A museum is a nice idea and love to go one day BUT it's a shrine. A memorial of what was. What if it could be kept alive and turned into a music school for under privaledged kids funded by the estate, other charities and paid studio time. Prince's musicians could do occasional Masterclasses.

It would keep it's princely decor and focus on the musical styles and work ethic that encompassed him.

What better way to honour him than to try to teach real music to the next generations?

I like to think he'd love this.

I think it would give me some peace that his legacy was being used positively rather than extorted.

What do you think?

Oh and the label would be retained and sign artists and its talented students if they make it but the artists own their masters.

Chamon.

All of that, plus keep it as a working recording studio and make all of it part of the 'tour'.

Yep.

I think if the estate was smart they could make this benefit everyone. It's great p.r for his legacy and therefore adds value to the estate.

I think there's a sticky for this.

I don't think anything should ever be recorded in the studio again... It should be preserved so he was the last one to use it to record and anything to be mixed needs to be done elsewhere.. I really hope it becomes a museum for people t visit for centuries.. I believe people will study his work for years to come and it needs to kept just has he left it... It's my dream to visit it.. As it was..
