Some awesome quotes from his letter to Prince:

"But Prince, I have to tell you…you made it hard to be a fan. We would wait for new music, and sometime it took too long. And then, we DID get it, we didn’t understand it. “hey, this doesn’t sound like; *previous album*…” sometimes it took me a year or two to start liking the new stuff. But now I see, that was a sign of genius!! You created something and it took ME time to appreciate it. A mark that you, sir were indeed ahead of your time!!! Genius."

Here's another quote:

"I would date girls but before we did she would have to know who you were and be able to stomach listening to your music all the time. Needless to say, you left me single and hanging with my buds on many weekends!"

Another quote:

"When my son was born, I remember driving home from the hospital listening to your music as loud as it could go, and feeling on top of the world. When my dad died, you were there, wrapping your music around me, hugging me, comforting me thru the darkest times. Assuring me that no matter what, things will get better. And they did, of course. You left me hopeful. When I got married, you were there…in my mind, singing and serenading me and my new bride, in a private concert only we could hear."
