Prince treated Jesse and the Time very shabby according to another interview. Prince sounded shallow and undermining to his proteges. Arrogant and narcissistic. Shame on you Nelson Rogers!
When Donnie asked "where did the name Time come from?" They were careful on how to answer. The fellas knew Prince would be watching and ready to come down with the smack down if they answered wrong. Prince U was a bad mother........ "shut yo mouth! but talking 'bout Prince."
The Time was the Coolest and one of the tightest bands ever........And that darn JESSE JOHNSON!!!! Dude was one of the baddest cats to ever play guitar and had more swag than any guitar player ever lol
Can someone load up the intro where they spoke BRIEFLY about Jimmy and Terry's departure. That was hilarious from what I remember. And don't forget Monte was part of that trio called " The Secret".
Prince did say his so call friends ,talked behind his back, and said some hurtful things about him!!! Just listening to the group the times talk, joking about Different things, it's jealousy. Prince becoming the greatest intertana ever, I believe it troubles the guy's!!!!
Prince wasn’t the nicest to them. Theirs many evidences even from their own mouths that has proved that. But prince and Morris were very close . I’m sure it was all Love at the end of the day. But it’s the truth they weren’t good movies 🤷🏽♀️
i understand what you're trying to say but, if you really look at how everything played out....these probably aren't the "friends" he was referring to. also, take into consideraition 1990 for P, not the most successful/profitable or happy time for him. People were leaving Paisley left and right, the music industry shifted on him and he wasn't holding a candle to the new jack swing and teddy riley. Meanwhile, Jam and Lewis along with FLyte Tyme (which is pretty much everyone you see here) were producing hit after hit, soundtrack after soundtrack, getting chart positions Prince could never get along with awards to match and a sound of their own! There's no room for jealousy when you're in your purpose. Prince had people he thought were friends, they were really a bunch of yes men and women.
My opinion if it wasn't for Prince those guys will be non factors Jesse Johnson Morris Day!!!! Prince🎸 was the greatest of all time it will be forever💜
I love prince too - but no joke - these cats were the truth - it’s a shame there isn’t more footage of them live so everyone who wasn’t around could see
The Time band one of the most amazing bands I ever seen in my life to form. It's now 20 20 just about to become 20 21 you better ask somebody 1982 still doing the same songs people still rocking and jumping around you better ask somebody these guys are awesome if you ever get the chance to get a ticket to see you then you better get it can't get a real good seat because you won't believe what you see is Showmanship is superb to Jerome he's just as cool keep doing it Time band I'm going to follow you to the end of time LOL
i love The Time. This was a amazing band, but Prince wrote all their hits and provided a platform for their CAREER. Unfortunately they couldn't match the tunes Prince wrote. It would have been nice to have seen them all resolve their issues and continue their success together.
He certainly was! He's a good lad. :-) As for men being naturally controlling, I totally understand what you mean, although it's not true as a generalisation. I would say that men are perhaps more likely to be controlling than women but not definitely not naturally. Nature = variation!
@spideyyy3 and @musicman wow...I READ ALL OF YOU GUYZ COMMENTS ON GOING BCK & FORWARD ABOUT PRINCE AND MICHAEL JACKSON!! IN 2012 YOU GUYZ BOTH HAD ME ROLLN !! LOL ( I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW AS A SPECTATOR WAT ARE YOU GUYS THOUGHTS AND VIEWS NOW IN 2016 NOW THAT PRINCE JUS PASSED!

I do BElieve the stories of Prince being controlln ..although, the dust have not settled yet..becuz I cryed it was jus sad & still is about his death !!! But Morris & THE TIME was a very very hott group wen I was a little gurl...and Prince wasn't there@the peak of his career like he eventually grew/ develop to soon become !! He had to start somewhere aswell!! And I do believe the stories about PRINCE being a lil bit intimidating by The Times I can see dat!! Altho , he might have had the rights to the name & etc..If, you rewind the story back!! Morris Day.. them had a very thick fan base aswell ppl loved his performance he was very very entertaining and somewhat humorous &different!! From wat I can remember as a child .. Oh, and fine as fuck jus like Prince!! So, I can believe some of those stories about PRINCE in his early years ..he was a much younger man too. they all were ..TrynAh find their way!! Prince was a human being like anybody else was !! We have to be careful about DAT as ppl!!,To understand these stars are human being too!! But, I trully believe PRINCE WAS a brilliant business man! He , jus got caught up w/ the bigger folkz like (WB) The Gansterz!! AND HE WAS OH , MY GOD EXTREMELY GIFTED AND PROBABLY MORE ADVANCED THAN THOSE GUYZ!! ON A SIDE NOTE SOMEBODY USUALLY GETZ FUCKED IN THE END!! I DONT REMEMBER WHO JESSIE JOHNSON WAS MYSELF!! ITS POSSIBLE DAT PRINCE GOT OVER ON HIM...AND ITS POSSIBLE HE WOULD HAVE GOT OVER ON PRINCE!! DID PRINCE JUS BEAT HIM TO THE PUNCH!! ENTERTAINING BUSINESS IS JUS A BEAST ALL BY ITSELF NOT TO EVEN MENTION FRIENDSHIPS!!
Phattest...best...funkiest beat...EVER!!! And I'm old! Freshman in High School when that joint came out...and when I first heard it...it was like, what the f*** is that bass line all about???!!! But, now it's all about, WHO THE F*** CAME UP W/ THAT BEAT???!!! Funkiest...baddest...most complex...most alluring beat EVER!!! And, being a person that LOVES BASS, it's all about how the heck was that high-hat put together w/ the bass??? Don..don...don...donnut...don..nut...dat...don..dun...nut... 7...7...7..ninety-threeeeeeee...eleven!!!
Prince dogged the heck out of this group and bust them up because they turned out better than he thought they would. He was not looking at this the right way. You don't compete with and destroy your own creations!
