quick question? does prince read the stuff on this website?

I hope not , i would be really embarrassed



and i dont think he has the time to really read all the stuff we say anyway but i always wonder


Plus i know if i was to meet him in person he wouldn't like me because i like to stay whats on my mind

i would be starstruck of course but i would mos def manage to say something offensive (and not on purpose )

prince reads everything here

that's why he hardly releases any new music these days, cuz he spends all his time online reading all the shite that people post, and that's why his new music is shite, cuz he hates all his fans cuz of what they write

i dont really know the rules for posting articles shrug so mods please forgive my ignorance boxed

anyways this interview came was in 2001 called The Y-Life Interview nod ill post the most important part nod
-----
Y-Life: How did you first get online?

Prince: Instantly, the thing that attracted me to the Net was the idea that I could reach a lot of people without going through a matrix. Unfortunately, the Net is a reflection of what's going on in the world. School shootings, things like that. It reflects that kind of violence. That's why I don't live there. Here in Paisley, it's a very isolated environment. You can't just see all that pornography and deceit and mendacity all the time. That's what the world has become. There are pockets of beauty out there still, though.

Y-Life: Where are those pockets of beauty on the Net?

Prince: That's a tough one. I'm not one to judge what is beautiful. I do know what isn't beautiful. Everybody's a critic. People are flaming each other without any knowledge of the effect it has on others—the kind of physical, psychological effect it has on them.

Y-Life: Have you been in chatrooms devoted to your work?

Prince: A couple of times—not much. When I first started, I tried one time to unify a group splintered by whether I was still "funky" or not. That question still goes on, obviously. But what ended up happening was that I got a webmaster out of it—Sam Jennings, who runs the NPG site out of Chicago. But I guess what I find beautiful on the Internet is wherever I find agreement. That's beautiful even to people who are full of hate.

Y-Life: Don't we need disagreement before we can have agreement?

Prince: I believe people of like mind will agree. This'll sound like a cliché, but people need to be under a creator. Clive Davis doesn't want to take any direction from me. Should he? You tell me. Is this the music industry? All the musicians, please stand up. Miles Davis and Duke Ellington went to school for music. They learned how to create; they became seasoned performers. Now they pop these kids out like it's nothing. And the record executives say, "We love music." You love music? You can't even tap your foot on the two and the four.

Y-Life: There was a quote on your site recently, saying "Beyoncé can sang!" Was that from you?

Prince: The tidbits of information on the site don't come from me. Sometimes people will ask me a question, and I'll give them a quote. My end is shipping out the music. But it's evident that Destiny's Child is an industry act. We want to keep the focus on why they're successful. And that's because of the people in the group, not because of the label and the marketing. That's why you'll see tidbits like that, about Beyoncé and other performers. The people that are here at Paisley with me—we're all like-minded. They stay free—and free means free. And that's what the club is about. It's a haven for anybody who's got their music and is free. We're all very down-to-earth. No matter what the press likes to write about me.

Y-Life: So what kind of Web sites do you like to visit?

Prince: I go to the educational ones. I like to study history—especially Egyptian history. I don't want to start endorsing any sites right now, but I like the ones that go back the furthest. 'Cause I'm interested in how we got in this predicament in the first place. You can talk about symptoms all day long. But I like to talk about solutions.
