Why Former Associates/Exes dont challenge Prince When He Threatens to Sued?

Prince is up to his old tricks again as he sent out that legal letter as I read off FDeluxe Facebook page tonight. I am not sure what type of letter and the reason why they got that letter from Prince's lawyer as their manager didnt explained it.

And Lisa said sort of in her words "the comments disappeared and big brother is watching" in regards she was telling her story in every few days with one-line comments of how she met Prince on her facebook page. I think Prince is on her facebook account likely under a different name giving her orders about what she should or should not say when involves with him. how else she end up had to delete her comments of the first time she met him. She cant even tell about her experience without had to delete those comments from her facebook page and it wasnt even negative she was telling us of her history. And her experience was in Rolling Stones magazine as I read too why Prince isnt going after them as well? Mess up.

And Jill Jones barely talk about her negative with straight talk without had to delete her Facebook comments in the past but at least she didnt of her latest rant against indirectly him.

Why is Prince associates/exes cant challenge him from speaking their experience with him through social networking or vlogs? I thought freedom of speech applied to them too? They all friends in real life cant they just reunite and tell Prince Hey this is our history and you are not going to keep us silence. And then if he wants to take this to court then they should say Lets do it.

He got that much control in their lives especially when it comes to not speaking about him even though they were only talking about THEIR HISTORY and majority of them no longer works for him? What about confidentality agreements are they lifetime? In Fdeluxe case there are some debate about the name " The Family" since Prince isnt the first one who use that name to my knowledge.

I would love to see Prince associates and his exes do a book of their experience with Prince good or bad or an interview but that wont happen as long as Prince will threatened to sue to keep the book from releasing. And that Dez book I felt he want to tell more but he probably doesnt want to deal Prince possibly in court.

I wondered if his former associates and exes really think Prince is God or something, already Prince believes he have a God complex.

It is bummer that Prince bullies his former associates from telling about their history.

I dont get it. Any thoughts?

They don't challenge him because, ostensibly, he has more money/clout than they do. He could entrap them in litigation hell for years and years and years and they'd end up spending untold amounts defending their right to speak.

Or better yet, what the hell really went down between Prince, Tony M, & Carman Electra?!? And was that incident the main reason why the original New Power Generation disbanded?

Probably nothing. lol

Prince just doesn't like you to know anything before he knows it (or before he tells it to you).

Some people are like that (particularly creative people, imo). They need the constant drama to distract from whatever other issues they have that they don't want/have the courage to face and deal with.

Because they are controllable and weak. Hell that's how they got the job with Prince in the first place.

FDeluxe got the letter over the use of the name:the Family on their new album, I think that's what they were going to title it or something like that. It's now going to be title Gaslight

It's called a non-disclosure agreement. If you sign one, you cannot talk per the terms of the particular agreement. It's that simple. Most people sign one without knowing it when they get a job. If you work/deal with Prince, you'll almost certainly have to sign one. Kevin Smith managed to avoid it so he can say whatever he wants.

maybe he had them sign those papers to protect himself. I mean at that time everyone was pledging their allegences, the revolution is over now. And he is left alone, they are all gone. He was ruff and tuff. He probably did alot of things that he may regret, but things were probably the things that the others weren't willing to do or simply didn't have it in them to do.

maybe he does not want us to know what he sacraficed in order to set us all free....

I think maybe that looks back at that part of his life the way michael jackson looked back at his face from way back then. There is nothing you can do about it, what is done is done. maybe just letting it be keeps certain pains from resurfacing.

what do i know?????

the dude in this,
