Every report says that this ecstasy trip was a one-time experience. It's very unlikely that Prince ever took other drugs considering all the testimonies from past collaborators that were interviewed by Per Nielsen, Alex Hahn and Liz Jones amongst others.

I don't understand why this is so hard to believe. Prince's drugs are music, sex and God, and that's already a lot lol

The ecstasy story is absolutely, incontrovertibly true.

There are people who were there and implicated in the story who'll tell you that it's true. They've spoken about it.

DRUGS!!? TIGHT!! i have never done drugs and i dont plan on it, however, if Prince did than so be it! it really does make him more human and personally i think its awesome! just look at my baby Jim Morrison. My boy was heavy on every drug known to man, as well as the rest of the band. Jim is a jenius and the doors are an awesome band. Some other examples are Iron Butterfly, Led Zeppelin, & JIMI HENDRIX! so yea that was the time period for heavy acid trips and naked body surfing! which is SOOOOO amazing!! God knows that i wish i could have been able to attend woodstock. Trust me...all my clothes would be off and i sure as hell would be doing every drug known 2 man! lol

Regardless...Prince is doing EVERYTHING RIGHT within his music career. He never lets me down so if drugs are used as inspiration than let the ACID TRIP begin PURPLE 1!!

just DO NOT OVERDOSE honey...that does end well...^^

Love my Purple Man!!<3

Bullshit. Why do so many Prince fans have a problem with their demigod having the odd drink and the odd line? If anything, it makes him more human to me. Who doesn't have some kind of upper or downer? So coffee is OK? Caffeine is pretty damn dangerous if you ask me. Yet its use in society is completely normalised.

Although a few lines didn't help him much on the night of the James Brown gig where Jacko got up too! But that's cool...


I don't have a problem with it, it's just so out of line with the entirety of the rest of his life that I don't think it ever happened.


Yeah, cos its so unlikely that anyone would ever try anything once, isn't it?! wacky

And Prince does admit it himself - the song Annastesia is Prince's description of the whole trip and his subsequent epiphany and re-birth. But, this has all been done to death and there are those here that will never accept it, despite the overwhelming evidence.

And those quoting anti-drug lyrics by Prince - well, he's said many a thing in his time and not practiced what he preached and, of course, as we all do, changed his views about things too. And he's also used drug-imagery and lyrics (a la "Now") to his benefit when it has suited him.

Nobody would ever suggest that Prince was some major drug-taker, but to say he hasn't even tried anything is naive and ludicrous!

And your point is... confused


Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

The point that interests me is that Prince had a conversation with Cat about X and what it feels like. He wanted to try it, and that's a bold move for someone who "supposedly" doesn't do drugs and never had.

My personal perspective: I've tried some. Actually I've tried quite a few in my youth. X was a curiousity to me, mainly because of stories I'd heard about it from female friends and what it feels like (sound familiar?). A friend of mine talked me out of trying it. I haven't since....but I am still curious.

Now if I'd never smoked weed (I have), I'd never thought of trying X, mainly because it's a "hard drug". Why would someone skip the soft drugs and go straight for the hard stuff for their first time?


If someone doesn't smoke and I presume singers looking after their voices don't, then weed would never be appealing.

If he's done drugs, then that's on him. Lots of people experiment and do stuff in their lives, its not for me to condemn him if he has. That goes for anyone.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Didn't seem to do Bob Marley any harm! And I think you'll find that goes for countless singers wink

Oh and Nightgod - ecstasy isn't exactly "hard stuff" and, as a party drug, many people have tried it without coming through a supposed "gateway" drug like tobacco or cannabis. And most have at least tried alcohol, so its not really a fair assumption that taking e's without having smoked cannabis is like leaping straight in to a world of hard drugs.

Its not hard to believe - but the point is that people here are disputing that even that one event ever happened, despite more evidence available than countries go to war on!
