Anyone who walks into a room like this will say. "Ooo, Prince must live here, *lol*".

He'll probably be remembered as a crazy JW dictator, who took the final step into obscurity when he passed on a Purple Rain reunion tour & deluxe cd.

Funny! But spot on.Less than 100,000 people on Earth buy his new music now.

PR 30 & reunion can turn this ship around. His next studio album can't be expected to fare any better than AOA & PlEl

Did Prince not invent that? Must I question everything I ever held as true?

"The guy who changed his name to that symbol thing" - if you're over 30.

If you're under 30 then nothing. Prince hasn't had a big song in your music buying lifetime.

You'd be surprised how many teenagers watched the Dave Chapelle skit. Everyone I know (without me telling them) instantly recognizes Prince and know more about the fact that he dresses weird and kicks ass at basketball than his actual music lol

It's more than you can say for, say, Bruce Springsteen or Lionel Richie. George Michael is that 'Last Christmas guy', Madonna everybody knows, Michael Jackson is in his own league. Prince is the most musically inclined out of all of them but his basketball skills/love of pancakes is what I hear about everytime he's brought up! lol

Maybe eye do, just not like eye did before pimp2

For sure, that means no one under 30 knows about him.
