The Rainbow Children Artwork.

The Photo of Prince on the actual disc, appears to represent a animalistic alien....The Entire CD, is an advanced narrative....

The Rainbow Children are obviously, wise individuals that have taken into their
responsibility...A "Loving" Work.

Deconstructing the digital Garden....eliminating those that resist the work of loving the world. "The Covenant will be kept this time...."

The Greed that has lived within the corporate world, is the resistance under attack by love....RISE>>>>>

The wise one understood the law that was handed down by GOD....Now, what are your personal beliefs that would lend to Prince's reasoning in having Steven Hawkins perform the narrative, if Prince didn't live these beliefs daily?

And Why do you believe that the artist has drawn an alien like portrait?

I remember when the CD first came out people were speculating that the painting of him with the elongated head was another reference to the Egyptian Pharoah Akhenaten, who was usually represented with having an elongated head and limbs etc. There are tones of references to him in Prince's work from that period.

But I don't know... I think it's just a case of the artist painting a cool profile that Prince dug cool.

I see, that is very interesting, was it also speculated that Akhenaten, in love with his spiritual complement were both murdered for their powerful love, due to the fact they had previously existed as atlanteans?

Like this point someone made...
When he says"the opposite of NATO is OTAN" one person here noticed that OTAN is pronounced in the same way as ATON the God that Akhenaton was praying.

C'Babi is the fine African American artist and illustrator that did the artwork for Rainbow Children, It was not meant to represent anything negative and I think it's very deep. biggrin

It just looks like an exaggerated version of the Slave to the rhythm book cover

The artist drew something that would look cool. Prince liked it. Prince decided to go with it. End of story.

shrug Similar style because Prince always liked it? I doubt it's anything deep.
