"...P's black strut."

Actually, this light, sprightly, dancing, mercurial gait he has, as if he was walking on air cusions - I thought that was a Gemini thing. It's an air sign after all:)..

Prince comes from a time in music when people not only tried to have their own sound, but a look and image of their own, also. He's just being an individual, which is something these current artists haven't known a thing about in more than 15 years.

He needs to continue on with the hair, makeup, and custom made clothes. Stars are supposed to carry themselves like they are better than other people. When they started looking and acting "down to earth", that's when they became boring. As for his shitty attitude, it's not severe enough, because he stills puts an occassional song on his albums that attempt to appeal to today's listeners. It's like an orgasm to my ears when he shits on the current artists but he needs to practice what he preaches and not do any songs that would fit in today.

Good Points VainAndy. I am amazed that people don't see that Prince is playing the role of a star. He is not going to be seen out in jeans and a t-shirt.
I also think a lot of people do not understand black cultrue. The George Jefferson walk that people are talking about his P's black strut.

All most all brothers have a strut.

I'll bet there are aspects to Prince's genius that would blow our minds, He could probably study something and mentally just figure it out like teaching himself so much about music, he's obviously got an untapped thirst for knowledge
He seriously needs to have a child and pass those genes on! nod


i completely agree!

there's nothing wrong with nerd geek if it leads to such a fantastic human being!

hail to the geek- for they shall inherit the earth! wink

it seems no matter how hard he tries to be "cool" i can see the young insecure cat in him thats trying to fit in and be accepted by being "different"
Its just something I pick up by watching him.
Him being a gifted person has given him a hedge over many but he has many complexes about him and he has to carry himself to be the top dog in the world he created around him. I can sense a constant need of him to be seen as cool. its kinda sad but thats alot of people for you.

It just shows that that is something many cant grow out of. I mean the man is 50 and still has to strut and pout like george jefferson,lol
the make up and the sunglasses gotta come off at somepoint fam.
yet-
rock on homie! lol
this just my observation cool

I agree with your observation 100%. In spite of the show he seems rather vulnerable and he still tries very hard to fit in and to be accepted. You would think a man of 50 years would have overcome many of his insecurities by now, but Prince seems just as vulnerable as he was in his 20s.
I also believe Prince's superior intellect is absolutely underestimated. If Prince would have put his interest into sience instead of music, we would have another Einstein. The man is a genius and a very sexy one at that.
By the way, this is one of the best threads in a long time!

Not sure what you mean by "cultrue." But it's true that many black entertainers, including Prince, seem more interested in putting on a show with their personality & presence than focusing on anything of substance.

I'd much rather the guy take away the pretense, wipe off the makeup & just play. He doesn't need 4 inch heels to sit at a piano.

Oh & you also might have meant to type "almost." It's a good thing "brothers" have a strut, because that's really something to aspire to in life. One of the essentials of insubstantial living.
