Yes I believe this is true. Prs Have finally reached a royalty deal with YouTube, so it wouldn't just be Prince. although he's one of the few who stood up for his music rights.

so far im not seeing too many Prince videos on Youtube...

BlackAdder7 said:

me either.

Too late. joe public isn't looking for Prince on youtube anymore. Instead of 'Get On The Boat', Prince missed it as usual. He continually displays he has next to no media savvy and nobody on his payroll with any brains.

You always seem so confident when guessing what Prince is up to, even at things only Prince himself would know...

Unless...

You are him

Just kiddin'
I hope Prince videos appear soon so I can show some of my friends just how amazing he truely is

Meanwhile, to the best of my knowledge, the source that posted this news also posted an unauthorized Prince video via YouTube. Irony?

Anxiety said:

If it was via the YouTube account "mplsound" - that is Prince's official account. AFAIK everything posted by Doc Funkenberry has come from that account.

Anxiety said:

Has it been taken down? Prince being the stickler for fun he is, link to it and we'll find out, and in all likelihood kill this thread in it's tracks!

Militant said:

That's what I assumed, though I have been given reason to believe otherwise. Business as usual at Paisley Park, I guess.

Anxiety said:

But you've been wrong so so so sooooo many times before, that I just don't know about that.

Imago said:

you're right. everything i've ever posted on this site has been a lie. and i did it on purpose just to be mean.

...and to think, a part of the fanbase spent $77 to, in part, perhaps see some vids on...what was that site again? fotusrhododendron or some shit?





...even the edit's all like "smh"

wtf!


on the one hand, wow, finally.

on the other hand, why the hell did i pay him $77 if youtube was gonna do it for me.


i'm about over this mf.

Militant said:

i just went to the account and on the age it said that 'mplsound' was 45...and prince is not 45...hes 51...

everyone is older on the internet. or younger.

SomewhereHereOnEarth said:

i have a feeling that it very well COULD be an "official" page, but we mere mortals were not meant to discover it - a little detail that was overlooked when prince's PR lackey was issued their latest exclusive. ah well. fiddle-de-dee and tra la la.

Way to go P, just like in LOVE, if yu fight for what u believe in, and never give up, love can win

If it's true, it is fucked up. Oh well, it's not surprising seeing who we are talking about.

how twisted that Prince's maniacal money whore hungry ways can be twisted to such idealistic ways

Theres this thing, a somewhat philosophical concept... its called "being consistent"... It doesn't mean much in your world, but in the legal world it certainly does.

lezama said:

Prince being consistently a cunt, yeah I get that.

lezama said:

thing of it is, at times the cat is OVERLY consistent.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

LOL... well what do you want? Someone who's only sporadically a cunt? At least with his consistency you'll never have to be surprised by anything cunty he does. Which is why it always baffles me why so many people here get worked up over his behavior. He told us all over 26 years ago how it was gonna be with him. Anyone who gets upset at Prince not doing things the way some norm or standard says it should be done at this point has a problem learning IMO.

Anxiety said:

You just hit the nail on the head.

I found the account by accident before there was anything on there. I think I may have been checking out who had the usernames for lotusflow3r and mplsound for shits and giggles.

I saw that it had been registered so I subscribed to it. I think I actually may have been the first subscriber to that account.

lo and behold, two weeks ago I get an email notifying me that a new video has been posted to the account, it was one of Bria's songs.

Pretty sure the same web guys running the LF site are maintaining it at P's request.

biting the hands that feed him then crying foul wasn't on the piece of paper he read from. probably scribbled it on an empty space in the margin at one point. the excuse of "but that's how he is" ain't cutting it.
