I know your right! Since his death the pictures of Prince that I value the most are the ones with his family and the one you can tell were not posed. Most of these are pictures before he got really famous with his big beautiful afro. Most are from the late 70's and he smiles alot more in these pictures. Gosh I really am missing Prince right now.

That is a truly adorable picture of Prince and his mother.

I still will not watch any reality show, though.

She's on the set from the show empire and also she took selfies from with the cast wearing purple. My guess there will be a prince special episode on empire.

I could see that even if they do some of his songs or feature an Prince like artist that wants to sign with Empire. Might be fun.

In the B&W pic of his mom ...Who are the little ones in the door? Is it Prince and Tyka?

That's Miss Mattie's mother. Prince's mom was a twin. Prince mother is the twin on the bottom.

Thanks Babynoz... Wow then his mom and twin look like Prince and Tyka to me...

You're welcome. Here's one from Tyka's Book.....

An accurate, honest, tastefully done documentary would be cool. A Prince approved memoir would be cool. Gawd no to the reality show. A one off episode on Empire perhaps featuring his music could be fun i suppose. His mom was beautiful. I read somewhere recently that either she or her twin (perhaps both?) was a talented high school athlete as well. I wonder why there are so few pics of her?

My parents are about her age and neither family had much money to spend on a camera and film and film development. Pictures were taken at Easter and Christmas and that's about all.

Exactly. People weren't running around with cameras on their phones in 1960.

I am fairly certain that his mom is shown at the 8:47 mark in this video (I love this and played it at least 20 times on New Years). https://youtu.be/Ro8aHvJwgGs

Yes, that is his mother.

I am just glad it wasn't a reality show.

Also, keep in mind that PRince did offer to produce her music and she declined. So, maybe she ain't lying when she stated that he had wished for her to do music at Paisley. Plus the song is about her family and has pictures of him. Its a crap song and I wish she would get on board faster with honoring her brother's music and do documentaries on him but the one she did during the tribute about his philantropy was pretty awesome.

Were you guys jumping down Morris's throat when he did his little tribute song, or Sheila when she wrote her little song or when Mayte wrote her 'love story' and released it close to the date of his death? Some of you most definitely were not.

It's a shitty music video with Tyka in the spotlight. Great f'ing surprise. Exploitation and nothing but.

Tacky beyond belief.

In all honesty, regarding Shelia, after her tribute song, around here it started out nice and complimentary, then it turned into exactly what you're seeing with this with a couple of changes.

Well, that's subjective. But yes, one could argue that they were.

Were they this tacky?

No it's not, worked with two at Red Lobster and one had a crush on me and the other I didn't know about so until I found they were twins I was always lost. One day she's staring in my eyes the next day she's looking at me like WTF is wrong with you and no I didn't kiss you. Lol! I didn't find out until I gave the wrong sister a diamond necklace and all hell broke out between the sisters while I was standing in the back saying to my boys "She's a twin" in shock and all they horny behinds thought about was getting with the other twin lol.

ok thread topic .
Hmmm I'm still warming up to finding out who tyka is especially after having a ex named Teka. Anyways I am glad to see her trying to do something as that's her brother. I don't care what nobody say and I don't care if you all want to attack me but some of y'all have some nerves man. How can you get on her continue to down Prince sister and swear you love him? Better yet, swear you love him more than his family and never had a personal friendship outside of his music with him? You know him as Prince, she knows him as Prince Roger Nelson the brother. So please stop with the she's using her brother death for a come up. That's so rude on so many levels and the sad thing is, the folks spewwing this hatefulness wouldn't like the same treatment if fans bashed them.

People outside of family (Dad, Mom, sisters, and brothers) come and go, but family will always be family and nothing can change that. Dad will always be dad whether he was there or not, Mom will be mom whether she was there or not, and Sisters & Brothers will always be that no matter how much we all fight each other. If my brothers died and some fans came face to face to tell me how to mourn or how they think I'm exploiting his death, please expect it to pop off on sight. That's very rude and nasty to come at people like that. Lets be respectful, some of y'all older than me and acting this way, then talk about the youth (which is my generation) as if we are the rudest nastiest people but when I read comments on here from people that supposed to be our examples I can see why my generation is the way it is.
