as told to the SGV on 1.8.06
last year after the Grammy's we got invited to Prince's house for some afterparty type ish. and anyone that knows me knows that I'm a huge fan of Prince. at his house they had this jam session going... basically everyone was jamming out. Apll grabbed the mic and started freestyling, so I decided to get the crowd involved by getting the crowd to cheer. I started saying "rock that shit!" and the crowd would say "rock that shit!". then all of a sudden Apll signals to me to get off the mic. he tells me that Prince doesn't want me to be on the mic. I asked why, and he told me that Prince doesn't like people cussing in his house. I felt really bad. Prince is one of my heroes. so I waited till the party was over and talked to him. Prince comes out of his room and says that he wants to talk to me one on one. he sits me down and starts preaching. "you know brother, you're oppressed. that's why you use that foul language. you need to start praying and become one with your spirituality. you need to change, you're oppressed." I'm looking at Prince thinking to myself, "damn, you got songs like Darling Nicky, Sex, Head, all these songs about sex. there's mad cussing in those songs". It's funny... there's this little man telling me not to cuss in his house, and it's crazy because I totally look up to him. Next thing I know Prince grabs my hand and says, "pray with me, I don't want you to use that foul language ever again." I'm like alright. so we sit there and pray for a long ass time. finally it came time for me to leave so I lean over and give Prince a hug and I say, "aight Prince, you're the shit!". and this is just after he gave me the crazy long ass speech about not cussing. he looked at me and laughed, then he walked away. that's my Prince story.

Christopher said:

OK, is this normal?

Christopher said:

I like Taboo, but that was some real Dum Dum shit!

PANDURITO said:

Cool story. Prince has the right to say he doesn't want cursing in his house and Taboo handled it correctly he listened to wha Prince had to say and then left, that was the cool thing to do.

cute story.

Larry Graham is the worst thing to happen to Prince.

Christopher said:

What an xperience! Taboo should b honored.

Maybe Prince should have pointed out the word RESPECT as well. After all of that, he would still curse at the end? That says a lot.....

Hilarious.

Cussing is not a sin! It's just man made noise.

MaddMaxx said:

Actually there are a couple a other things but Larry ranks in the top 5.

Ha wonder if he meant to "cuss" after the prayer session to make a point or was it inadvertent.

Christopher said:

That's funny. But I have a hard time believing the story.
Is it a "Prince Story" like, one of the org fabricated ones? or did this really happen? I can't see him taking your hand and asking you to pray with him and on top of it, saying it's because HE doesn't want you to curse...that would be like he thinks he's God.

O.K. maybe it is true.

that 's funny!!!!!

I'm not believing this story!

MaddMaxx said:

No. LG is the worst that has happened to you.

prince can lecture me..... all i would be hearing is that deep, calm quiet voice.....

talking bout...uh yes sir ....ok

Oh, the end of that story made me laugh out loud. Cool.

I agree!

I cuss like a sailor, but I can still respect and at least try to restrain my self to not cuss in his house. Whether he's Prince or not he deserve respect in his own home.....

Thank You!

It's called "Manners"!

I don't like hearing people swear especially when it is continuous. Yes it was Prince's house and it was his right to say man get off the mic and not swear at the crowd because it is offensive to me. I think he took it too far when he told him he needed to change and that he was oppressed. How disrecpectful is that! What right is it of Prince's to tell a man that his charcter is not up to par, that he is not spiritual enough and needs to change his ways because he was swearing. I mean c'mon how many of you men don't swear ever? Does that make you a bad person?

And then talk down to the grown man like a child and make him pray, unbelievable.
