Songwriter/Producer Brian Michael Cox Tweets About Prince I don't think that Prince gets the respect he deserves because technically he never crossed over. He stayed playing what HE wanted to play
The closest he came to crossing over was the Revolution and that shit was brilliant.
Bryan-Michael Cox Obviously watching Prince clips. New and Old.

My statement is directly reflected by his standings in the Rolling Stone Top 100 Guitarists. They don't give him his props.
If he had TRULY crossovered they would've given him more respect on that list. He's killing a lot of those in the Top20
furthermore, I know he don't give a shit. I am just saying when a person is GREAT, acknowledge it.
I just don't think it's fair for us not to fight for OUR greats. And he is without a shadow of a doubt one of OUR greats

No shit. I'd say he crossed over pretty huge in the 1980s.

don't see Pricne as an exclusively black artist anymore than they see Hendrix as one. Fail on that point. | |
