Lord have mercy! If "they" killed Prince as he said, then why wouldn't "they" kill him since he's the one talking all the crap about them, why would he still be living?

Not to mention the fact that Warners doesn't own Prince's master recordings. Prince got them ALL back and any deal struck with Warners was a temporary licensing allowing them to release them for a while, but they do not OWN his masters NOR would he have struck a deal handing ownership over to Warner Brothers. There is no "they" and Prince, almost certainly, killed himself. Period.

You mean knowingly, willingly, literally killed himself?

Or killed himself because he was using painkillers and he realized he had a problem when it was too late?

Because I don´t believe he´d kill himself. That would go against his religion and his principles.

Although that book excerpt does sound eerie in hindsight.

What book excerpt are you referring to?

Gregory implores you to not just take everything they feed you at face value. Something more is going on. He's hard to take but he does put something on your mind.

There's a difference between healthy skepticism and full on tin foil hat conspiracy theroies and drummed up ideas about assasinations and shit. This is full on "the government did 9/11 and the moon landing was faked" type of stuff.

Also, who is "they"? the government? The media? The Illuminati? Music companies?

What's suspect about it? Sounds just like Prince to me.

Also, I do not believe Prince was killed but I DO find it suspect that he was completely alone at Paisley Park and that there was no will.

Not to stir the pot more but maybe because he doesn't have the same net worth, & many doubt his credibility, where as Prince was good on both... but really, I was thinking the same thing.

He might be grabbing for straws, but I agree that there is more to this than meets the eye. Perhaps not a conspiracy, but we'd be fools to swallow all morsels the media throws at us.

Well put. However, it would serve him well to be more specific. "They" is ambiguous & paranoid, but maybe that's his point, he thinks many people are involved.

The only thing I know for sure is that for a man who risked it all grappling for CONTROL his whole life, it is horribly ironic he died so close to gaining it (from WB), & worse still that his will is missing...

I´m not familiar with Dick Gregory as a comedian or his later work as some sort of political commentator or conspiracy theorist but while watching this video I did not find him very likeable at all. He keeps saying stuff without saying anything, and his constant "Huh, huh? " got on my nerves real quick, just like him expecting the interviewer to know the answers or "secrets" already.

-

And how he stressed that he does not know any entertainers or athletes, and that he´s never met Prince.

I´m actually a bit sad that Prince believed in this guy so much .

Mr.Gregory sounds very rude and impolite, too. What´s with the constant use of the n-word and "motherfucker"? Is that really necessary?

The guy is a complete nutter. Chem trails, conspiracies. It's all nonsense.

I agree with you. While some folks have theories that could pan out, or at least provoke people to think differently (ie Building 7), it seems ol' Dick purposely finds the 180º answer and spouts it just for the sake of doing so. I wonder if he thinks if he keeps saying stupid shit like this, that one time he'll be right, and he can say "I TOLD YOU SO!". I'd still like to know who 'they' are, and why 'they' are getting away with so much shit, and why no one has stopped 'them'.

.

Frankly Alicia Keys is the same way. Honestly - she does that inner "uh huh" chuckle to herself, as if she's in on some hugely wonderful and secret joke that no one else is ever going to be smart enough to understand. But thank Jesus and baby Jesus that she knows. (Look at her at the RnRHOF induction or wherever she was w/ Andre 3000.)

.

One of P's biggest hiccups in life was finding something that appealed to him, and just going balls to the wall with it, yet he usually only did it for a short time. It was all very ADHD in some regard (not saying he had ADHD, obviously he could focus and work diligently without distraction). Whether it was chem trails, or the whole Lovesexy period, or finding "the truth" in the early aughts - it's like little pop up fascinations, then it dies off. I cringe when he was on Tavis' show last time and talked about chem trails. I actually fully agree with Prince on voting, and politics, but his Dick inspired "talks" were embarrassing.

.

Dick has become a caricature of a caricature.

Bingo. There is simply too much wrong and misguided information everywhere, and his rantings just perpetuate this practice. Paranoia and conspiracy theories simply prey on the uninformed.

I do think Dick Gregory is abit insane, however there is something fishy about his death, I just don't and cant believe he didn't have a will, were talking about a guy who was not only talented, but had a extremley high IQ and was a known control freak when it came nearly every aspect of his life..but more strongly to his music and image and there trying to tell us that a man..who often sung about death and the afterlife and often reffering his music as an extension of him-self and his soul and reffering his song's as his "Children".....so there trying to tell us that he left his "Soul" and "Children" to the dog's to fight over, separate and tear apart....

If ya'll do some research on Dick gregory, ya'll will see he's been right on a ton of stuff. For that reason, I just can't dismiss what he has to say. It broke my heart when I read about his random encounter with Michael Jackson before weeks before he died. I'm not gonna spoil it, but it's definitely worth an read.

...it is very possible our current govt is involved.

No it's not.

Well, if he did, it would have been filed. He probably didn't have one because had no heirs and likely didn't think about dying much.
