I have not read it yet but I am sure the article is good. Look who the article is about. I be glad when they give our Royal Badness the Hollywood Walk oF Fame. What is with these people he should have had this longtime ago. Come on. | |

Sometimes you people (the lighter persuasion) really get on my nerves. These publications are celebrating and honoring his genius despite records sells or a world-tour. The other- whiter publications tend to exploit or have monetary intentions when Prince graces their cover. | |

A star on the walk costs $20,000. That's all it takes to get one. I could get one. So unless someone pays for it he's not likely to buy one. Also, there isn't a cool way to kneel down and stick your hands in wet cement. Can you see Prince doing that? I can't. | |

If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

What a bloody stupid thing to say. You can't know much about Prince if you make that kind of comment. | |

Do you not see that you are just as bad as Desire2006?! Your "sometimes you people (the lighter persusaion) really get on my nerves" quote is just as retarded and prejudiced as what Desire said. Hardly promoting inter-racial harmony are you, by generalising that all white people think this way? Had you just dealt with the person who said it - i.e. "YOUR comment got on my nerves" rather than exclaiming that this is how ALL white people think then it would have been appropriate and not contentious. ...we have only scratched the surface of what the mind can do...

I read the article the other day. Rashod Ollison, basically talks about Prince's career past and present; changes in lyrics and religion. Also, how Prince opened the floodgates for many new pop stars. Ollison concludes, " Now 30 years later, Prince has absolutely nothing to prove". All the pictures look HOT, HOT, HOT. He will be old when he is 95. Even then he will look 60. Shout outs to all the Gemini's, who look forever young. | |

androgynous & sexual lyrics. Prince has always to me been more than that. Maybe that is why now he says he made mistakes in his life... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | |

for those who don't know, "Jet" is like "pocket Ebony", same shallow magazine but smaller. Actually the article was a bit better though still no new information | |

Hmm...White magazines...I guess he could try to get on the cover of Muscle Fitness, or Better Homes and Gardens. | |

before rolling stones and some of the other more well known publications, there was ebony and jet. In the African American communities, both publication are like rollinstones newsweek and time magazine all in one. During, the early days of his career, these were the only magazine that did not misquote him during rare interviews. There were some teen mags also like righton! and soul beat. so there's a long history within the African American and Prince dating back to 79 | |

This pic is so damn funny to me I think it should be on every page of this thread [Edited 6/29/10 12:04pm] There came a time when the risk of remaining tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. Anais Nin. | |

OMG! To the person who made the statement about what's wrong with White mags., may I suggest the following: When you are misunderstood -- which I believe you are -- please: 1. apologize and/or say you're sorry for the misunderstanding BEFORE you begin defending. Jumping to defense only makes matters worse for you and those who are uncertain or who are offended. 2. state your intention. 3. Ask for suggestions of how your intention could have been received AS intended. This works not only when the topic is race and ethnicity, it's just human stuff.
For the folks whose buttons were pushed by the statement, may I suggest the following: Please: 1. Ask what the other person intended without using words that sound judgemental. I really like and use the following phrase, "Help me understand your intention when you ... ." 2. Going with their intention, give suggestions regarding language or actions. 3. Then, if you believe it will help build relationships and help and is in the highest good of you and the other person, share the impact of their behavior on you.
Good grief people, we MUST learn to address issues is disrespect respectfully. SOMEBODY has to stop the insanity. Sometimes my buttons are pushed so fast and so far in that I can't respond in this respectful way. And, I'm building muscles daily so I can be a voice of respect and reason.
Thank you. | |

I am glad that Prince is doing interviews with African American magazines, Prince deserves respect. It bothers me the names ( the diminutive rocker, the elfin wunderkind) that White magazines like Blender and Rollingstone call him. How come nobody calls Bruce Springsteen diminutive?
Is it just me or did Jet used to come in the same size as Ebony? | |

PRINCE HAS ALWAYS DONE WHAT EVER HE PLEASES NO MATTER WHAT THE HATERS SAY. BE CAREFUL I AM BEGINNING TO THINK THERE ARE SOME HATERS DISGUISED AS PRINCE FANS...........U THINK? | |
