In the issue of Rolling Stone magazine with Michael Jackson on the cover, the article has a little Prince mention in the Michael Jackson story.

It says:

"For the most part, nights seemed to be the biggest problem for Jackson- he had complained of insomnia for years. But it was also the time when he felt a higher power was channeling creativity to him. "I didn't get a whole lot of sleep last night," he would tell Ortega. "I was up working on music. That's when the information is coming, and when it's coming you gotta work."

"Michael," Ortega joked with him, "why can't you make a pact with your higher power so that you could put these ideas on the shelf until after July 13th?"

"No," Jackson responded. "Then he might give them to Prince."

That's funny. I assume that quote "...he might give them to Prince." is from Michael as he was preparing for the O2 concerts? Maybe there's some truth in the claim that Michael wanted to outdo Prince's record at the arena. lol
