The Artist

Do you think Prince is worthy of being known as The Artist?

Prince claims that he never called himself 'The Artist', and that that name was a media concoction, stemming from the other media concocted name 'The Artist Formerly Known As Prince'.

'An Artist' might not have had the same ring to it lol

Sure. I'll always call him Prince, though.

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

In fact he's AN astoundingly talented artist.

But THE artist is just too much. Even for him.

"an artist formerly known as prince"

"the artist formerly known as prince"

the implication seems to have come from him.

the artist formerly known as prince.

he is an artist, he was known as prince.

'the artist' is just an abbreviated version of that.

so why is their even a question of being worthy of it?

I thought it was cool that P was calling himself 'The Artist' back when he was using prince as his name, yeah, I think he's worthy of that term or definition. [img:$uid]http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/1.gif[/img:$uid]
