Jamie Lidell does this weird stuff beatboxing and sampling his own voice live. It's really hard to explain but fascinating to watch.

[Edited 8/15/08 5:34am] true. but in prince's case its different. its part of his style provoking and going from one extreme to another. and he got us right where he does all the time: talking about him and thinking about why he does something. i guess the answer is quite simple: because he wants to. and this kind of arrogance is so intelligent and funny and interesting although its actually just being openminded and pushing the borders. thats why prince is the only one i respect as an artist who i dont mind about making fun of any kind of people. is its some black silver-chain dude rappin about fucking all kind of "bitches" and then making fun of white people i just laugh along. but when prince does it i laugh, like REALLY laugh plus im white and i live rhythm. i also live melody, people say black people dont have the feeling for. bullshit. it all happens in your mind, heart and soul. not through the colour of your skin. | |

In 1982, it was all about having fun, and we all knew it
Something changed in the late '90s though... and those who know, know. | |

Very true. But as a white guy I have issues. For one I can't dance and for another I have a small penis. Damn, no wonder the black community feels like the white's hate them. And not really wanting to continue but feeling compelled to do so I'd just like to say I still resent womankind for taking a bite of that bloody apple. We had it nice and cushy and the stupid cow goes and listens to a talking snake! I mean, come on! No wonder they're always taking out store cards. | |

EmeraldSkies said: white people don't have a great sense of rythym
I think it's just some people in general that don't have a sense of rythm,not just white people,heck I'm sure there are even black people that don't have a sense of rythm,it really just depends on the person.. Prince yep that's my cousin 4 sho man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81 | |

Jeffiner said: It IS funny, because it's mostly true!! When I used to dance, and if people clapped along to anything, they would nearly always get it wrong, clap too fast, too slow, clap on the wrong beats, it was really off putting! It always amazes me how people can't clap along in the right places, or when they dance, they dance off the beat, they just can't seem to hear it or feel it - no rhythm in their asses! Anyway, I'm white, but I CAN clap in time, and I'm funky too!! I must have some black blood in me It's like that Richard Prior sketch, where he laughs at how white people 'walk' - that is SO funny!
that's y i love getting video from europe .. man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81 | |

RodeoSchro said: robinesque said: I get the feeling that Prince is poking fun... that white people don't have a great sense of rythym... we need a little extra help with clapping
"all the white people clap your hands on the 4 now... 1 2 3 FOUR" anyone else hear this? With the exception of me and my fellow Prince fans, all white people lose any funkiness they may have had by the time they reach 30. There should be a law that says white women over the age of 30 are not allowed to try to get funky on the dance floor. This may be news to the non-Prince world, but doing the hand-jive DOES NOT qualify as funk. man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81 | |

What if a white artist had sung "all the black people clap your hands"? Sorry to say, but i find it rasistic. What if Three Dog Night would have sang..."Joy 2 the world...all the boys and girls...except the racist idiots still running around thinking white folx have no rhythm and that black folx should never wear cowboy boots?" "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |
