Hilton Als writes for The New Yorker. He can be wildly ridiculous, but this might be interesting. | |

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

Maybe they meant Im Your Wakefullness/Awareness? lol "Climb in my fur." | |

But if it's a paean to Prince (as claimed), you'd have to think it was a quotation of the lyrics. I think he just got it wrong. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I have the issue right here. It is a long article. Either read it at the store or wait for the website to insert it, if they do.
All you others say Hell Yea!!  | |

"as well as production duties on a number of albums by other artists (Sheila E., Sheena Easton, Mavis Staples, Vanity, the Mary Jane Girls, the Time)..."
Mary Jane Girls???
It's an interesting read... more about Hilton Als's longing for love projected onto his longing for the Prince of "Black Queens"--the colored, queered, pre-pop Prince.

Ok, I finally read this and I feel:
1. This seems like a chapter out of Kcoolmuziq's diary
2. Imago wrote this in his parody style
3 Androgynine lives/ Jew Dreamfirstborn did this
