Prince libelled in the Guardian

I just read this article http://www.guardian.co.uk...30,00.html in the Guardian newspaper. Its about artisits leaving record companies, and it inevitably mentioned Prince.

"Consider Prince, once the most exciting and creative pop artist in the world, who abandoned the music industry for the internet a few years ago and literally has not released a single worthwhile note of music since."

What bollocks. Screw the Guardian, I say.

Not sure about libel, but the entire article is a load of pump. booty! And i liked the TTD and Lauryn Hill cds he uses as examples...

Check this quote:

"On the internet, musicians need to sell far fewer CDs to make a profit. So few, in fact, that they stop trying and content themselves with pandering to a tiny market of diehard fans, whose obsession with an artist has caused them to abandon any sense of what constitutes good or bad music."

hmm

You call that libel?! lol

It must be because it's a left wing newspaper!
You are not my "friend" because you threaten my security.
