im in nyc and i know stations wbls,kiss-fm or even z-100 wont even touch lotusflow3r nor mplsound which is a shame cause i thought music radio was 4 the people but looks like music programmers are so stuck on (auto-tuned hip hop) or watered down r and b...to make a dare or statement black radio needs to step up and play this cd it would at least show there listening to us..i need feedback on this.....

if the black radio wont play, then the rock stations will play, those are rocks songs on on lotusflow3r, not that [N word is a racial slur snip - luv4u] mess.

what the fuck???

Everyone should send multiple email to stations of their choice and insist that they play Prince's songs....I tried this when Planet Earth was released...don't know if it helped but soon after they did start playing SHOE and Mr. Goodnight.

Come on everyone, let's try it.

hi Lou

Looks like someone created a new Prince.org Username to show their "True Colors".

lolololol.

I think it's a "bait-job".

Most of Prince's rock mentions his dislike of slavery, and continued discrimination (in the industry).

Yep. He has to be smacked by The Recording Industry first, but he ain't necessarily a closet KKK member.

Rock = So-called Black Gospell Music + The Blues

Yep. Hendrix was a hyper-bluesman.

He won't need Coors where he's gone

Actually, wkrs-kissfm played "Call My Name" back in 2004 for more than 2 years on a regular, daily basis, at least 3 to 4 times daily. They also have had the lunchtime special many times of Prince's music, mostly classics, but the point is, they do play his music.

As far as the new material, Prince is not the only artist whose new music is not playing on radio stations other than black radio. The problem is, like you mentioned, many are stuck on the hip-hop thing.

On another note, I'm glad the luv4u banned that character that made that ignorant and unnecessary statement on this thread.

This may sound ridiculous...Hating the N word all of my life I believe that ignorant people should be called "Iggers," because stupid thinking was not born in Nigeria.

This thread is so sad Who would come on a site dedicated to an African-American and say such crap? Really sad

Please
