Did Prince fire these dudes? Did P fire Tony M.,Levi S. or Miko W.? I heard that they all left on bad terms...does anybody know what really went down? -------------------------------------------------

The trump card is finding out the truth.
Prince must have one hell of a clause in his contracts. | |

It seems the details of what went down between Prince and those that used to work for him, in any capacity, will never ever be found out.
Maybe ex-associates are forced to undergo some sort of debriefing or hypnotism before he lets them go, and it either erases their memory of him and their association with him, or they are given the suggestion that if they talk in detail about him, they will suffer extreme pain or death. (maybe this technique is used for ex lovers,too...) | |

Miko left over personal and musical differences that I read about on his web site a few years back. He did give Prince credit for teaching him a great deal about guitar playing.
Levi and Tony left/fired because they both sued Prince over song writing credits they claim they never received or got paid for. __________________________________________________

Perhaps when P worked under Cavallo,Ruffalo,and Fargnoli he gained secret connections to the mob... -------------------------------------------------

believe it or not, i talked to rosie gaines a while back( i have her phone number and no i won't give it out) and she said that tony m. got into drugs and was selling them back in 98, and that most of the npg were complete assholes to her, and that mayte and D&P were just about the only ones nice to her.. damon d was also said to have gotten into drugs, but hey when u rap as horrible as tony and dance as horrible as damon, and your best name is gameboyz, drugs probably ain't that far from your future.. | |

Doesn't Prince make all employees sign a thick confidentiality agreement? There must be some pretty strong language in it--remember when Mayte's ex-assistants leaked all that info about their baby to that gossip magazine? I belive they were sued on the spot big time for breaking the agreement. The agreement must say something about not talking EVER. | |

Complete assholes to her? Why? I don't know about drugs but Rosie has always said that she left the NPG because some members were cruel to her. I think she absolved Michael B only from any guilt. | |

can't speak for the cited people, but I remember reading a europeen article where french singer Ophelie winter stated about her working with prince in the mid 90's that she was paid $50 000 as part of a confidentiality contract..
Interestingly enough she still told that to a newspaper.. huh huh | |

Yes he does. I remember reading that in a biography on Prince. Whisper a question, with my body I'll scream a reply | |

She's a French model/singer/actress.
I don't know the specifics about her affiliation with Prince. Here's her website. It's in French so I didn't look around it much: http://www.ophelie-winter...ccueil.htm | |

rosie was always cool when u talk to her, she doesn't think she is better than us regular people,
she would probably know about previous npg members as even if they were jerks, they were probably on her coatails beggin for a crumb when P fired them. the only tight flow tony m had was in the flow, other than that he and tc ellis sucked major ass, damon d, well i think the d stands for don't. cos he shouldn't have and he did, so now the d stands for drugs, dope, dumbass, dip shit | |

A little off subject, but is it true that he fired all the band members that werenot or didnot want to get involved with the JWs? Someone said that Fred quit because he was tired of all the JW stuff, is this true? | |
