"Looking ahead.....I see Rain in the forecast" (followed by umbrella/Purple Heart/crown etc. Emojis)

Don't know how I feel about her potentially singing purple rain

I heard she has composed her own song as a tribute to Prince. I don't think she is singing one of his songs.... (but let's hope she doesn't pick up the guitar and try to play it).

Here it is: https://youtu.be/15kWlTrpt5k

I guess they were friends and she was a contemporary but she wasn't a peer in any way other than the superficial fame game.

Meh.

She has a song called "Rain" too.

If she does I will never listen to it again

A Mix of "God" and "Like a prayer" with recording of his rare guitar jam" would be cool.

Then go into Baltimore

social justice and stop the killing theme !

She can't play anywhere as good as prince

but she can play.

she somehow came up with some good stuff in the like a prayer era and before, I think that would have more to do with her ability to manipulate writers, producers etc.., than any talent on her part. she used sex to do everything pretty much and she was intelligent, no doubt, but talented? No, just no.

Not sure where you got that she's singing "Purple Rain" in that, but you're diggin'...a bit too deep.

.

That pic of her is also from the early 80s, not current. It could be anything, but she's probably just making reference to the tribute preparations. Let's not overthink it.

So is she gonna sing? I thought she was gonna talk about him and their would be some video tribute? Well whatever it is I hope she slays in the outfit department, maybe something Vanity 6 related

She should do a compilation of raunchy Prince songs in his memory. "Head", "Sister", "Jack U Off", and then "Automatic" as the finale where she is then tied to a bed and whipped by men significantly younger than her.

I can't stand her.

Don't tell me she's going to tackle "Purple Rain". Prince has a deep catalog, yet everyone covers that one song ad nauseam.

I'm scared it will be bad. I'll probably record it, check the temperature here, then decide whether it's worth watching or not.

I hope she makes it about him, not about herself.

I'm sure whatever she does, it's going to be terrible.

Haha I was hoping for that as well.

that wasn't a very good song though. Not that i care, i really ain't a fan of Madonna.

Much too obscure for a bigger audience.

I quite like that song but I think it would fly above people´s heads.

Most folks probably don´t even know it´s a Prince song.

Consider yourself pre-surprised.

I just saw the BET Lifetime Acheivemenf Award from 2010 for the first time, and I wish they would just have Madonna introduce a replay of that to be honest. Those women brought it and did him proud. I'm so glad that he got to experience that kind of tribute himself.

Having Madonna do this is the industry whitewashing of Prince to cash in one last time on the ratings that he generated at the unworthy TV awards shows. That BET tribute was his people honoring him the way it should be
