Just do what Steve Jobs did in 98.


Take the focus away from the industry, and turn it into the product. Release the product, promote the product, ensure the product satisfies the customer consistently, and eventually the base grows. Be seen as innovative and creative, and never take the focus off the product.


Prince's product is his music. Planet Earth, Lotusflow3r, and 20ten reached millions, but failed to impress. I mean, if you're music is being offered for free in a Newspaper, you make damned sure folks are tripping out on how good it is, so that they'll be willing to PAY for more material.
That's how I became a Prince fan. I heard Purple Rain as a kid, went out and bought Parade--loved both, and ended up buying his back catalogue as quickly as I could.


So, what does he have left to accomplish? He needs international notoriety again. He is UNKOWN in Bangkok--one of the largest cities in the world. Madonna, MJ, and even Usher are known--not so with Prince.

What could possibly be left for him ? Is there anything left ?


Open the vaults razz

Cant believe my purple psychedelic pimp slap pimp2

And I descend from grace, In arms of undertow
I will take my place, In the great below

What he could do is a reality show where upcoming bands could play all his hits live.

We could then see him in action mentoring and advising them - something he's been doing for years to other artists.

"Prince don't know how many hits he got"
