And exactly what's wrong with that? Absolutely nothing. • Did you first think Prince was gay? •
Wendy: He’s a girl, for sure, but he’s not gay. He looked at me like a gay woman would look at another woman. Lisa: Totally. He’s like a fancy lesbian. | |

You 80's lot still looking for teenage kicks.... , Prince has done the 80's and moved on ....you lot need to move on too....suckers American Idol is the EXACT kind of thing that is wrong with music today. Grooming these little pets for money not because of their talent. Hell Jennifer Hudson should have won her season, instead she was booted 7th out and the red headed dude who couldn't sing for crap stayed in the competition. Prince complains about the corporate structure and he's a slave and a victim and all thst crap and then he turns around and sells his ass to that same corporate structure. It's called flaming hypcrisy. Aint nothin to do with the 80s. Oh, the 90s is my favorite musical decade overall so you should update your stats Let's get rid of Sheena Easton....then..... .....Yep she did the british talent shows that's how she got her break and Prince saw her... Da, Da, Da....Emancipation....Free..don't think I ain't..! London 21 Nights...Clap your hands...you know the rest..

Ive always said that he has the worst fan base Oh please!!! I betcha his accountant disagrees with that sentiment and would probably slap the shit out of Prince if he ever heard him say that because when his ass couldn't buy airtime, it was us bitchy fans putting money in his bank account and not yet complaining about his descent into mediocrity! I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart. | |

ThreadBare said: skywalker said: Something about songs like Lolita and Chocolate box -Both are throwbacks to Prince's earlier pop sounds (The Time could do both of these.) Both are pop songs like Prince has been doing since Soft and Wet. Prince always has one foot in the pop world when it comes to sound/writing. Yes, he is a musician's musician, but he also is one of the greatest pop song crafters ever. Prince isn't chasing trends with these anymore than he ever has. You think he invented that new wave electro funk of the 80's? No those already existed...he just remade it in his own style. We call it the Minneapolis Sound. Timbaland and todays producers may as well call it "the blueprint". Bottom line: Prince is always incorporating trends into his music and coloring them purple. He has been doing it since day one. But they're horrible songs. I can't get beyond that. I hear The Time in "Never Be Another Like Me," all the way. But "Lolita" and "Chocolate Box?" Not so much. And, Prince has chased trends throughout his entire career, to me. The degree to which he has done so has varied, I think. Has that trend-chasing been accompanied by flashes of greatness and originality? Absolutely. I'm well familiar with Timbaland & Co. mining from P's production bag of tricks. Nothing new there. I just think it's funny that people expect music fans and musicians to not be able to tell when something's subpar, as those two songs certainly are. | |

Seriously tho, I don't think the problem is necessarily when people voice their disappoint with what he's released. I mean it is their opinion regardless whatever you think about it. Its just when orgers like Riverpoet or Wall go extremely overboard in voicing that disappointment in a very immature and unnecessary manner that its just really pathetic and just makes you | |

khemseraph said: no matter what this man does the people on this site are just not pleased.when it was looking that he would debut at number 1 assholes on here were not happy.even though he debuted at a very very respectable number 2 assholes had shit to say.he makes a good video and id be damn if assholes on here were not happy.but if he just filmed a shoot with him and the band (like most of his vids)assholes would be complaining that he dont make real videos.im guessing that he reads the boards on here because the assholes on here were complaining that he dont make rock lps or music that brings back his golden era.well with this new lp he did just that,lotusflow3r is a rock lp and mplsound brings back hs golden era sound and wouldnt you know it assholes complained.i think this site should be shut down and be relaunched as fuckprince.org because thats the attitude most of you have on here.not saying that we have to like everything he does.of course we dont .but man can we get something positive posted on this site.
feel ur pain! wish people were kinder with their criticisms! But don't worry people like u and me do xsist...so if u 4m a positive Prince group please let me know and 2gether we'll battle all 7 and watch them fall! Prince is a gr8 musician and who cares what anybody thinks or says as long as u know it! | |

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said: ernestsewell said: 4) MPLSound is not the golden age. There's no way a song like "Chocolate Box" or whatever against a gem like "Strange Relationship", "Dorothy Parker", "Sometimes It Snows In April" (You can hear the fucking stools squeak for fuck's sake..THAT is raw and real), or the long-suffered "When Doves Cry". SOmeone made the point that Prince pulling out the Linn and using a Camille voice doesn't mean he's suddenly rerecording 1987.
This is my main criticism of this album. The use of the linn is pointless and NOTHING in this set even comes close to touching those golden age songs. If you're gonna come with it, come with it. I was one of the biggest cheerleaders when the new tracks leaked (colonized mind, wall of berlin, forever) and this album had a lot of potential with those as the leaders but this aint no golden age shit, it's just for the most part tired and pointless. You can't trick a 30 year fan. why compare why? u dont wear the same style clothes as u did in the 80's.so why should he play the same kinda music.that was then this is now.musicians get bored doing the same thing over and over guys.why cant u guys accept that.nothing new would ever b created if everyone took that attitude with there music.just let him grow into what he is and dont stunt his growth with wishes of pass sounds damn alredy. stickman | |

It's not the sound of his '80's work that we crave. It's the QUALITY! That's what's missing from his current work. His current work is sub par, mediocre and frankly totally beneath him. Fans being everything but honest enough to say that, is what's stunting his growth! I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart. | |

I agree with this post and alot of musicians get that from some fans. Prince is going to do what he wants to do so it doesn't matter who wants to be stuck there. | |
