--- I am glad he posted this so people can stop saying Prince did' know what he was doing. Whatever he was doing it suited his purpose and he probaly knew he could only count himself. I guess Londell is seeing that out now.

Gotta say I'm not crazy about these cryptic tweets from Londell. He knows that Prince fans read his twitter feed. Just stop.

yeahthat Some of these people seem to have embraced Prince's penchant for cryptic communication -- not the best idea. If you have something important to share with fans etc, say it clearly; otherwise address it privately.

They can't "Say it all" ...otherwise they'd say "shut the f up!" to Prince's fans.
I've come here for over 17 years and I still can't believe how inept SOME of the so-called fans can be.
Like he said, do your homework before you speak. That goes for anybody. I don't write about things I know nothing about, or talk about rumors and gossip.

Laura Did or Didn't? Know what he was doing?

What if he was doing what he wanted to do? What if his actions suited his purpose. Even the Tidal thing if he was getting a dollar a stream ( I am not saying his was getting that amount) and other people are getting pennies what is wrong with that? At the end of the day it was his business and his music. I never understood why people could not respect that.

He also was sitting on about 50 million dollars in real estate so I would not say he was a total dummy with his money. Once again he did what suited his purpose.

No estate planning.

Maybe exactly what he wanted. Doesn't make it smart though.

-- You don't know if there was no estate planning. He could have put funds in a trust or set up his LLC to avoid probate. Neither of these actions have to go thru a court so we are never going to know the full story. Also if he had a will it could be contested which has happened in Ray Charles and James Brown estate. His estate appears to be moving along quickly with the estate being able to monetize itself.
Things are not as bad as they could be.

Yes, contesting a will is not easy but people do it and usually it is a total failure while the estate stays tied up in court and millions are lost to attorneys. Do you know James Brown had a video will and his rotten kids still contested it? Prince had one real siblings and many half some of which sued him before and acted like an asshole when his dad died.

I gave up trying to understand the cryptic stuff. I just stare blankly at it. Blink a couple of times and move on. When you all figure it out let me know. Please. Thanks.

inept in what way? expecting clear communication or silence unitl u can speak clearly and completely on a matter is hardly a mark of ineptitude. otherwise it's no different from saying "i know something u don't know.." like this is grade school. NONE of them are obligated to tell us anything- but if they're going to why not do it clearly and completly!?!

cryptic BS = drama queening

Londell did say on Twitter today that he's not going to allow Prince's music to be messed with (i.e. no remixes). Hopefully he's serious and has the power to stop anyone else from messing with it.

Woo....that's a good one! Personally, I don't know how Prince did it. I don't know how he juggled so much and dealt with so many people in his career & personal life. He was really something -- he seemed to manage his stress very well -- you never saw him get mad.
