, most Gen Zers don't like him or his music. Just look at Reddit and twitter. They could careless about Prince.

This has nothing to do with her. She doesn't have that kind of reach. Their argument is that his music sounds "dated" and when it comes to his personal life it's his "grooming" of Mayte and alleged homophobia that makes them uncomfortable.

Besides who cares, artists like Prince are like Stevie Wonder, it takes a certain public to appreciate their music. I don't see kids being into Stevie Wonder either. It's the kind of music you appreciate as you get older (if you weren't alive when they peaked).

I didn't say that JJ is the reason why Gen Z could careless about Prince. My point is that if she's trying to cancel the guy, there's no need because the majority of people don't care about Prince. Only his fans do. Also I call bullcrap on the belief that Gen z don't care about Prince's music is because of their age. The majority of Gen zers are in their late 20s to 30. They just don't have good taste, too busy listening to artist like KATSEYE "Pinky up"

I could care carelessly, but then my caring would be for naught,
for a care i shall not give for those who give not a proper care!

Ok, I let it pass the first time but the grammar Nazi in me is going crazy now It's not "could careless". It's "couldn't care less". Thank you for your attention in this matter

English is not my first language. And you're using emoticons which is not proper, formal grammar if you're going to judge.

But when I think about it, Jill Jones wants EXISTING Prince fans to cancel him over what happened between them and that just won't happen. EVER.

Can we cancel her for being a racist B.

Is this cancelling fad still a thing??
Kids these days lol.
Next thing you know they'll demand her to kill herself because of words.
Why not just ignore her like adults used to do?

I hate racists, but no need to cancel her (as that feeds her fellow racists)....

I just know she's a horrible person (by virtue of the fact that she's a racist) - That's enough for me.

and if she ever changes her mind and stops being a racist, then I'll be happy for her

yes, please... a woman who tried to pass as white.

And she's a homophobe too

I wish she would just go away, she is so useless to the Prince world.

As many of the women in his orbit are, Jill seems to be utterly deranged in many ways.

How do you go about cancelling someone who 99% of people have never even heard of in the first place?

Not even Prince fans care about her, she only has 200 listeners on Spotify.

Yuck - That paints an interesting picture - to me, at least.

Prince beat on women and treated women abusively - Not to be excused, but the nuance is that he came from a really effed up upbringing with abuse and incest... lucky for him that he slowly worked himself back to something very different.

By all accounts, he was a very respectful kind person by the time he died - good for him. - It doesn't excuse the early behaviour, but there's progression.


Jill Jones was beaten up by Prince - not great and all my sympathies go to her for that - However, judging by this post, she's also a vile racist - yuck!!!

Nuance - all around!

What makes you think she's a racist?
