I guess all the haters and criticism aimed at Prince for his business decisions since the split with Warner, have to shut up and fellow artists have to sit up and take notes. Prince is now in full control of his creative works and his money with a pocket full of money and alot of happy fans. In the interviews i've seen i pretty much concluded his intelligence was above average and this is just proof. Criticism came from everywhere, from ex-business associates to fans and now their barbs look and sound pretty stupid. Now i get what Prince meant about a "new, power generation" from the Gold Nigga album and about "the day you wake up is the day you get the real cream" from '2045'.

I totally agree - but please your comment in the existing thread, thanks.
