Prince's phone call with Will Smith

It's none of my business what they talked about, I just hope Will Smith was forthcoming to investigators if they contacted him about it. Don't want any potential clues overlooked.

Also, I always wondered if Prince ever had an issue with the term "Fresh Prince". To me, it implied the real Prince was 'stale'. I guess the fact that they were friends, it wasn't an issue...or was at least forgiven..lol.

Truly I believe that Will Smiths call time can shed some light on the events and how they happened. I hope that he has been talked to already and was truthful about things.

The time line is what I'm most interested in. I have no idea what type of "friendship" they had, if they had one at all. Does anyone know more about it? But again....I want to know what time the call took place.

Welcome to "the org", Mumio…they can have you, but I'll have your love in the end nod

Based on nothing more than a dislike of the Smiths in general I'd be interested to find out if this alleged call actually did take place, or whether Will was just using it as a way to insert himself into the headlines of that day.

I don't dislike the Smiths, but I also doubt that this call took place, for some reason...

Prince was a big believer in Willow Smith's career. He spoke about her in the Ebony interview.

The feds or whoever leads the investigation can pull up the phone records right?, to see the exact times the call with Smith happened that night. Somewhere between the time he hang up the phone and the next morning when Prince was finally found it must have happened. sad

Nah, and my original post was in no way insinuating anything whatsoever with Will Smith. Hopefully it didn't come across that way. It was really just a question of: did Prince revealed any info/feelings/concerns that night to Will. If so, my hope was that Will conveyed that to the police. Just to help them sort out not only what killed Prince, which they already idenified, but how was Prince's state of mind that evening, etc. In other words, was Prince talking to Will about normal chit-chat stuff, or was he leaning on Will's shoulder that night for support. Again, not for me to know, but rather simply hoping that all parties are helping the investigation. smile

I'm not a Will Smith fan by a long shot, but why do people here persist in proclaiming who was or was not a friend to Prince?

admit it; when you first heard the Prince playlist "Always" on Tidal, you liked "9", didn't know it was Willow, and hated yourselves for a minute or two afterwards.

Singing a song about flipping one's hair and popping up at snobby fashion shows does not really signal a career.

I doubt that Will Smith talked to Prince on that fateful night. Prince was last seen in public at about 7:30pm that night. Prince apparently passed away between the hours of 9pm to 11pm that night. Prince was probably more concerned with getting a visit from the pain doctor rather than talking with an overrated ex-rapper with 2 butt ugly kids and a wife who will not shut the fuck up. Prince did not talk to Will Smith. Will Smith just wanted some attention and a bit of the spotlight during a bad zituation. Case Closed.

Clearly I was a bit mean in my previous post but at least I was honest.

Maybe i was a bit harsh but i only said what everyone else was probably thinking. Jada will speak out against a stupid award ceremony but wont make any statements about all these black babies being murdered in this country. If you have a platform like Jada has and you choose to talk about a dumb statue instead of 12 year old kids getting murdered in the street and the fact that these kids are getting zero justice, you deserve no respect. If you had a friend like tupac and you were so close to him, something about his rebellion would have rubbed off on you and you would be awoke and speaking out on black issues. Hollywood has never really given any minorities their props and it is very rare that blacks in general are portrayed positively in film so why speak out about that? Hollywood has been racist since "birth of a nation" and no amount of ranting in a video is going to change it anytime soon. If Jada wanted to talk about issues that are actually important to black people, then do it! Voice your anger about Tamir Rice and Mike Brown and Eric Garner and Trayvon Martin and Reneisha Mcbride and whoever else has been murdered cause they were born black! Voice your anger about how those people will never get any justice cause their murderers are still walking the streets. Voice your anger about the fact that black folks are killing up each other in chicago over dumb shit. Voice your anger over the riots that happened in baltimore and ferguson. Voice your anger about the fact that George Zimmerman gloats about killing a 16 year old baby and that this asshole actually tried to sell the gun that he killed him with. No remorse in his heart for murdering that child like a dog in the street. Those are the issues that black people are dealing with. We do not care about some dumb fucking ceremony in a town that fights like hell to not acknowledge minorities or greenlit our films. Nobody is going to symphatize with Jada about not having a trophy when there are tons of other issues in the black community to be angry about.

As for the comment about the kids, i was wrong. Yes the kids are butt ugly but nobody is supposed to admit that in public so i am going to keep that one to myself. I am sorry for admitting the truth. Its just that those kids make truly weird people look normal. The boy is wearing kilts and wants to cut his penis off. The boy likes wearing dresses. Now there is nothing wrong with gay people or anyone in the lgbt community but Jaden's fashion sense is really terrible. I have seen better dresses in the $3 bin at the thrift store. If you are rich and you are obsessed with fashion, hire a stylist to guide you with that. Now as for the films, no just no! I am sure that Jaden has some talent but it is not within this realm of existence and it will not be without years of acting classes and vodka. If your films keep flopping and you keep winning razzies, retire with dignity. The acting bug is not hereditary for some people and I am sure that Jaden is a good boy but no more movies please. Some of us are still wondering who greenlit the piece of shit that was "pursuit of happyness" but i digress. I know I am harsh but somebody has to be.

As for the girl. nothing much to say there. "Whip My Hair" was never going to win any grammys and it was a very blah song. I try my best to avoid newer pop music as it does nada for me. Music is supposed to have a strong message in it and there is nothing empowering or uplifting about flipping one's hair.

I do not hate anyone. I juat do not really care for the smith family. Will Smith is extremely overrated and people act like he is the only black actor in hollywood. Newsflash, there are tons of black actors in hollywood and almost all of them can turn in a better performance than big willy. If Will is lying about talking to Prince on that fateful night, he is an asshole who really needs to be ashamed of himself. Dont use a man's death to prop yourself up and get attention from the media cause that is not cool.

Its all very mysterious.

-

Same goes for L.A. Reid, who I really like. Read his book and it was great. But there is certainly a theme of, well, I won't say 'lying'. Maybe selective story telling is a fairer way to put it.

-

Being nosey I would like it to be known whether or not there is evidence that a call took place between Will and P that night. You would think its crucial to the investigation. Maybe they did investigate it. But now I would like it to be make public knowledge. Wishful thinking.

-

Regardless of what you think, I am fair. You just may not agree with how I weigh things up. typing

Well so far what evidence is there that Will Smith didnt talk to Prince other than a few people here saying they have a feeling that he didnt.

Having a feeling about something is hardly any kinda scientific based evidence at all.

Untill proven otherwise I see no reason to believe these people are right just because "they had a feeling".

And as for the stuff about the Smith's kids, thats truly horrible.


I dont know if you are like a 15 yo kid or something, but what you said just makes you sound bitter and hatefull, the fact that you felt the need to say that just at the mention of the Smiths.

Even if someones kids were ugly , I dont think these kids are, but what purpose does it serve in calling them ugly in a public forum anyways.
