Yeah, yeah, yeah - what a load of smelly crap... Of course there is real musicianship out there today, and yes, it is still played on the radio all the time. Point is, what do you call musicianship? Although I like my music made with "real instruments played by real people", I also have lots of respect for somebody who can use samplers et al., cause let me tell you, this is reaaaal hard as well, and needs lots of practice, and to get something cool out of it you need to be creative and inventive.

God, I get sick of all this "my music is better than though" annoncements. So you play a guitar - so what.

Reminds me a lot about this pointless discussion in art - pictures we now consider masterpieces were damned by small-minded people who said that they are not real art because they are not like Rubens or Valquez...

I'm tired, y'all

Oh c'mon!

You know you all are going to buy it!

hah! Prince fans


Oh, that means me too. redface
Nope, not even at the reduced price. I don't really think it's fair to do it like this, especially if it gets released as a DVD in a while.

so if NPGMC sold you a bottle of juice that was only about 8 ounces, and you could ONLY drink from it while the container was in your refrigerator, and it was the same price as a 64 ounce jug of juice, and let's say you like juice...you'd just go ahead and buy that juice cuz it's prince juice and that's just how it goes?

ok, weird analogy, but...my whole issue was that i don't wanna pay seven bucks for something i can only enjoy at my computer, because i don't really dig on enjoying music via my computer. if i bought the clip as it was, i'd probably look at it once or twice, and it would languish in my hard drive and i might look at it a couple times every few months from then on. if i had an audio file i could burn to CD, i'd listen to the sucker all the time.

maybe some of you dig on watching computer files on your computer. great for you. but i don't. so for me, the inclusion of the audio file not only sweetened the deal, but it made up my mind to buy the clip. the lowering of price just made the whole thing that much more enticing.

and y'all complaining about complainers are doing the same damn thing you're putting down when you whine about the whiners. i'm sure prince is very proud of you for defending his product and all and i'm just absolutely certain he's personally taking notes for his next disbursement of purple twinkie badges for y'all, but seriously - knock it off. discussion forums are for discussing things. you're entitled to your opinion, but then again, the same could be said for those with whom you disagree.

and now i've just complained about people complaining about complainers...sheesh...redface

Wow! That's the first time I've heard of someone complaining about the complainers complaining about the complainers!! Now that takes some talent. No beef here,just thought it was funny!

What is this? High school? No one's doubting Prince is the man and saying no one's talking about us is just juvenile. Oh damn. I forgot I was talking about some Prince fans. rolleyes

This is not about "P's music is better than though" it's about no live bands being promoted and pushed in music 2day especially in R&B. U can't name any young black group of musicians carrying on the tradition of the great R&B bands from back in the day. Example: P-Funk,Cameo,EWF,The Time,Ohio Players,Zapp etc.,etc. where as u have the white bands still in the public eye keeping traditional Rock alive. Notice that in Billboard they combined the HipHop and R&B charts which helped faze out the R&B Bands. They did'nt combine the POP charts with the HipHop. So P has seen the emphasis on digital and sampled music. Public Enemy was the best at sampling in hiphop period. I don't think P or I is saying that they are not creative but that sampled produced music gets 2 much play bcuz thats what's pushed by the industry recording wise and live performance wise. If a kid grew up in the late 80's all he knows is 2 sample music. The ARTS especially music have been stripped from schools in the hood thats y P did the very 1st VH1 save the music concert special. Learning how 2 play an instrument is a lost art and P is just 1 of many trying 2 save and preserve it!
U,ME,WE!....2FUNKY!
