And I dont want you to be affended by it though.
I apppologize up front if you find this offensive but I have to bring this up cause it is on my mind and conscience??!!

Did Prince not sell his latest cd in the UK "Planet Earth" in record stores and instead free through the newspaper because it is through Sony BMG of which as you may know Michael Jackson owns 25% of?
hmmmmm?????
If so
I'm again TICKED OFF at his stuck up aSS!!!!!
WTF!!!!!
Why does he insist on being like that. Why is he so ignorant towards MJ.
MJ has never been like this to him.
If it werent for both of them crossing over 2gether in 82/83 we wouldnt have broken the race barrier in radio ect...
and there would not have been no Purple Rain movie betcha by golly wow!
without the crossover of the music video on MTV which really is Michael's hard work or doing and maybe Madonna. Granted they played the 1999 video and little red corvette but that was not all that big a deal until Michael did his videos for Thriller ect. MTV at first refused to play Black Artist videos but Michael Demanded for his to be played!

I kinda wonder bout this????
Sometimes the purple one can really piss me off.
Its like he has mood swings. Good ones and bad ones.
I love his talent but as a person he can really suck.
MJ is not that way as a person. But unfortunately he gets taken advantage of for not being more like Prince or other Rock stars.
Prince needs to remember to have CLASS! You cant just look 2 the 9's as he always does. You have to have Class inside as a person too in this Business. Beauty is not just on the outside its on the inside too and sometimes prince can be ugly inside. Why does it bother him so that MJ would earn some of the 25% profit percentage from his cd?
At least he is a Black Artist like Prince and not some fat white guy that does not work hard with thier creative talent to earn the money the way prince and MJ do and sacrifice at times for thier music career in
touring & promoting and such over the years (3to4 decades for MJ alone) ect.
Something tells me Im right about this and that its not just about giving away free music for planet earth inspiration to the people to save the planet or for a gift to his fans. Its going out to the general public.
I think there is something more going on here.....
Otherwise he would have done a charity song instead or mailed out the cds to just us fans.
If he continues to do stunts like this out of ignorance and dumbass pride he will lose more fans that grew up respecting Michael Jackson and Madonna too.
(PS...Did you see Madonna KICK ASS & rock out on that guitar at live earth! Take that Prince! She gonna catch up with you and jam with your ass! Better invite me if you do an aftershow together and rock out! I better be there or Ill be very upset). Take that for talking bad about her when she was on tour.
She is a musician now so watch yourself Little Man!!!!!
U ain't so PrettyMan anymore...
NO CLASS!
Stop bitching about other artists of equal status and look at yourself first!
As Stevie Wonder says "Check Yourself Before you Wreck Yourself!" Dont be going down like UGLY MF Eminem!
I like the prince that has CLASS! Where did he go?
You need to keep my Respect.
Sorry if you dont like my opiniun on this but I just had to get my opinion out there.
Im not worried over the stupid record store crybaby's although it does hurt them unfortunately. Its sad enough to see all the awsome used mom n pop vinyl record stores fade out here in portland, oregon. I miss those days and those awsome HIGH finds or treasures found in the clearance bins. Once found the 1999 era on the bed with paint brush and neon heart sign on floor can see his bum poster PRN Productions Allen Beaulieu 1984 for $2.00 in the bottom of a poster bin still rolled and sealed aw lord love it girls! They are becoming extinct. But now even the main chains too like Tower Records (my FAVE for new cds on sale) is gone and only one Sam Goody..Its depressing y'all!!! Of course I finally bought a couple sansa ipods this month and burning my 25+ something years Prince, Madonna, and Michael Jackson cd collection onto them.
I dont enjoy haten on prince. Like Madonna said in Truth or Dare "I hate people that hate!". (love the Black Eye'd Peas Song "Where is the Love" (Hate generates hate, Discriminate & your bound to get IRATE! not exact words here but Love that line in the song!. Just dont like Justin Timberfake on it. Male Chauvenist little prick yankin off braws and making a lady take the blame white kid that thinks he can dance and be the next KOP..Hope Madonna pulls down his pants on stage to reveal to the world what a little prick he really is! Get him back Madonna For Miss Jackson!!!) I just miss the prince that had respect for his fellow music contemporarys in his ranks like MJ and Madonna.
The three of them changed music forever the last 20something years.
He needs to remember that all 3 of thier music has the same messages of peace, love and unity breaking racial lines ect....
Take your own advice during One Night Alone Tour Prince and start finding your similarities instead of your differences!!!!
Same to the Prince fans here too cause y'all are ignorant up in hear!
Some of you anyway! Not all of you.

James Brown asked YOU and all of us to LIFT the MUSIC BACK UP! RISE UP! I know you know what that means Prince! and Not just for Black Americans but for all Americans. We need to get our Country BACK! And we have alot of Repairing to do from New Orleans to our Constitution! Michael Moore, you are my HERO! You are a Revolutionary just as Prince, MJ, and Madonna are our Revolutionaries in Music. Thank God for that!

I don't understand the hell what u're talking about.

Apart 4 a few (legitimate) irony towards MJ when he self-proclamed himself the "king of pop" Prince never said a word about MJ.

By the way, it's obvious u don't know much about the music industry, WTF would this has 2 do with anything??? As Newskin69 said, such considarations probably never even crossed Prince's mind when he established his "Planet earth" strategy...

but I'm sure MJ doesn't own 25% of Sony...however, he may own 25% of the Beatles catalog, which may be Sony owned...as I said, I don't care enough to look into it any further. hmm

I do know that Prince doesn't care jack shit about messing with MJ.
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.

I think you will find Mr Dillusional that SonyBmg owns MJ's ass. They bailed him out to the tune of 100's millions of dollars when he fucked up big time and was in serious danger of all his empire collapsing around hgim as he is quite unable to hold it together and release any material of any worth.

Where do some people get such crazy ideas from?

Increase your medication love.


Before you start trying to enlighten anyone else, you should at least take the time to enlighten your own self. Sony/BMG does not own Michael Jackson! get your facts straight! damn, people always talking out their %$#@!

BTW.....how MJ's name get tied into a topic about how Prince chooses to distribute his album is just stupid!

I had to look away a few times, I was so embarrassed for her. It wouldn't have been too bad if she would've just stood there and played a bit, but when she went strutting around, it was very awkward and retarded looking. And the feedback thing at the end was really stupid.
