PrintableGood Interview. It should be clear to everyone now that remastered Albums are not on the radar whatsoever. It's interesting to even hear his memories of "America", or "I Hate U". Interesting that he would admit he blows his. own mind  | |

... That's one of the reasons I never bothered responding to that thread about new remasters after hitnrun etc... I knew it was never gonna happen | |

What's wrong with him talking about religion? It gives you an insight to how he's thinking and that's what we fans want, right? We want to know more about our favourite artist. Which does NOT mean we have to agree with everything he says. | |

Guys... He just said people read too much into everything and go and read that answer in the most limited and literal way. The answer to the question is "Hopefully, yeah." This means "yes", he hopes so.
He mentions a greatest hits, this would obviously be just starters if he had his way.
EBONY: Will you be remastering the catalog? Prince: Hopefully, yeah. A new Greatest Hits. Because I never had anything to do with [The Hits/The B-Sides]. But put great liner notes in it to explain what record came from what and why. Explain the backstory of it. Somebody said “Purple Rain” was inspired by Bob Seger! I said, call him in. “Sit down, man. Y’all got to have everything, huh? Bob Seger?! You gon’ put that in the ether? OK.” [laughter]

... Yes... can anyone elaborate more why Prince is obvious so bitter about Susan Rodgers comments?
Did she leave Paisley on a mutual relationship? Prince seems very bitter towards Susan... | |

Interesting interview. I find myself disagreeing with pretty much everything he says, particularly when he talks about religion (I wish the journalist had gone a bit further and asked him what he thinks about people who do not believe in any kind of God, if he thinks atheists can be good people too, although I fear I would not have liked the answer). It is cool to hear what he says about old songs and I really wished he wrote about them more often, although again, I'm not sure I'd believe a lot of what he'd say. And he's now mentioned a few times how they gave the Beatles a lot more money for their catalogue than they gave him, when he's made more albums. A different person would probably realise that if he had not gone out of his way to pretty much obliterate most of his influence from popular culture his catalogue would make a lot more money. But it's Prince, God is always in his side and therefore he's always right. Still, I enjoyed reading that interview, and I have now been listening to Phase 2 on repeat for ten days, so I won't comoplaim too much... | |

He feels they belong to him and, as long as they're in the vault, to no one else. I don't know if he's bitter, maybe it's more like, "Hey, Ms Rodgers, you were just an employee, I know what to do.."

I miss the pre-Internet days when I didn't know Prince was such a petty douchebag with no humility. |

did Susannah ever actually *say* they were about her? or did others say that? I mean, we know the verses in crystal ball were about her. just because you're over it doesn't mean it didnt happen. | |

EBONY: Did you hear the last album by The Time, Condensate? Prince: No. You know, it was Morris playing drums and me on the bass. That’s how we would make the basic track. Naked. Just like that, and nobody would know. And then when you put the keys on it and the guitar, then that’s what The Time was. And it was perfect. Going through it now, I can hear all that stuff. Like “The Walk.” I hadn’t heard “The Walk” in ages. It’s like you can’t believe that you did it. I don’t even know how it’s possible. I don’t. I do but I don’t. That can never be duplicated again. It was a time period. His son [Derran Day] sings now, and look just like he did. So it should be like Steph and Dell Curry. Let’s do this. The Time can still be alive, he just needs to do it. I’m gonna see him in a minute anyway to work together. Musicians I’m cool with. But other folks standing around talking about they gon’ take out the vault? Boy…
Is this Prince saying he has plans to work with Morris (or his son?) on a new Time project? |

I've been enjoying some of prince recent music after years of really bad music, but this interview leaves me feeling like p is a real douchebag. All his religious Bs and he wines about someone selling his coat for a few bucks. It's mine mine mine says millionare donald prince over and over. Pride and gluttony are deadly sins, which means if you helieve the religious garbage coming out of your own mouth, u should believe god will strike you dead for being an egotistical petty glutton who always wants more than everyone else. No prince you do not have faith, your attitude proves it. Maybe like trump who believes republicans are stupid enough to believe all his lies, p thinks cristians are dumb enough to buy his music if he pretends to be religious. There is absolutely nothing cristian about a song like 2Y2D, which is creepy with a pediphilia slant aa well as heavy coersion via the dare theme. Prince has always played with rape themes, at this age lyrics like 2y2d and lolita are super creepy, especially when the premise is that the young girl says NO and then is mocked and taunted as tho she is just being a chicken because she is young, and not actually saying no because prince is old and gross and creepy and she doesnt WANT to fuck prince. Prince is delusional to think no one is his friend because he is SOOOO great. Just look at the way p talks about his old friends he now seems to be bitter about. Damn if some friend helped me make millions they can have the damn coat. | |
