If I was Prince I would do exactly what he does which is what he wants. Too many of his fans are way to critical, I mean he will never be able to release another great cd because no matter what the haters will talk shit. Funny to me so many "fans" would waste their precious time listening to such uninspired new music. Yet where is their work?

Well, based on the reaction of the last 2 songs he released maybe the cats who didn't dig it can expect what they've been waiting for....or maybe not. Who knows, it is Prince we talkin 'bout.

If he keeps making the kind of music he's been making for the past 18 years he won't have to worry about praise. He hasn't had to worry about since 1992.

You are crazy. 'Come' and 'The Gold Experience' are among his best work, and both of those are post '92.

are you sure you want to look inside prince's mind? lol

he issued take-down notices when his fanbase verbally slaughtered him for the Planet Earth album

he doesnt like it when fansites do whatever they like with his art/image

he doesnt appreciate his authority as a musician being mocked

he enjoys praise but only when it's genuine, the in-genuine he invites to his home cuz it's safer to fake the faker than for him to be genuine with the genuine

he wants your respect for him as a musician and truly does not care two silicone tits what you think about him as a person

he will snap you wide awake via scare tactics and bullying if you step out of line all over his heart and/or ego

he will call on any of his multiple personalities to back up what the other personality is doing whether it is right or wrong

he keeps a picture of your face on his ceiling and frequently masturbates over magazines cuz there's lonely and then there's how he's feeling right now

he often wonders if he's Batman's and The Joker's love-child because that is the closest he can come to explaining his jekyl and hyde personality

he wants to be loved, he wants his music to be loved, and he wants to be respected no matter what he does nor to whom

he's your savior and you're the reason why he would die for you

Now, of all the things said on this site about Prince, this is by far the best.

My favorites of the above

This is some classic stand-up material here.

I agree and you can throw The Exodus in there too. Too bad he destroyed those three albums with all the wrong single choices

Sometimes I wonder if Prince is being true to himself. I think Rainbow Children and his exploration in jazz was his last "real" work. I'm amazed that anyone could enjoy the majority of the music he is releasing today. I truly think he has totally lost touch of something within himself. It's called selling out, I think. Still, it's not working for him.

It's funny how he led the charge of music distribution in the early stages of the internet. Yet, now he doesn't quite understand how it works. The difference of tone in these forums since I joined a long while ago shows the disintegration of his support.

Prince might've had someone to say no to him. Some people like the new tunes, and some didn't. And his fans were honest on both sides. I didn't like some songs in the 80's by Prince. But some I did. I'm being HONEST

Have you ever wondered why Prince sometimes is treating his own fanbase badly.. ? Threats, lawsuits, denying re-mastered albums, tour dvd's etc..

And have you ever wished you had the power to look inside his mind, reading his thoughts... to get some answers to all this ?



well I have wondered about it, (don't laugh) and maybe this is the reason why Prince treats his own fanbase badly:

the famous danish film director Lars Von Trier said on TV something about what is inspiring for an artist, and what is least inspiring.

according Von Trier: PRAISE is what is least inspiring, it is very reducing (restricting?) for an artist's creativity if an artsist always gets praise all the time ...

- on the other hand it is very inspiring when an artist gets resistance.




So there you have it: according this little "analysis" Prince doesn't like praise too much because it works restricting on him as a creative artist, he likes resistance from the invironment surround him.

Maybe that is why he is treating the fanbase badly sometimes, he likes to create a little turmoil once in a while, he likes to "play" with us, he likes the resistance from the fans, cuz this is more inspiring for him than all the positivity and praise.




Do you believe me..... or does this sound like I am nuts to you...? biggrin

Lars Von Trier is a pretentious jerk who made stupid movies.

My work is at my workplace. I'd think most of us work as hard as we can so we can buy whatever he deems fit to put out, keeping him in the luxurious lifstyle he's accustomed to, Prince certainly doesn't help put food on my table, though he's free to call me and critique my work skills if he likes. i think even non-fans have the right to critique art and indeed Prince's expert thievery skills via his website, never mind long-term paying fans.

Yeah kind og agrees with you, though I enjoyed "Breaking The Waves" (1996) and "The Idiots" (1998).

I haven't seen his latest "Anti-Christ" (2009), and I don't intend to do so. It includes some explicit violence, I hate violence in movies.
