New Sheila E/Prince collaboration... This is about a week late, but maybe worth it...Last weekend Pete Escovedo (Sheila's daddy) was on 98.1 (KISS FM in the Bay Area) and reported that Sheila was in Minnesota w/ Prince working on "a new project".Hmmm...He just made some genernal comments that it's gonna be good 2 see them working 2gether again...I predicted 2 years ago that in 2003 there would be a timely Prince explosion...We r getting closer 2 that occurence as the Dayz Go By... | |

yeah yeah. A prince explosion... right. Didn't everyone say that was gonna happen with Rave? And also with Rainbow Children? And also with ONA Live? And also after the Leno appearances? By everyone, I of course meant, a few .org nutjobs. "Knowledge is preferable to ignorance. Better by far to embrace the hard truth than a reassuring faith.

They'll certainly be an 'explosion' among the Prince 'community' if this project is released. | |

Not too long ago,Sheila mentioned that her next project would be a pop album.Perhaps Prince is working with her on a new pop album? That should be great (IF it happens). | |

all this negative bullshit about prince not getting another hit or exploding onto the scene again w/ success, can kiss my ass...
Because look at prince's career and track record, he has had over 20years of ups and downs, huge success to huge failures and its all apart of the game. Prince is too big a name and household name at that to allow the ppl who aren't the die hards to forget about him, Prince is aging great, still got the voice and the ability to rock a crowd and write beautiful songs...PRINCE will do it again, he just needed time away from the masses and record industry to get it together, after albums that were expected to make a splash again (rave, and some say emancipation) which in my eyes, got Prince back into mainstream for a bit...but after not selling 5-10million w/ those records or making a #1 single or #1 album on billboard, it wouldve been stupid for prince to continue signing deals to fail!!! So he needed to give the industry a break in which he never did, now its been since 1999 that Prince has released an album on a major label...you'd think now he'd be ready to go back out there after getting his jazz experiments off his chest and that tight band that probably wouldn't be recognized in the mainstream world, because kids aren't all about the musicians, or the quality of musicianship and their music, what ever makes ur booty shake and have a strange, space-y sound to it...is what ppl like, you can even repeat, I love dogs and cats all through it and it still goes #1...so stop dissing PRINCE, many artist's have faded in the pop world and come back eventually and some never return, but PRINCE, PUHLEASE! the music world still wants to see what he has to offer, because they know this man is a genius and creates some of the most crazy beats around!!! Just listen to his albums and you'll find something that can be heard in todays music...PRINCE IS NOT FINISHED!!! It seems he'll sign again and working w/ sheila and having this time to play the music he wants has given him a very theraputic time to himself in order to get back in there and give us another industry PRINCE record, thats true and not purposely intended for todays taste...it'll be what we need!!! I'M SURE OF IT, KNOWING PRINCE!!! [This message was edited Mon Feb 10 8:43:47 PST 2003 by NPD313] | |

Prince is like Battlestar GALACTICA:both are sci-fi, people remember them, have some fond memories of them, but it's past, times have changed, and life goes on.
TA-DA! | |

I just think his time in the spotlight is over, and he won't be famous again. Does that mean he won't make good music? No. It just means the public perception of him is too low, he has too much past, he's too old and he's too talented for people to like him. Personally, I could give a damn, but that's all I'm saying.

I certainly think with the proper promotion that Prince could have some hits again but I just don't think it will happen anytime soon. And frankly, if he keeps on putting out quality music like TRC...I don't care all that much. Sure it would be nice to see him back in the limelight again but not at the expense of having these tight ass records and concerts that he's putting out!!!
It seems that recent attempts at hit songs fall into the r&b category for Prince. I like that part of Prince, but I'm really into the jazz and funk vibe he's into now. Maybe we should leave well enough alone. | |

Sheila was fabulous at the celebration. Everybody loved her. I think Prince picked up on this.
It's nice to see him working with a lady that isnot in her 20's. | |

i don't particularly want prince to 'explode' back on to the scene i like that he's secretive and unpredictable.if he goes massively public again he'll only be criticly pulled 2 pieces by the idiots of the music industry and then he'll get all pissed off about it and we won't hear from him for years and when we finally do again he'll just complain. i like having him to myself(i don't know anyone in my social circle who likes him) and i like him the way he is just now he seems a little more chilled. let him stay that way.. | |
