We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

Spike Lee clearly preferred Mj to prince. He could've been substitued. And i was waiting for Toure's damn story about playing b ball with Prince. Starting to think he mentions it in every interview he does. Goes on and on about throwing the ball to prince who didn't see it, making him look bad. And Quest has def heard that story before so no idea why he was acting all surprised

Toure's book: bunch of pseudo intellectual tosh about Gen X, masquerading as a P book. I still feel robbed. Not 2 mention his writing style sucks. hmph! talk to the hand

Yeah I don;t know about any of that, I just don't jibe with his analysis of Prince.

Another thing, this panel desperately needed some queer people on it. I felt pretty eye roll-y once they started talking about Prince and gender.

Also, have none of those scholars ever read Little Richard's autobiography? There's a part where little Richard mentions that he got along in the South cause he was perceived as so effeminate that he wasn't considered a threat to white women. It was one of the most telling / fascinating / fucked up parts of his book... and absolutely relevant to the conversation they were trying to have about Prince's gender performance. I have had random conversations with my musician friends about this, and even people who went off to be scholars. We all read the book.

Speaking of little richard some people said he was sick and not doing to well.

Questlove and Toure are insufferable. I'm still flabbergasted that Questlove would disrespect Prince's family by tweeting "fuck our goodbyes, I guess" after Prince was cremated and a private funeral was held. The entitlement from that dude is off the charts when it comes to Prince.

You can see that the Toure guy is in love. He wanted to be Prince's friend, lover, sister, mother, wife so bad.

He annoys me more than Questlove. He tries to come over more intelligent than he is and acts like he is closer to Prince than he was.

I think that luv4u should lock this thread, because I posted the link hours beforehand.

http://prince.org/msg/7/424704

You know, even though this thread has more views and more responses, and I've no problem whatsoever with this duplicate thread existing, I think she should lock it - because that's the rules apparently.
