Prince quotes on Michael

I read somewhere here today that Prince called Michael "a genius". Is there a transcript of that interview online I could read?

thanks!

basically doug banks did the "in a word describe this person" . Doug said Michael, Prince said genius.

Prince also referred to Janet Jackson as "genius' sister."

The former, definitely.

Maybe Prince had too many Skittles that day.

Not saying that MJ isn't a genius but would he be where he is or Would Thriller have been what it was if his career hadn't intercepted the dawning of the video age?

Janet-Genius: No disrespect to Janet 'cause I really like her but that had to have been his way to give Jimmy and Terry a compliment.

In all seriousness i swear
i think thats the reason Prince has been very "nice" about MJ these days...
... He probably talks to him on his cell phone sharing JW secrets while him and Larry go a door-knockin

i wonder what Prince would say about MJ if someone asked him now. The word "genius" probably isn't the first thing that would pop into his head.

well, P was looking to see what Mike would come out with, and it was nothing compared to Signs or Mike's past efforts. It was the truth, even though P likes The Way You Make Me Feel. As a MJ fan I laughed when I heard it.
