Nobody can Pimp anybody...People try...although they realize at some point that life is pre-recorded. And if someone Pimps somebody...it comes full circle in the end.

Prince doesn't pimp anyone. However, it is worth stating that i'm sure that there are some women who have taken advantage of Prince.

Thats a very malicious thing to say. Those Proteges of his Make alot of money and get first class treatment , and u know it. Those Proteges have an easy life when they work for him.

yeah and?
they pimpin him for that easy life as you put it and he pimpin them cuz they look good and most likely give him sexual favors in exchange and he still gets paid.

Nothing malicious in what i said, it just happens to be the nature of many an exchange between and older successful dude with a history of courtin' young honeys and young honeys tryin to find that easy life with first class treatment. Its not like somebody standing on the street corner at 3am trying to make 100 bucks from some stranger. And at the end of the day, Prince still come out on top! pimp

Do u realize that u are insulting alot of innocent people. There are alot of respectful people in the music business. Including Prince and some or all of his Proteges. Just because a person is goodlooking doesn't make them easy and it doesn't mean that they pimp themselves. And SEX is healthy. Just because they have sex doesn't mean they pimp themselves.

what innocent people u talking about? we R talking about Prince and his proteges and the record aint looking too good for either side. So what if ur good looking! What does that have to do with pimping to get what you want out of life? If we replace the word pimp with hustle, I don't think you would be getting uptight or irked. Yeah sex is healthy and if some people want to use it get what they want then well I guess what you get determines how good your sex is. Given the Prince proteges...they rank anywhere from 3 to 7!

Prince is a playa aka pimp and I have no problem with it. I'm not gonna put him on some pedastel and act like he's all holy and can do no wrong. There's business and then there's fuckin around. Prince fucks around IMHO more than he handles business when it comes to these proteges and that's why we get one album from them and then they're Ghosts!

I wouldn't have to work with him personally to be of that opinion... But feel free to ptove me wrong. I just hope you are aware of the fact that he's not perfect.

Well, because obviously Prince has alot of money and he lives first class, so i am sure he treats his women to the same first class.

Well i haven't worked with him either nor do i know him on a personal level, but i can sense from his Music and published interviews that Prince is a very fair Man and that he treats his Lovers or Girlfriends and people he works with very well. And the PROOF is in the fact that he is successful to this day.

Oh he certainly can be great. But he's also got his bad sides (but who doesn't?), like his constant cheating and him being a control freak. And please don't say that you don't think Prince is a cheater rolleyes
