Before you guys engage in your nanny-nanny-poo-poo victory lap. Let's not pretend that the opposition and outcry to the tribute began with that photo because it most certainly didn't.

The debate about the "deal with it" photo actually didn't begin until 21 pages into this thread and the elevator statement did not originate on the org. It was said to be an elevator on instagram and in several online articles so stop acting like the story was invented on this site. I personally told Pokeno that if he knew differently then he should say so instead of race baiting and he did that....point taken.

"Deal with it" still doesn't sit well with me regardless.

Neither does the graveyard imagery, Prince symbol burning, poor vocal performance, exclusion of Prince's band members, insentive use of things associated with Prince such as the cane as well as many other points that were discussed on this thread well before the instagram pic surfaced.

People here as well as many people outside of the org, including some from the Prince camp itself don't like this so called tribute so stop pretending it's some "mob" behavior exclusive to this site because that is a lie too.

But no, start in the middle of the story instead of the beginning so you can gloat....org business as usual.


FTR I didn't see your response, you know I'm not one to ignore anybody's messages directed at me. Not sure where you got the racebaiting from, as I've always stood against that exact sort of thing. There are people here who mocked the tribute for being "too white" before it even happened, my calling them out on that is not racebaiting (if that's to what you were referring).

I'd love to see an org where race wasn't a constant topic, at least in this main section. Prince spent his entire career bringing people of all races together, he couldn't have been happy seeing his longtime friend bashed so viciously for simply paying her respects to him in the way she saw fit.

I think that you overlooked my reply on purpose but whatever.

I was referring to this comment you made to Smookie on Pg 20 of this thread....


"The hating is mostly unwarranted. Just look at what was posted here .... bitching because Madonna is white ... bitching because she hasn't been on the charts in a while and is therefore not "relevant" .... bitching because she didn't "feel the loss" as deeply as others.

Well, last time I checked Stevie and Questlove are black and a huge portion of Prince's fanbase is white.

If recent hits are what make a singer "relevant", does that make Stevie "irrelevant"?

And Madonna was tearing up and shaking, she clearly was affected by his passing.

But hey, let's keep bashing. Nothing better to do, right?"



You didn't quote whatever comment you were talking about so there's no way to know who your comment was in response to? Who on the org said that Madonna was too white? I didn't see any race references until you brought it up so if you saw such a comment then you should have quoted it.

None of that changes the fact than the issues with Madonna's tribute did not begin with and were not limited to one picture. For that matter, the criticism wasnt limited to this site either.



Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise.

See that's the exact same absence of logic that I was talking about before ... why would I bring up your racebaiting accusation now, if I intentionally didn't want to respond to it? When have I ever done the Hit N' Run thing? Sure sometimes it takes me a looooong while to respond, but inevitably I always do respond.

To answer your question, Reply #8 from the other Billboard thread: I know that Roger Friedman is a crusty old gossip dude, but I found his column today rather amusing

http://www.showbiz411.com/2016/05/22/fail-billboard-awards-choose-madonna-instead-of-real-prince-artists-for-tv-tribute my fav quote wink

"So Prince will get a very white tribute from someone who had nothing to do with him. It’s like having Celine Dion salute James Brown."

Followed by Reply #20: Billboard made it racial when they did not ask one single black person to be in the tribute

Followed by Reply #31: Well Stevie and Questlove were added at the last minute because they have been pushing Maddonna all week. So originally this was a whitewash.

Like I said, not caring for the tribute is one thing ... falsely accusing Madonna of mocking Prince's death is something else. I won't even go into all the other B.S. such as complaining about the pictures of Prince that were used, complaining about the cross, complaining about the song selection, complaining about the length of the tribute, etc.

Find me evidence of another singer who was pushing to do the tribute, I'd be happy to see it.

That wasn't so hard was it? Like I said, in order to clear up confusion you should have quoted who you were responding to in the first place instead of making a blanket statement about it, which is what you did.

Furthermore, and I reiterate, the criticism is not and was not exclusively coming from the org, so stop trying to pretend otherwise. The ONLY thing you have shown is the room the photo was taken in. If people don't like her tribute there is nothing you can do about that. Some of Prince's former associates did not care for that "bs" as you put it, either.

Finally, no other name was mentioned in this tribute until after the change.org petition was circulated. Questlove playing Captain Sav-a-ho and poor Stevie being dragged out as damage control was transparent as hell IMO. lol

Yes, it WAS hard!! I had to go through 777 posts in this thread and then 16 pages of posts in the other thread, then I had to copy and paste from the other thread to this one. whew I shouldn't have to prove everything I say, I don't make stuff up ... you know that. If I'm pressed for time I'll post without quoting, nothing wrong with that.

I never said the criticism was exclusive to the org, but having it also come from outside the org doesn't justify it. The elevator accusation went on outside the org, sadly some people here believed it because of that reason.

No there is nothing I can do about people trashing the tribute ... EXCEPT to voice my own opinion of others trashing someone for the way they paid their respects. So we both agree, people have a right to dislike the tribute and others have a right to dislike the criticism of the tribute. Quest said it best, "EVERYBODY wants and deserves a chance to say goodbye in their own way."

Hey if it makes you feel better to think that Quest and Stevie were invited only because of the petition, then I'm happy for ya. Until either of them comes out and says it was planned long before, there's no way for me to prove otherwise ... so enjoy! wink

Like I said, next time quote those comments in the first place so you won't have to go through that again.

"Everybody" who does a tribute in their own way is subject to criticism if said tribute sucks.

So enjoy Captain Sav-a-ho! lol

Who cares? She knew what she was doing with those photos. Let's talk about that thing she's desperately hoping we don't discuss. Like anyone in showbiz, she's only as good as her last gig and it sucked. Oh and her pretentious accent is pitiful.

And no matter the FACTS/PROOF you still believe it was some shady motive

I didn't ever believe it was an elevator.
I believe she staged the photo w/symbolism to be controversial, and spiteful. Her own words accompanying the photos tell us what's in her heart.

You're clearly concerned with how she is perceived. Please let her know at least one person believes she is human garbage after this stunt.

Yes you do believe it. Staged a photo with symolism. What are the props for this alleged staged photo? an alleged elevator (because Prince died in elevator) a bag with dealer on it that she has been carrying since early 2015 and has attached the meaning to her Rebel Heart tour and her being a mother. The alleged doves on the walls of the alleged elevator. What else are the symbolisms?

You said

1. The thing about Madonna trolling Prince fans with those photos - she's punching down.
Real brave.

2. We're watching some spiteful stuff. I get the feeling Madonna owns the BBMA's.

3.
People hate Madonna. Deal with it.
Her tribute can't come soon enough.
God knows her career was over decades ago.

4. There it is. There can be no doubt why she did Prince's tribute.
For herself.
Her tribute can't come soon enough.

3 & 4 is very low, it is alleged that you are hinting to a Tribute after she is dead. Most people don't get tributes out of the blue.

5. Your reply #619 to the alleged elevator: She is repugnant to the core.

* If this was Rome, "MadgeSuccubus", would have been properly stoned for such a blasphemous act.

* The infamous purse.... "Dealer"... The "succubus'" feeble attempt at ambiguity. Instaneously , the "succubus" wields the power and wisdom of a mekubbal.

* For those who equate an opinion with words such as :hate/haters...How absolute and certain is that?

OF4S? Have I offended you? you say "give it a rest".... I can understand it may be the sabbath for some, but that pompous performance will get no rest from me. You don't want me to express myself in the same way "madgesuccubus" felt it was her right to express herself? Do you think she is defiled by my post? This is how it starts, Madge.

I do hope she reads the innumerable amount of negative comments coming in from all over the world. I want her to read them until her eyeballs no longer point forward. After all, most of us who sat thru/watched that performance bare the scars of it. Are you kidding me? Would you do Purple Rain like that?

To set the record straight, You stated that no triubte will help us move on. What sort of powers do you possess to know such things? How is it you know that we are "setting ourselves up"? I'm not sure about you ,but I am not in limbo about his death, nor am I seeking closure about his passing. He is gone, his music lives.

Some of us dont care about any one singular component of that reprehensible thing she called a tribute. It was the compunding factors that caused the uproar.

I for one can tell you everythig starts with that trainwrecked vocal rendition of Purple Rain. Thats what caused me to almost go into a diabetic shock. The first song made me edgy , but the song we always associate with greatness and his legend ,is the thing that put me over the edge. The bag , the elevator , and the stupid social media responses are all the things she used to needle his fans that were in an uproar. What was her point?

I'm saying give it a rest (not about the actual tribute think what you want about it, I don't care for them) but stop with the vile comments about the Elevator she took that photo in, because there was no elevator, it was a dinning room Pokeno4Money posted the image. You all got so worked up that you all just went on a cyberlynch mob mode. The bag is nothing, we've already pointed out when where and what that is from early 2015
She can make a social media response just like we all can. "I'm not your bitch don't hang your shit on me' was a perfect reply to the nasty comments.

Yes those are my words and I stand by my opinion.
She is repugnant human garbage. I hope she slips on a banana.
I believe she staged the photo to appear as if in an elevator.
I believe she knew that handbag would drive people nuts.
It's not just people in this forum that understood the look she was going for, or the spirit on display. It's been reported elsewhere.

You just choose to be blinded.


Please tell me what swanky elevators you all have been riding that look like that??

People never even stepped back to think for themselves. Someone on social media go this cyber lynch mob rolling and a bunch of Org fans fell right in with it.

It never looked like an elevator. Is that what the elevators at Paisley Park look like?

99% of elevators that 99% of us ride have glass/mirrored walls, hand rails

You saw doves... those are not doves. -fact
You saw an elevator... it is a corner of a ball room. -fact

you refuse to believe it was anything other that a stage jib at prince and his fans.

The picture was taken at the Billboards after gathering...
The reply was attached to the photo. When was she supposed to take the selfie and reply. After she consulted with a bunch of vile hateful people? Her reply was perfect for you all, you got what your minds conspiracy's asked for.

And you still wish physical harm and death on her, that is clear. Look in the mirror, look in the mirror.

It's been reported elsewhere. https://uk.news.yahoo.com...03464.html Some people hate Madonna. Deal with it. . [Edited 5/28/16 17:34pm]


You just choose to be blinded.



Please tell me what swanky elevators you all have been riding that look like that??


People never even stepped back to think for themselves. Someone on social media go this cyber lynch mob rolling and a bunch of Org fans fell right in with it.



It never looked like an elevator. Is that what the elevators at Paisley Park look like?

99% of elevators that 99% of us ride have glass/mirrored walls, hand rails


You saw doves... those are not doves. -fact
You saw an elevator... it is a corner of a ball room. -fact


you refuse to believe it was anything other that a stage jib at prince and his fans.



The picture was taken at the Billboards after gathering...
The reply was attached to the photo. When was she supposed to take the selfie and reply. After she consulted with a bunch of vile hateful people? Her reply was perfect for you all, you got what your minds conspiracy's asked for.



And you still wish physical harm and death on her, that is clear. Look in the mirror, look in the mirror.





Challenge your own assumptions.
Didn't notice any doves - fact.
I've been in a couple nice elevators. They exist. - Fact.
You sound just as obsessive and judgmental as the people you're responding to.

so what are all the symbolisms you responded to

That did not look like any elevator. Some troll said jump and you all started on the war path.
Some old 20s elevators. But that did not look like an elevator, even the moldings were off.

I wished death on no one

Challenge your own assumptions - Some of us actually own plenty of Madonna's music, follow her career (until recently). - FACT.

At MAWI.co.uk - these luxury handbags are labeled as part of the "Criminal" series. - FACT.

Some of us were already familiar w/the designer's line and their 'Criminal" marketing. Criminal + Dealer = drugs. - FACT.

Sure, Madonna can tell us all what it means to her - use her status as a mother and hide behind her kids. But she's out of touch, once again.

The bag's meaning is not about her and her cultural misappropriation, it's about what it means to the original artist.

But hey, she's helping move some units - they aren't just CDs/Albums anymore.

What do you see when you look at the other bags in Mawi designer's "Criminal" series, like the one w/the word "Thief"?

Just a guess - someone who steals the world's collective hearts, like Madge!

Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it flow...

As you chose 2 C an elevator you choose to see evil intensions in the word dealer.

DEAL with it, I DEAL with life as it comes, when things get tough I roll with the punches and DEAL with it ie I Am A Dealer.

Rebel Heart

There was not Elevator

And U should not have wished death on her. Look into the mirror of your soul. Nothing you are doing now is honoring Prince's memory. And Prince would not be on your side with what you are doing. It's not his way.

I the 70s and 80s when people started saying DOPE. That is DOPE, knowing that dope was illegal drugs, did they have dark intentions? were they talking about something illegal?

Was she promoting the entire line, or just the "Dealer" one?

Either way, there's no correlation with Prince ... he was allegedly using prescription pills from pharmacies, not illegal pills from a drug dealer.

Things have been lame since Prince passed away. I did not expect much from this performance. That being said, I don't think it was that bad. It made me miss him even more. A tribute concert by other artists is not exactly what we need in the first place. Madonna's heart and Stevie's heart were in the right place. That's all that really counts. Besides, half the people watching have no idea who he is or was.

Identity

She's more thin-skinned than long assumed. Days after the tribute, she's still reacting to that BET tweet, and looking rather childish over the issue. To wit:

The Billboard tribute could have been better and I did expect better. I will say though that I do think Madonna and Stevie did just fine and I'm not going to diss the performance.

That said, I really do hope that out of all these other tributes that are coming up, at least one of them will bring it home. And I hope it's streamed or televised too for those who can't attend.

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

I saw a clip of Bruno Mars doing TMBGITW the other day. It wasn't bad. D'Angelo wasn't bad either on Jimmy Fallon. Neither one of them have 1/4 the talent of Prince though. I think a great tribute could be made if a ton of people came together like they did after 9/11 or Hurricane Katrina. But I don't think anyone will 'bring it home'. Especially not BET.

I expect one of the best, if not THE best, to be the Rock Hall induction closing tribute. George Harrison's was spectacular, thanks in large part to Prince. It would be only fitting to have the customary closing all-star jam be the tribute for Prince.
