Know what? I scare myself sometimes....

here i am, knowin all i know about ol' boy and what he did way back when...and i'm almost 23 years old. think about it: around the time i wuz conceived, the prince album wuz still hot...and by the time i wuz born dirty mind had only been out for like a couple months. eek

it's shocking, really: i could be sittin here, fresh on the scene of prince-dom, hummin "diamonds and pearls" or any of his '90s crap and comin here on the org, lookin at all the old-skoolers' testimonials and sittin in front of my pooter like, "ohmigod, he wore that onstage??? what a dork!" without knowin anything that entailed a certain era. but, here i am...

my fave album is dirty mind.

my fave bootlegged shows are ritz '81, houston '81 & '82, and detroit '82 & '86.

i have no trouble findin all these old-skool pix for folks who ask me.


...all this, and i'm only 22 years old and have only been a prince freek for 8 years. sometimes i feel as if i shouldn't know so frickin much about p's work.

i scare me.

ha ha that's a cool way of looking at yourself!
seriously,being a "young-school fan" means you come from
a different perspective than old-school fans like me.

different perspective is what this thang is all about.

you say dirty mind is your favorite album?

i think it was the first one of his that really freaked
me out. the first 2 records were cool...but dirty mind
made me look at da boy and say...DAMnnn!!!

by the way dansa,if U got anymore prince pic circa dirty
mind show them...got any with andre?

he was almost as COOL as prince was back then.

I am 23 and when I was conceived I think the self titled Prince lp was out, so it's only natural that I was born a freak wink(from all the stories I hear about the yr 79)... I'm just glad I was old enough to remember most of Prince in his Prime years (84-87) I remember when my mom took me 2 see under the cherry moon at the drive in and I cried at the end ( I was only 6)
I said mom is Prince dead fur real lol...

Anyways Hands I can most definetly related to ur words I know more about Prince older stuff then the newer stuff and my favorite album is countroversy/1999. I bought the cassette tape when it was released as a double feature smile

(right now my fav album is the black album bootleg released) edit

Chiiile you know you're too late but least you got at it all figure out finally lol,,,Shiiit, I even thought you were 45(remember that orgnote?) till I read yo profile by chance. You're as young as my older brotha Mustafa.

However, I sometimes think that you front with this "WHO?" thang when it comes to 2day's artists(if you want me 2 be honest witcha) Like who in hell would mistake Jill Scott 4 Angie Stone? eek

But then again, If I'm mistaken and this is NOT a front I like I think. Then you're waaay to cool, homegirl headbang

Keep it up baby hug you know how I love your vibe nod
