I'd have to agree that the synopsis of the article isn't really copyright infringment. Those things are meant as media blurbs and meant to be used in whatever capacity to promote the magazine. I'm not sure how this differs from posting news articles from CNN or something. The synopsis is a news item, not the article itself. | |

I just called the Barnes & Noble in Madison. They said they have a drop date of June 17.
I'll check back, of course - but I'm thinking everyone needs to chillax. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

That's what I thought too, since it was not the "actual interview" but a snippet of what to expect from it. | |

How do you know this? | |

Obviously, but we also know that the Org fears attacks from Prince's lawyers, not Ebony. Neither Ebony nor Prince could sue for publishing the teaser that was snipped (fair use + as you say this is a promotional text), and Ebony probably would never sue for an article scanned and Prince's lawyers legally couldn't BUT Prince's lawyers could send a (illegitimate) cease & desist JUST for the pleasure of putting some pressure on the Org, something Ben probably and understandably wants to avoid, which is why we won't have this article here, which is too bad for all of us non-american folks who can't buy it anyway [Edited 6/3/10 12:14pm] A COMPREHENSIVE PRINCE DISCOGRAPHY (work in progress ^^): https://sites.google.com/...scography/ | |

It's how every interview goes. It's a blue print to his interviews.
Father moved out when Prince was 7 Prince left home, didnt' get along w/ the stepfather Prince was a worldwide phenomenon during Purple Rain Prince had contract issues with Warner Bros, "scrawled 'slave' on his face" and changed his name Prince became an independent artist doing one-off deals with EMI, Arista, etc. Prince found a cult religion to be part of thanks to his big brother Larry Graham Prince stopped cursing, because you can be a slave to bad language (he told will.i.am that HE (will) was a slave when he curses - Will said, "Whatever man, you're still the shit.") Promoting his latest album/website - chocked full of "exclusives".
To spice it up, the interviewer will talk about the "inner sanctum" of Paisley Park, how clean it is, how there are candles lit all over the place, and how Bria is skulking around in the background waiting on her prince to motion for her to make an appearance. Or how Prince has a new home, or a house he's renting with silk or satin pillows with the symbol on them. Prince might also crack open the New Phony World Bastardization Translation of the bible and read how so-n-so did something and it pleased Jehovah God.
Oh, the reporter will also note that they weren't allowed to even have a pad and pen to write things down.

And there it is. I figure that as the synopsis too. I'd honestly be shocked if it's not like that. "You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup...Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend." - Bruce Lee
"Water can nourish me, but water can also carry me. Water has magic laws." - JCVD | |

OK. But while I'm in that section at the newsstand, I'm picking up a copy of Black Tail as well, dammit. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

It's the "h" from the Johnson Publis"h"ing Company watermark that's been rather haphazzardly photoshopped away. [Edited 6/3/10 12:49pm] I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart. | |

Just wondering where in the world you are databank? Ebony is available internationaly, so unless you are living on some remote island, it should not be too difficult to pick up. Hope you can get one somewhere. | |

I am not talking about months here. We heard about the giveaway of Planet Earth at least two weeks before the newspapers publication, some may even have heard of it before that. My comment of ".........leaked long ago" seems to have been misunderstood. I still believe that if there was a cd giveaway with this issue of Ebony, then we would have heard about it by now.

Man, that looks JUST LIKE that new Werchter Park (cartoon sketch) concert poster. "You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup...Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend." - Bruce Lee

I can't wait to read the article & if the never before seen pics are like the cover shot - I'm gonna love them, too! I just hope I don't gag on his religious talk. Call me old school, but I like my Prince a little dirty.
It's looking good for those of you who are predicting a new album soon. He doesn't put himself out there unless there is a reason!

Prince and Ebony chose the "perfect" time to do this interview...Purple Rain movie anniversary just around the corner....and all the "hype" expected on the anniversary of MJ's death. Purple People Lovers won't get "caught up". My best to Prince....."Forever In My Life". Lemme | |

So no one has said whether they picked up the magazine or not. The site says it's on news stands now. Does anyone have it? | |

Wasn't that last summer (25 years in 2009)? Either way, I wasn't paying attention for that.

unseen pictures maybe with Bria and him together. So happily in love
Prince: "Bria is pregnant!" OH NO! Prince: "We want to marry this year!" OH NO! Prince: "We're just very good friends!" OH YEAH!
