He is right. Beyonce is not as humble as she wants to appear. She is not the only one who acts this way. It will come a time when she really become a vet in the industry and people will forget about her. What goes around and comes around, so let her and others have their moments. She and Rihanna did do tribute on their tours.... So. | |

Who cares about MTV? it's an Accu-jack TV channel and I haven't watch it over 25 plus years... we have the music that will outlive MTV someday in the future and believe me it will | |

the worst part about bart, is he's such a hypocrite, it's on the borderline of maybe mental illness...
he reads and studies everything about a man that he despises... it's pretty insane, he's read every book, knows every little fact... i honestly think he might be secretly in love with prince... Secretly? I peeped his fever for the Purple Wand from minute one.  | |

I for one thought Etta should have sung the song. And thought it was in poor taste when B did it. 99.9% of everything I say is strictly for my own entertainment |

Prince and David Bowie were bigger than MTV and didnt need it like Madonna n MJ did, even if it did get P out there to the masses...But he was more than MTV and totally above the shitshow MTV is now and they blatantly proved it "Almost all art is trying to become an anaesthetic and at the same time a healing session drawing up the magical electrics.” | |

Beyonce is a self absorbed egostistical woman. She doesn't care about anything or anybody but herself. Thats not shade that is...just calling spade a spade. MTV also disrespected Michael today and Madonna so I don't care about there dumb award show | |

That chick ain't all that cracked up to be. Your realization is what folks have been saying about her for years. She and her husband are about them dollars and that popular life....and thats about it.2020 said: I was at First Avenue last night (for the first time!!!) with friends and although it was closed for a private event they have a restaurant on the 7th Entry side that was quite good.
Anyway sitting at the bar and this shit show comes on and after the douche knows and Kanye got on stage and started his rant we had enough. There were quite a few 20somethings in the bar and seemed to be enjoying the latest Kanye crap and as we were leaving stated very loudly "this is what kids today think is a role model....PLEASEEEEE get a clue people and listen to a real thought leader and listen to some Prince!
As we all walked out the door we started chanting PRINCE! PRINCE! PRINCE! and actually had some older and younger folks applauding us as we left! Fun times Ha! Love it!  | |

Prince continued to have sell out tours for years with worldwide tours without any play from MTV. Besides, MTV needed Michael, not the other way around. MTV didn't become successful until after they played "Billie Jean" and while Prince may or may not have had his videos played prior doesn't matter considering that the network was flailing until "Billie Jean" was aired. Prince wasn't known for his videos or used them like Michael did but let's not act as though Prince was above MTV before Purple Rain. Thriller was beginning to sell like hotcakes because of Motown 25, not the "Billie Jean" video although it certainly helped. [Edited 8/30/16 7:26am] | |

MTV was not failing before Billie Jean came along because if they really belived they needed him they would have gone ahead and played Billie Jean without being forced. I never said Prince was above MTV long after MTV stopped playing his videos he was getting a million dollars a show. Videos have nothing to do with putting dollars in your pocket. He was sitting on 50 million in real estate he did not get the money for that real estate by worrying about MTV. | |

He was sitting on 50 million in real estate he did not get the money for that real estate by worrying about MTV. It is said almost everywhere that MTV was not doing so great in its first few years. The network didn't turn a profit until 1984 and "Billie Jean" brought the channel more viewers than when it was almost entirely featuring only rock acts. MTV believing they didn't need the video is irrelevant considering that they viewed themselves as a rock music station and "Billie Jean" wasn't rock and considering what playing the video did for them, MTV very much did need Michael. Videos were a promotional tool so they definitely contributed to artists getting paid. They were another platform in which to get an artist's name out, create/build/expand his or her fanbase and entice viewers to buy the artist's album and/or a ticket to see the artist live. Music videos most certainly served a purpose otherwise artists across the board wouldn't have invested in them. Even people who were against music videos like Bruce Springsteen changed their stance and made them because they knew how beneficial a return on such an investment could be. You said that Michael needed MTV which based on your very own logic, is a contradiction considering that he and his family were filthy rich already and thus didn't need MTV when we weren't even talking about money in the first place. We're talking about popularity and fame which both Prince and MJ had prior to MTV (the former less than the latter) and those qualities have little to do with being rich. [Edited 8/30/16 13:13pm] | |

Seriously, in MY eyes... the very best tribute that the MTV's VMAs could have possibly done, would and should have been cancelling! I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart. | |
