"To me, for a long time, he wasn’t of the caliber of Michael Jackson and Madonna, but the world thought he was. Of course, I thought it was great, it was wonderful, but it was all surreal. Especially going to the Purple Rain movie premiere and seeing Eddie Murphy and all these stars sitting around and I’m still sitting there going, “Why did they show up? What are they doing here?” My brain really never caught up, and if I’m totally honest, I didn’t catch up until about four years before he passed. That’s when I realized my brother was actually a star." . 🤔🧐🤨🙄😒 I'm sorry but this is such horseshit. It took her four years before he passed to realize that he is a star? Not even being inducted into the RRHOF did it in for her? It must be a sibling thing bc downplaying his success by disguising it as some "unbeknownst to me" syndrome is just fuckin weird. . Anywho I appreciate the sentiment to get everything out, it's a pretty bold statement to make, I highly doubt he wanted ALL of his recordings released. Hopefully a streaming/Prince store could come to fruition if it's lucrative enough. [Edited 4/8/21 22:36pm]

I get that point, to me he was just a familiar face. As far as my siblings I didn't see them the way others saw them. People world day how pretty my sister is it handsome my brother and I would be like, "Oh really?" coz to me it was a face I grew up with and didn't have an opinion cuz they were just there.

That is not the same thing... AT ALL....

Okay, she's your sister, but, say, she's ten years into her career as a pop star, doing her 7th world tour, has millions of fans and sells millions of records.... you're still going, 'she's famous, really? Huh. I dunno. She's just my sister.'

No way.

When did she say that? Was it the same interview where she mentioned the phone call?

Yeah, that's when she "realized" he was on his way out and she thought he knew and this was his way of conveying it. I forget the exact scenario as she described it because it made me want to puke. She recounted it on a tv show as well.

This is the one thing I actually believe. His family and inner circle were likely aware of his health

conerns for several years (we could see something was off too),which is why she reacted to his death in a more muted way.

I think she regrets sharing any of that and has never elaborated further.

The only time she knew he was on the way out was when she got the call that terrible night!She wasnt in his inner circle! anyhow, thats enough from me i think! I will end up getting kicked out!

She "knew" he was on his way out when he sent her that profile of him in the moon -- then sshe went and bought earrings.

I feel sorry for her. Both Prince and she were not raised in a health manner; both eventually ran away from home. They were the only "true" siblings each other had; the rest were much older and younger, and barely around.

Don't forget, too, that she suffered from health and drug issues for most of her brother's career.

What the hell does "she "realized" he was on his way out and she thought he knew and this was his way of conveying it."?

Prince did not know his days were numbered and neither did Tyka. This is the craziest shit I've ever read on the Org.

Is this the kind of place that Ben wants to breed?

I take it you haven't seen the interview. lol.

I've read the Rolling Stone one and seen the video I mentioned before.

Big picture: She wants everything 2 be released. Awesome.

So then what issue are you taking with what I said and what does it have to do with the founder of the website?

I'm not taking issue with anything you've said. No bad vibes from me to you I hope. It's what Tyka said that I find ridiculous.

It's fine. We're good.

• She didn't comprehend his star-power till 4 years prior to his passing?

That's the part I dont understand. I'm not knocking her but if I had a sibling who was a musical powerhouse and happened to be an iconic pop star, I'm not sure if I couldnt help BUT notice that he was those things.

Like when she said she got the phone call about his passing and she just put the phone down when she was told. It's just weird.

[Edited 4/9/21 18:33pm]

What she may have been trying to say in a very coded way... she didn't really listen to his stuff between maybe Purple Rain and 2012, which may have been the time she started working for him, if what's alleged can be believed.

We are 50% homogenous to both our mother and father. But with siblings we can be anywhere from 0-100% similar. So P and Tyka could be very different genetically, which may explain a lot.

Like how can you go through the 80s not digging every note your genius brother did?

Nope. No offense.
