Are Prince Fans Reactionary?

Every now and then I come across a post, stating something like "well, RAVE wasn't my favourite album, but it's still better than most of the stuff out there...". I wonder, how interested Prince fans are in today's music - do they only listen to the shit, that can be heard on the radio, or do they make an effort to learn of new great records, by reading music magazines or investigating record-shops?
Are Prince fans old-fashioned and deaf to the good "stuff out there"?

FIRST!!

And yes. To everything you said. I am old-fashioned and deaf to the good stuff out there. Except Cee-Lo Green and his Perfect Imperfections.

do you really think you can lump everyone into one category like that?
I'm sure some Prince fans only listen to the radio, and some prince fans listen to a diverse selection of music.
and some maybe somewhere in the middle.
what are you getting at?
"not a fan" falloff yeah...ok

Not lumping anyone. Just asking a question. That's what the ? stands for.

I haven't heard any 'good stuff out there' in a very VERY long time. So no I personally don't listen to much radio except for the oldies station on my way to and back from work.

Indeed

What is this good music that can be heard??

Its 90% awful, and the 10% is not much better, otherwise I sure as hell wouldn't get excited about some middle aged past it superstar selling his two bit religious bullshit over the waves...

Ofcourse every now I then I go to the radio or watch music videos, but more than 90% of my MUSIC world revolves around Prince's music...music

Good question. I think the music was better in the 80's. Even most kids from today would agree. I do like a lot of the production on r&b records. But, there is nothing that can hold a candle to Prince.
