All you people praising Prince for telling The Truth haven't got a clue.

This is almost as ridiculous as those Star Wars-guys on Times Square in New York who claim Mozart, Beethoven and Shakespeare were actually black.

Don't get me wrong, Europe sucks, I have no urge to defend it. But I am European (Dutch) and I live here and have more firsthand knowledge of European history. This lyric is just historical bullshit and bad poetry on top of that. The Greeks came from Egypt, so they were Africans, so they were black? Give me a break. What about the Romans? Africans too? And the Celts, Vikings, Germanic peoples were presumably living in cages before those Africans brought them culture? My gawd...

I've had it with Prince. He's half-white/European himself, so what a self-righteous hypocrite... What makes it worse is that he is actually sucking up to the North African Arabs, who make the same kind of arguments in their Jihad against the west.

Consider me an ex-fan.



Prince is not half white/European. He is 100% African American, straight no cut, no chaser.
They say money don't buy you luv. But it'll help w/ the search.

i read it in her book called, um 'book' published in 97.It's an interesting read indeed.
More interesting and truthful than anything Prince has recently put to paper anyway.

Whoopi woot!

Prince has earned the right and freedom to write whatever the hell he likes with his music. Do you want him to retread the same ground over and over for the rest of his artistic life?

Whatever youre opinion on the factual content of the lyrics, you cant deny their effect. Its engaged people of different ethinicities and backgrounds in debate, exposing them to things that they may not have heard before.

I personally believe that Prince only ever intends to promote increased understanding, tolerance and harmony among people(s).

As for Blackcat talking about accepting blames and taking credit, thats bullshit. I accept no blames nor take any credit. Its history, how you choose to interpret it will depend on the point of view you WANT to take. If you go back far enough we all originate from Africa anyway so universally speaking Princes words have no bearing on race issues today.

Race problems are born out of ignorance and lack of education, not out of inherent divisions between races. To expect people today to accept responsibility for history is ludicrous. We can only learn from what went on in the past, thats it...nuff said.

I agree..its not. In fact, much of it is documented in that part of world history that gets edited out with the euro centric interpretation. Fact of the matter is that most people get their feather ruffled when the ugly truth of race in history is brought to light. What is refreshing about Prince now is that in his older enlightened stage, he is obviously studying and becoming versed on more than just D.M.S.R.

The dilemna comes when ignorant fans only want low brow material from a legednary musical genius who has transcended popular music for over 20 years.


I for one don't want "low brow" material from Prince but I also don't want lyrics that resemble an essay more than an actual song. Plus I never felt Prince wrote "low brow" stuff in the first place. Just because something might be important from a historical stand point doesn't mean it makes for good subject matter when writing a song. And if you are going to use subject matter such as this in a song, you damn sure better be creative in doing so. This sounds more like a class term paper read outload. P can do better than this.



Educate yourself and then comment - it comes out better

When I read about the Roman Empire, I didn't say my teacher was a racist. When I learned about the Queens of England, I didn't say Queen this or that was racist. When I learned about any white figure in American history, I didn't think of them as racists (not right away smile ).

Because Prince is exposing the history of some very influential Blacks why is this considered a poke at white folks? Come on people, stop being so damn defensive. White folks fucked up and that's the bottom line. Deal with it, because until then we just going to keep going around in circles, fighting about this that and the other. There will never be peace until the truth of Black people on this planet has been told. Until our Black youths realize who they are. Until white folks understand we are not ignorant, but are the original humans and that many advances in human progression is attributed to Blacks. Deal with the truth yall and stop making EXCUSES for the reason you can't accept it. Damn!


I understand. what is next, to pick apart who is this or that?

or a little black or white?

It ain't about black or white, it's about right and wrong. It's wrong for white people to blatantly coverup the history of blacks. This has caused all sorts of misunderstandings about black people. My problem is why is this so hard for white folks to understand? Who should correct this wrong? Should we wait for white folks, who have historically denied black people of everything under the sun to rewrite the history books? If so, that's some really funny logic. So my question again is why does Prince exposing our history make him a racist? That is just feeble minded!

White people, accept the fact that you are not the greatest living race that ever graced the face of the planet. It's not that hard. You cannot accept all the credit and none of the blame. COMPROMISE!!! Be for real and honest with yourselves. Much is going to be exposed about white folks. People are just fed up with all the bullshit. If we keep going on in this vein we will really end up in a fuckin MATRIX, because some people refuse to accept reality.

If more white people accept the fact that they are not superior there would be no need to pick this or that.
(I know, wishful thinking) cause we "all that" every single one of us, we just don't know it yet.

I must say the most racist comment in this thread, in my opinion, has been by Blackcat.

Oh its all bollocks!!! For gods sake. In the past White people shit on black people. Black people shit on white people. Rich people shit on poor people. Then poor people shit on rich people. One person stole someones idea and made it there own. One nation stole anothers land and made it there own. Throughout history that is the case!! Romans took land, "The Moors" took land, France took land, Spain took land, England took land, Greeks took land, USA took land.

But more and more in the last 100 years land was taken or given back. Can we not just move on?!?!

Thank you. I'll take that as a compliment.

Oh its all bollocks!!! For gods sake. In the past White people shit on black people. Black people shit on white people. Rich people shit on poor people. Then poor people shit on rich people. One person stole someones idea and made it there own. One nation stole anothers land and made it there own. Throughout history that is the case!! Romans took land, "The Moors" took land, France took land, Spain took land, England took land, Greeks took land, USA took land.

Well right now white people shittin on everybody. They have been for the past 1000 years or so. Take a look around you TODAY -- what do you see: "Whites Only Proms" only white folks do this type of shit. In the case of blacks in America, it was not only the LAND, but it was the HERITAGE, the LANGUAGE, the SELF. You got that? Give me back my Heritage, Language and my Self and I wouldn't need the likes of you or your kind. And while you at it,give me back my LAND, I'll take that 40 acres and a mule. Thank you very much!


But more and more in the last 100 years land was taken or given back. Can we not just move on?!?!

Move on to what? More of what we got now? Just on a higher level? What you want to take now? My privacy, my freedom to enjoy my privacy? What? Tell me what exactly is it you want to move on to?

Get a life Blackcat. You obviously have some serious issues that you should deal with. Maybe talk to someone whilst lying on a couch.

Obviously one of the problems is that you seem to think being racist is a compliment. HELLO!?!?

"Whites Only Proms" - well we don't have proms over here. But when I went to one in the states it definitely wasn't white only. Does it say that on the invite "No Black People" - doubt it. You choose not to attend - once again thats your issue!

So what is your heritage? What language should you speak? So you don't have a self (That is probably the most worrying comment!!)??

Give you back your land?? Look into it and you might realise it that the land you request isn't yours or Americans for that matter. It most likely belongs to Native Americans. There land was stolen first by the English, French and Spanish and then by Americans.

new lyrix int he VS room
New lyrix from Prince in the Vs room:

THE MOORS IN SPAIN
by Prince (incomplete)

If this great African culture were alive 2day
We’d b 400 years more advanced
From Arabia they came 2 blossom in Spain
And 2 the beat of the drum they danced

Masters of the Arts and all industry
While France, England and all Germany
Wallowed in the mire of their own bigotry
The Moors were the ones who were truly free

Civilization came 2 Europe thru the Greek
Who were simply Africans who came from the Nile
The Greeks gave it 2 Rome who lost their way home
And it stayed that way 4 quite a while

Under their own misconception of Christianity
The barbaric (?) Europeans suffered greatly
While the Catholic Church was staking it’s claim
The Moors were making great gains
Introducing strawberries, lemons and sugarcane
Algebra, chemistry from the Moors this all came
Their contributions 2 knowledge, 2 numerous 2 name
While in Europe there were no public libraries, the Moors in Spain
Had 70, 600 thousand manuscripts and 17 universities

Not hardly a prisoner in the mind of society
In the Spain the Moors were once truly free

The one who is most gifted cannot lead the way in a world that never respected authority…
The sword of the Moor would have never left its sheath if the longhaired barbarian who opposed them would have only seen
That 2 win a war against the so-called “black infidels”
Brings about a peace that cannot last
But I guess all’s well that ends well… well it ain’t over



--

Go cry for the revolution.

Very interesting. The way history tells it is that it was Asia that developed first - Palistine in a place called Jerico in 8350BC. Then it was in Çatalhöyük which is now in Turkey in 7500BC. North Africa reach the same level between 5000 - 3000BC. And still 2 out of every 3 people live in Asia.

Around 4000BC the first Eygptian villages appear and at the same time farming settlements were spreading across Europe.

Babygirl, listen up. I'm not the one angry. Matter of fact, I'm delirious. Finally, everyone's true colors are emerging. Racists see Prince as a racist because he brought to light an influential black civilization. Only a racist would view this in an insult to their being because they're hit with the facts -- black people really are people and not ignorant savages.

Enjoy life? Well actually, I am. I'm black, I'm a woman, I'm independant, I have two beautiful smart and intelligent daughters, and I get on your nerves. lol

Don't hate -- you just jealous! Get over it ok. Jealousy is a really ugly monster...but YOU know this already! lol

Ignorance is bliss eh!


i applaud you, this blackcat person is a nutter, a racist is a racist, and they come in all colours. I cant even begin to take someone like this seriously any more than i can take seriously some red neck piece of white trash.

this whole victim and every white person must hold the blame crap is the biggest bunch of arse and hypocritocal shit ive ever heard. she needs to let go of some of her anger and just enjoy life.

No one is blaming white people for all the injustice in the world. Get over your paranoid nosense and deal with the facts.

The Moors kicked ass all over Europe this is a historical fact. If you do not belive it go look it up and stop making
ignorant comments.

All you people praising Prince for telling The Truth haven't got a clue.

This is almost as ridiculous as those Star Wars-guys on Times Square in New York who claim Mozart, Beethoven and Shakespeare were actually black.

Don't get me wrong, Europe sucks, I have no urge to defend it. But I am European (Dutch) and I live here and have more firsthand knowledge of European history. This lyric is just historical bullshit and bad poetry on top of that. The Greeks came from Egypt, so they were Africans, so they were black? Give me a break. What about the Romans? Africans too? And the Celts, Vikings, Germanic peoples were presumably living in cages before those Africans brought them culture? My gawd...

I've had it with Prince. He's half-white/European himself, so what a self-righteous hypocrite... What makes it worse is that he is actually sucking up to the North African Arabs, who make the same kind of arguments in their Jihad against the west.

Consider me an ex-fan.

If your an ex-fan than get off of this site. Prince is not half-white;both of his parents are black.

What's your point about the poem. The Moors kicked ass all over Europe it is the truth get over it. Africa had great advancded societies that our schools don't even bother teach about anymore. Once a brother like Prince stops being ignorant and opens his eyes he is a bad guy in the eyes of the mighty European. As long as he was running around acting crazy all of the white fans were happy. Well everybody grows up and wakes up. Be happy for the man and stop wishing he would go back to being an empty head.
