He's just shit-talking and being hypocritical. The insinuation behind the song No More Candy 4 U is that he won't give people music to criticize and bitch about, but I'll be damned if we didn't end up with "Purple and Gold", "Cause and Effect", and "Hot Summer" anyway.

He's dissing Candy Dulfer, only like Prince can do.

Prince may be the purple Yoda, but Wendy & Lisa and Eric Leeds also sit on the Jedi Council.

ok. the lyrics have me really confused, maybe that's why.

also the part where he says 'no more candy for the people who say life imitates music'

cuz i remember him once saying 'art creates society' or something like that.

apart from that, the whole 'no more candy 4 u' slogan reminds me of those guys who hang around pre-schools offering candy to little children, to go for a ride in his car..

at least Prince re-considered his career path lol

this too shall pass

i love it's got old skool vibe plus i love when he goes all obnoxious & challenges fans with a bit of old fashioned fuck u hatred

his vocals are amazing on this track, real dirty & gangsta

the live version, was it the french canal gig? where it went all reggae, that was really cool

I saw this performed three times (he restarted the song 3 times because he didn't like the sound) at Last Jam at Paisley Park last October. I have a whole new appreciation for it. It rocks harder live.

Peace...

In the cold = I believe Prince did fire Candy from the band right before the London tour in 2007.

No More Candy 4 U

9 out of 10 mortals agree today; too much fame causes spiritual decay

To all the punks who believe life imitates music
No more candy for you we can't hang with you
To all the punks who wanna b rock stars and do what they do
There's no future for you that's the life of a fool
No more candy, no more candy for you we're too funky and you can't handle our groove

To all the freaks in the magazines who never paid no dues
No more candy for you, you can't sing it's true
To all the freaks walking into walls somebody put a spell on you
No more candy for you, I guess the devil got a brand new fool

[Chorus]

To all the haters on the internet somebody's lookin' at you
No more candy for you they got your number now, fool
To all the suckers winning anything and thanking the lord for what
They do
No more candy for you, no more candy for you

I am too funky and you can't handle my groove

©NPG Records

Peace ... & Stay Funky ...

~* The only love there is, is the love "we" make *~

Does that mean when Prince wins his Lifetime Achievement Award, he won't be thanking Jehovah? confuse

I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

Prince once told Matt Lauer he didn't pay attention to whether or not prefab music acts paid dues. Guess he changed his tune in 4 years.

Zzzzz.

I LOVE this song. It has great energy on it and it's just a fun rocking song. I usually put this on repeat when it comes on. headbang

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
