He has put a few things for free. In the end projects fall to wayside all the entertainment industry the difference is we know about failed because of the Internet and years ago we did not have the info.

How about going on the Tonight Show to promote the Musicology Tour and saying this was the last time we will hear the hits. And he will be sad to retire Purple Rain.

LIAR !

That the Revolution will be colorized.

Seriously, what's this WILL business? The Revolution was one of the most racially diverse bands of their day, a move taken straight from Sly Stone.

And if that isn't his angle, what was? That they'd be colorized; as in remastered? Haha... No. Maybe he meant that he would slap a new coat of paint of them like in 1999 the New Master? Well, he wouldn't be lying if this was his angle so let's move on.

That he is an intellectual of great merit because he referenced a famous quote? Look, I'm not calling prince an intellectual or not, he's one of the most talented musicians out there, he's penned brilliant lyrics and he's managed to make millions without a label for 20 years but... No. Just no.

Sorry, just wanted to be a smartass tonight smile oh, and I misread the title of this thread to be about Prince laying on me. Don't worry skipper, I don't bite. 👍🏼 actually, that would be the biggest lie Prince has ever laid on me, that he's straight! I always thought of him as being bisexual.

Bruised from you leaving me.

“What happened with The Roots’ guitarist’s guitar, the one that you threw after your performance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon?” I ask.

“What?” he says.

“Didn’t you borrow a guitar from him and then throw it after your set? It was all over the news.”

“No,” he replies, straight-faced. “Another thing that’s different about this organization is that we don’t think about that,” he says, pointing at the TV.

Coming out in March 2006 - Tamar, Milk and Honey

Coming out in May 2006 - Tamar Milk and Honey

Coming out in August 2006 - Tamar Milk and Honey

Ready for Christmas, Tamar Milk and Honey

2008- Who was Tamar again, oh meet my new protege Bria.

.

As the guy above me said with embellishment "20-- (Insert year in last two digits) is going to be big"

.

This will be the year for new Prince music, "I am putting out at least 3 new albums this year. Soon as I record them, out they go"

.

"Real music by real musicians"

"Who got more hits than Prince?" ummm Madonna, MICHAEL JACKSON, Kanye, Beyonce, Jay Z, Nicki Minaj, shall I go on lol

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name

Prince never said there would be remasters of the WB albums.
Prince never said he was releasing PR30.
Prince has never said he wants to release more from the vault.

To lie about something you need to make an intentionally false statement.

ie saying "X will be release on [date]" is only a lie if at the time of speaking he had no intention of releasing X.

I think I'll start with recently and then work backwards. giggle



He took all of his music off Spotify and other streaming service sites because...hell I don't know...but then turned right around and released Stare on Spotify. whofarted

He had fans all excited that he'd answer questionS on Facebook but then he answered a total of 1 question that seemed planted. disbelief

He decreed in 2010 that "the internet was is completely over" but as it kept right on rolling along without him even more, he then turned around and joined Twitter, Facebook and created a Youtube channel. falloff

...

So what's the conclusion?

Prince is so amateurish in many ways, in how he is running his career, right...?

Over half of what people complain and list as lies are really just things stated by the press and presented as stuff coming from Prince

- I'm never playing song x, y, or z live again

- I changed my name for spiritual reasons and because God told me to.

- "Lifetime Membership" to the NPG Music Club. Also, "4 CD's for members", which he had to make good on at the last minute by delivering a download of instrumental drivel

- The baby is fine. Mayte and I are fine.

- People are probably STILL waiting for those fucking LotusFlow3r t-shirts.

- I am retiring from live performances

- No videos or singles will be released from "Around the World in a Day"

The only thing I ever really was pissed of about was the lotusflow3r website scam. It was supposed to be something and it ended up being nothing, but my 77 bucks were still something in return for that nothing.

ÂŁ20 says that thought never crossed his mind.

Otherwise thats a nicely sorted list. I'd add that when they were in the UK in 2014 they claimed initially tickets would be ÂŁ6. By the time they made it to Manchester tickets were ÂŁ70.

Quantitywise it WAS. If u check 2013 on the discog it's one of the longest pages, if not the longest.

A complete mess of random songs streamed or for download, but after all he also promised "bootlegs 4 daze".

Prince failed to follow up on many things he said he was going to do.

What about you?

He did some desperate things to get ahead.

What about you?

Sure, he's lied.

What about you?

My point is that Prince apparently would need to be both a saint and a genius over 30 years to appease some of his one-dimensional fans here.

If Prince needed to be a saint, he'd have never had some of us one-dimensional fans here - over 30 years - to appease with his bullshi...genius. bored
