...if i see one more instance of "prince", "mozart" and "genius" in the same sentence, i'ma scream. "genius" has nothin to do with it...if everybody has sumfin that they love to do and they do it well, then everybody would be labeled as a genius.

a lotta folks fit that definition, but it still don't mean the word should be slung around and pinned as such. 'tis an over-used word, especially when it comes to ol' boy.

Pity it doesn't apply to prince then.

Since when was he ever supposedly intelligent? Prince is a damn sheep.
