Prince Exposes the Music Industry 

coming from princess especially when he said " they probably are going to edit this out" tells me that he is real about what he is saying. that's what I kept thinking that there is more to that industry than meets the eye. Now him along with Michael Jackson two of the worlds greatest entertainers are dead now. it is a disgrace and a shame that people's lives have to end that way. May they rest in peace and I believe the industry will suffer for all their evil they do.

Same with sam cooke back in the 60s then he was popped dead.

It's what capitalism is. The rich exploit the hard working people to make themselves more money. It's in every industry.

​@@armedsoup298 A change is gonna come is a masterpiece by Sam Cooke

Yeah but how much of this is actually true and not just a bunch of narcissistic artists who were bad with money and spent it all or maybe they made a bad deal? I don't see how that's our problem with the way people like prince always bring it up. Dude is highly egotistical, makes me think he doesn't like it being done to him yet he'll do it to others sorta like Micheal did with Sony but held his ownership of other artists music over their head and profited from it.

Those most important thing I heard.

@@iridium8341 That too is true. However, my understanding is his overdose was due to pain from performing and not to get high.

​@@iridium8341 He was not a drug addict

​@noahwinston3282 right! 😂🤣

​@gracejonesboxcut4990 yes he was,

That part. ❤❤

His point was that his community, the one he was asked to fix, was stealing from him. It's not about keeping money. It's about not stealing.

Order the last ten years of your wage and income transcripts from the IRS, they should state your Person is non-statutory, go from there with the correct claims, w8-ben form etc etc to achieve more or less full tax exemption. There's many forms of exemptions.

Muhammad Ali had the same problem with the same people.

Fr

Yeah, he could sing well on a bad vocals day and still sound good

Prince was only filled with love for Prince, one of the most narcissistic arrogant artists ever.

​​@@user-pp1on4fk7d99% of musicians are that way

If you're the best in the world, I'd hope you're feeling love and calmness 😂

​@@user-pp1on4fk7dyou're not wrong there in real life he was a true POS

LOLA, I DIDN'T EVER WITNESS THIS SIDE OF HIM!!! ITS NICE TO KNOW THAT HE WAS A REAL PERSON WITH UNDERSTANDABLE MOTIVES LIKE THE REST OF US.

A Gemini ♊️ We are amazing

And fine!

Talented, integer, disciplined, yes, but intelligent I am not so sure......all he needed was a hip replacement but his religious beliefs did not allow him to get surgery. He killed himself with opiates as he couldn't stand the pain no more. I'll get a new hip in less than 2 weeks. F*** Religion, hail the modern medicine!!!

Dam I miss prince 😩🥹🥹🥹🥹🎼🎼🎼❤️

He was a generation in front of most of the people in the same industry as himself. A brilliant all-round musician, he was also a brilliant businessman. RIP Prince. 😢❤😊

Lml

If you think you can live however the hell you desire and go to heaven you will not rest in peace.. THERE IS NO RESTING IN PEACE FOR SINNERS WHO REFUSE TO REPENT AND TURN FROM THEIR SINS TO JESUS CHRIST THE PRINCE OF PEACE Y'ALL JUST SAY RIP GALAXY CALLED YOU ALL OUT AND YET MANY OF YOU REFUSE TO HEAR YOU CARE MORE ABOUT YOUR OWN ENTERTAINMENT THAN YOU DO ABOUT THESE PEOPLE SOULS YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT THESE PEOPLE SAW YOU LIKE YEAH YOU CAN SING YEAH YOU CAN DANCE YAY YOU ENTERTAIN ME. When it comes down to the nitty-gritty though you really don't care about these people and God knows you don't God will reveal all these people are nothing but dancing monkey see you cuz if you truly cared about them you wouldn't worship them you would worship Jesus Christ and you would pray for these people to use their god-given talents to do God-given things

People don't listen to grown people talking about business but yet if it was Justin Bieber talking like this they would listen which is ashame.

A lot of folks listened. He also wasn’t the first person to do this. His stage name is what made it difficult for him.

This is what *Michael Jackson* told us and So did *George Michael* and *Prince.* All 3 Stood up, fought back and Spoke Out publicly like this.

And now they are all dead 💀 seems too suspicious to me 🧐 The elites ended their lives ..

No he was killed

​@@TheHoodVoice2024no he was a narcissistic drug addict who OD'd multiple times in his last week alive

@@TheHoodVoice2024yeah

🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😘😘😘😘😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😇

🙏

Genius for telling that.

Yeah, he wasn’t fucking ghetto..

This brilliant musician’s presents in the world is truly missed😢

​@@michael-8958 His "presence" 🙌🏽🕺🏽 /😒🎁🎂

And MJ 👍

@whitemaninventedeverything9511 Everyone's entitled to an opinion. It's not your fault your uneducated.

@whitemaninventedeverything9511 So what people say about you must be true. Wow! 'you fell out your mother's C*** a loser. Hit the floor hard cos the bungee cord was to long. Explains your brain damage.' Don't be mad at me its just the word on the streets.

@whitemaninventedeverything9511 You know about the great opium war. The Chinese hate English speaking small dick, uneducated control freaks. You ain't running shit. In Fiji we ate people like you. Do you home work. Captain Cook "yum".

He sure was, I didn't understand it, when he changed his name to they symbol, he was telling people to go independent, ones you sign that contract you really don't even own your own name, if you do a commercial they want part of it, you do a movie they want part of it, Smdh I'm glad before he passes he got back all the Rights to his music

they're not talking about the industry you numb skull they're talking about digital downloads for free off the internet which has nothing to do with the music industry. at least try to keep up if you're going to have some blithering stupid post

With all his fellow witches.

REAL TALK.. THEY WERE THE REAL G,S NOT LIKE THESE ARTISTS OF TODAY.. ACTIN TUFF ON VIDEOS AND SOCIAL MEDIA.. BUT THEY STR8 PUNKS FAGS AND BITCHES

They where strong black men frm the mussel, with the music industry

Money, that's all pop is.

Yes and they were murdered for saying too much

Prince was extremely talented and intelligent. He spoke on everything and one of the first artists to pave way to artist owning their masters.

...ya by his own hand

No he wasn't. He wanted to get high. So he did and it killed him. End of story

​@@gNOme_5 that part is the unfortunate truth.

😢😢😢😢💔💜😇

Fentanyl overdose.

And they’re both dead . 🤔

They were murdered

Kanye too

@@who399 Corey Feldman too

Sam Cooke! John Lennon! Lennon shocked American media by giving credit to American blues legends and Motown for their inspiration. This set was n motion billions of Black artists finally getting credits and royalties denied them and the real motive for his assasination

Prince(?) might have been a better businessman than artist and he was a world class artist/musician. The way he setup the whole Minnesota sound. His description of his industry was brutally correct.

Wow this hit different

So r u saying Kanye is dead since 2018 and u feel his spirit too

Kanye is a psycho

That joker Kanye. To even mention that conspiracy theorist in the same sentence as Prince is deplorable.

​@@gp4872 bra u stupid asf if u got tht bs from tht verse

and all of them mysteriously have been called crazy at some point in their career and have allegedly had “drug issues”. no coincidence.

@@dreamkittyand lastly died to weird circumstances

@@vonthegreat870 common denominator for MJ and Prince were overdoses smh

They still own you in this great Jew S. A . Not USA. Will the real Jews stand up? Oh that's us

Kanye West is going to be next to die....watch.

Yes

they been murdering or biggest and brightest. and get off with no charges no investigation.

💯

Before i always doubted that this was the case...but of recent this fact has come full circle for me.

no you degenerate.

@@markkasha1753 u must be white i suspect u are a white supremacist

L

Me too. I always found he had an interesting take on the world. Lot of people called him crazy but I always thought he was 10 years ahead of most people. Most just weren’t ready for what he was saying.

@@leeharrison8222 I have always admired Prince and his weirdness. But he was a brilliant thinker. I followed Prince since 1979 when I was only 6 yrs old 💜

His voice is an ASMR in itself.

So glad he exposed the corruption of the industry because our people's talents shouldn't be their gravy trains

That don't hold up in court

I'd want it in writing, because people forget what they said. Their word could just as easily be their con.

@@lql1094 Yea, I hear ya, but Prince and Chaka did right by their artists. Who u heard sed sumthng negative bout their business practices? They fought against the system cs they were done wrong in contract situations! That contract means nutn if u ain’t got more power behind u than the people who drafted it!

​@@ebonix33 yes it does

Yeah cause Prince did Morris Day right. You youngsters will just make shit up to try and sound smart.

If he was a financial genius he would have never had to fight those record companies for all those years because he signed a bad contract

@@Charleshudspeth Prince was only 19 or 20 when he signed his first record deal. He was young and ignorant. He became a financial genius later. In life, sometimes you don't learn until you make a mistake.

Sorry, man, but Prince was anything but humble. Don't let this interview fool you. And that's not to say that he was a bad person.

@@openspringsPrince was the most humble person I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing, and he truly loved helping others thrive. I can’t speak to how he was when he was younger, but from his late 40s and through his 50s when I knew him, he was THE most humble.

Sometimes you gotta act like a fool to expose your genius

@@Hexspaindeed.

That's why he was banned from television for a long time. His first return was apprentice after his time was up. He got banned for bringing awareness to Americans about America and other countries. They hushed him quite well.

Then he brought louis farakan & j3w1sh mafia got rid of him & he disappeared

You are correct . Now Arsenio had his quirks but he was a great interviewer. Something that would culture shock those who engage in stereotypes is a statement he made . Yes occasionally Arsenio could take lighthearted jabs at the white black thing . Yet as far as prejudice and discrimination is concerned , Arsenio who grew up in Ohio said that he never experienced it .

Pleass do not put Kanye and prince together in a sentence

@@cmsjr2001 Move Along....Prince said what Michael Jackson said.. Kanye sayin what both of them said... Go research that truth..

​@@cmsjr2001why not they're saying the exact same thing, hey out of your feelings dude.

This mfer made 1/2 a billion and has the nerve to complain 😒

Umm no. U clearly haven't seen the Sway interview

He is not in a good place, you wish to follow?

He's dead Warner Brothers is back in control of everything...what was the sense of the fight?

He was special but we only have one King and Jesus will be returning soon🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻

You realize Prince was 57 years old when he died. He could have shared a lot of ideas? Lol you act like he didn't have time to share ideas. C'mon

He became semi reclusive and mistrusting! We lost Prince way back when he became the Artist! Also when people get into their senior years like 70's and up. That is when they typically drop pretenses and open up their books without shames! ​@@Charleshudspeth

How many years more could we have gotten?? ​@@Charleshudspeth

Thank you brother. You verify what I've been trying to explain to people for years.🖤

Prince and Michael Jackson, were had genuine talent and listening to them speak left one inspired not filled with self satisfying self righteous hate .there speech was motivational not to mention coherent.

@@simmonsgalloway8466 And ppl did misunderstood MJ when he made „They don’t care about us“ bcs it was „Anti-Semitic“. So i think ppl don’t like to questioning to Kanye why he saying things like that or how he get to this point. It proves Ye‘s point again. RiP MJ & Prince

MJ had left Sony owning half of Sony , Prince and MJ were smarter than they realised .

@@bp2000k Except Kanye is actually anti-Semitic. MJ more than likely didn’t know how Jew was used as a slur in his song he was saying they don’t care about Jewish people just like how they don’t care for any minority.

SAM COOK STRIVE TO GET THE ARTISTS TOGETHER JUST FOR THAT PURPOSE ✅

Glad you mentioned him. I think Cooke learnt from what was happening to Little Richard.

@@ibraheemrufai416 Sam Cooke saw what was going on exactly; and tried to sway others….they had to get rid of him. We are truly our worst enemies….even when you think about the black woman who was in the hotel….setup!

@@lindasamuels1764 The thing I've come to wonder is did that black woman really kill him, or was it simply that he died at the hands of those who truly wanted him dead? Only God knows...

Yeah and it's taken me 48 years to realise it.

Both Prince and Katt Williams in the same breath-- I can't see that.

For the record, Prince didn't start calling himself "the artist" or "the artist formally known as." As he explained, it was media who coined those phrases because they didn't know any other way to announce him as a symbol. He had to kinda accept it because he couldn't escape it. I didn't realize until recently that his symbol was the marriage of, both, the male and female gender symbols together. Either way, Prince always has and always will symbolize the apitamy of swag!!

Slavery ok
