Prince used the recording industry, they never used him. He insisted on producing his very first album-new artist, unproven, yet he would have walked if they’d not let him produce-and he never looked back. Prince was like France. People say, “Ooooh! The French are so snooty, stuck up, think they’re the best people on the planet!” Well, they have incredible food, artists, perfumers, architects, designers, so they kinda do have the right to some attitude. Prince played all the instruments, and played them at a level few achieve, he wrote lyrics and music, he sang every show, no tracks, no auto tune, no lip synching. My most favorite Prince video is of him at the RARHOF induction, and the stage is packed with stellar names. Prince comes out and blows them all completely back with his solo on “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”, then tosses his guitar over his dang head and walks off, as if to say, “There fellas. THAT’S how it’s DONE!” Genius true and through. He’s left a gap no one comes close to filling.
EDDIE SANCHEZ:.. Lol omg! THAT was GOOD!!!! FUNNY yet it's really . well, I HEAR the sadness Abt the FACT in that statement, too. And THATs not easy to do, esp in the written word 👍👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟🌟 😂😝😢😞😜. I missed that story. I was taking care of my mother at that time . She died in 2012. . Can anyone. Tell me why he was put in that position; WHY the HELL did she go on his stage? What did she think she was doing?. Was she overconfident & dancing like she just knew he'd fall all over himself to dance with her or WHAT! GEEZ I CANT IMAGINE WHAT CLD have possessed her!
He was always kind of an advanced thinker and I think a whole lot of people were bugged about that. He came off as standoffish because, he didn't waste his words with small talk like most people do. Like if you went up to him and said "Hey, what's up," he wouldn't have said, "not much," or "how's it goin'" or any kind of thing. He'd answer the question for what it truly was.
To me,he seems like a person who hates fake people and was tired round lipsyncs too,the man had talent. I too had problems when it comes with fake people too,i grew up thinkin talent is too important then educations. Bless this man
Prince did not give one damn about truly speaking his mind and telling it like it was. Thats was the contrast between him and MJ. Micheal tried to much to appease and compromise what he really felt just to be accepted.
I was there at Madison Square Garden when it happened . Priceless 😂 She was acting too cute to dance so Prince told her to get off his stage , but he kept the regular people on the stage who were dancing 👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 .
Exactly right these new artists supposedly super star making million dollars easily thanks to their loyal followers and making them millionaires can’t compare to this guy and the back in the day real legends hahahaha
Same with that trifelin cardi b and that arianna grande kid. One patented a word she calls oker and the other was caught spitting on people donuts. Trade these 2 in for Johnny Cash and Prince, notice how i used large caps for the real entertainers names. Just speaking truth.
Saw Prince in concert 3 times, but the most memorable was as what would now be called a "pop-up". These were the days when top artists would just show up last minute and surprise the audience. This night there was a buzz that someone HUGE was going to show up and my then husband insisted that I go with him. 1987, small San Fernando Valley venue the size of a family restaurant. Standing room only. He comes out and we all go crazy. About 10 minutes in, he spots me leaning against the wall and because he could see that I was very pregnant (8 months) and barely holding myself up, invites me to come sit on the stage, which I did. I literally sat on the stage floor next to the speaker for the remainder of the set. One of the biggest thrills I've ever experienced. By the way...Sheila E was on drums.
@@drw4339 people kill me with this pics sheot or it didn't happen. I would never grace your ignorant ass with proof. So what if it did or didn't happen. Beautiful story to remember Prince and his persona by. As that type of stuff was for sure what Prince was about.
He let my two children and me watch his rehearsal in Pasadena, CA. His security let us go in, just walked into the auditorium and sat down. I was blow away. He knew we were there and was fine with it! My kids were young, 10 or so, but they still remember. He was a very spiritual person. Like Michael Jackson. I’m sorry they are both lost to this world. Truly gifted musicians, who will always be remembered! ❤
@@amandahuginkiss4098 these people who are doing a documentary are talking no acral facts its a one sided story tbh I kno mj is innocent there was not everidene to say he did any of what wade and the other man is saying they are doing it for money first wade in 2013 sued mj estate for billions he went to court in 2017 and it was dropped oh now look out of no where we got a documentary of two people who had mjs back am sorry but if am mistaken I would not sue some one if o got molested I would not swear in court that nothing ever happened I would not of had his back back in 1993...SME to the other person he also had mjs back through out mjs life so plz there so much everidence to point to ihis innocent you haters just read tabloids reads what is on the sun funny how they have not everidene of any Wong doing the FBI followed mj for 11 years they could not found nothing even after he died they search evey phone laptops mj owned they could not found nothing...and just to let u kno if u gonna bing this up mj DID not pay they money to the 1993 case it was his estate who went behind his bk to do it...and before you gonna say they found porn tom snionnon/the lawyer uses fake everidene that's why it was dropped don't believe me it in the court documents even the dury said to he was a gentle soul who was misunderstood he made Neverland for himself he regained his lost childhood he changed himself because his dad called him every name under the sun he was humble gave over 500millom to Charity and the ADIDS foundatio...it was not just BOYS who went to Neverland it was ever gender race...he was so pure but people are so blind to see it u lot think a 39/40 year old spending time with kids is strange but in mj eyes they were his friends the never took advantage of him they never knew his states they only knew him as Michael Jackson... Think of this yh say you never had a child always working from the age of 5 you are not gonna grow up sane are you u would want that childhood back u want to feel how it felt to be a Child...but he got cal wako and a wirdo and a freek ......
@@kourtneyfits2421 If someone accued me of being a pedo and I was innocent I would fight it tooth and nail. I wouldn't settle financially to keep it out of court. I would WANT to go to court to clear my name. If there was no evidence then why didn't he go to court? There were several victims whose silence he bought cause he was rich. He thought he could get away with it cause he was rich but now history is finally judging him and people will him him for the sicko that he was.
@@amandahuginkiss4098 u bull shifting naw your watching a documentary not based of fats but based on two people who HAD mjs back first he never paid 7 people of he paid once witch was 20 Millon's actually it was not even him that's why in the 2005 trial they traced it bk to 1993 case they found phone calls between the dad say we are gonna destroy mj legacy he won't sell one more recorded this is gonna be beyond his worse night mares...he did fight he was so devastated he stopped eating there phone calls with him and Lisa maria Presley he say how could they something so terribleness when all I try to do is give love back in to the world he went court for 5 months he got found innocent on all 14 counts no everdende from the 1993 case plus the child came put years after and said he was forced to do and say those things you saying stiff wat I know not true I have studied this man for a longgg time...as again he was misunderstood he was treated so bad by adults..."lies run Sprint's but the truth runs marathons "...
Saw him perform in Glendale, AZ years ago, he did a short set because the acoustics were terrible in the venue. He had played for about an hour at that point, abruptly stopped the show and gave EVERYONE a refund. He said he is a professional and if others could not live up to that standard he was not going to make us suffer…Prince’s music guided me on my youthful journey and I matured through his music as he matured as an artist…Respect👍🏾
Prince was like a fine wine, allowed to mature and hone his art over many many years before going on the shelf. Many artist these days (not all) are like mass produced wine that have gone straight to the shelf for £$. I do miss the slower paced days when we had time to let things mature....music, movies, artists, athlete's. Now everything is "get there quick" on half the talent of those from our yesteryears.❤
TX WiseGuy I meant it in the context of how it's used these days. By the way, while I agree that humans survived by being savages, it wasn't popular by any means. Being a savage was considered an insult, despite how necessary it was for survival at times. Just like in the Japanese theater during WWII, while it was necessary for American troops to survive the brutal fighting, many of the survivors were sickened at the fact that they had to descend to that level of callous savagery to do so.
i couldn't be a sheep if i tried. always been Divergent and that will help me avoid the coming economic pain. robots are going to really affect the workforce. so will the global trade deals. jobs will be scarce but major opportunity if you get ready now. Ecommerce is a great option to learn. Shopify is also a great option to learn and use. YOu can make stores will little money since you only pay for products after someone buys it. So no money of your own...... Then get into another similar idea and keep going until u make good money. Nobody gets rich or is truly happy working 9-5.
Prince was a no BS type of guy man he didn’t tolerate BS. If it wasn’t right, he would let you know before it was the end of the night. I truly appreciate, and will miss a man who is substance his understanding, and his willingness to tell you how it really is whether you felt it was wrong as far right God bless you Mr. Prince Nelson
I agree with you Angelina. Prince has a lot of talent he deserves a stage. As for Kim, well she needs to stop making fun of herself on the big screen and find some real talent... It's disappointing what people can get famous for these days.
yeah but what is she actually,actress,singer,politic,scientist? she`s nothing ! absolutelly nothing.She is famous because she is a friend of Paris Hilton and that`s it.Hilton is also nothing btw just a porn actor.
Omg I feel like Prince & Kat Williams are related. The side eyes & disses 😂😂😂 and the fact they never have a problem calling out the big ppl in Hollywood 😂😬
*As much as I love Trey Songz, I turned the TV volume all the way down that awards day! Trey should have known better sounding horrible singing Prince Purple Rain song! It was a Purple Mess!* 🤣🤣🤣
I just absolutely LOVE him and we literally lost an angel when he passed away!! The world is a little darker now without him!! Definitely need his talent in our lives!! There will NEVER be another Prince…he’s why the word GOAT was made.
Greetings from Mexico, I love what I am seeing on your profile. And i apologize for jumping into your comment in such a way. I'm really looking forward to get to know you better. If you're comfortable with it, I'd love to talk somewhere outside the RU-vid comment section. and get to know each other a bit more intimately. What do you think?😊
Prince is the only guy I know of that could walk into a club with high heel boots, ruffles & eye shadow and STILL walk out with 3 of the hottest girls there...legendary.
You know Prince was a beast when you look at the fact that he had enough money to probably buy a nice size plot in LA but stayed in Minneapolis away from the fake "stuff".
If you know anything about Minnesota and it's suburbs it's as fake here as any Hollywood Grotto. Minneapolis is not a suburb in the slightest which is why the million dollar homes are in Chanhassen, Champlin, Eden Prarie, Lake Minnetonka, Orono etc.
Thank you for this. I have always been a huge fan and feeling heartbroken when we lost him. Let's hope he is up there still throwing shade at other wannabes. Nobody like Prince ever! Lots of love!! ❤
People are just sucking the tits of a fakeass news. She was awkward as hell and did not want to be on stage, prince noticed it and kicked her off. -jokingly- As if Prince would genuinely do something so low-class like kicking a person off stage on purpose rudely. Where do these people come off.
Yes, Prince just about kringed when Trey was trying to sing his purple rain song. I don't know why he did that song, I kinda felt bad and was embarrassed for him...lol...he butchered that song so badly, I would have just stopped singing and walked off stage, damn! lol
Prince played every instrument on every song on every album (except live music) , wrote all the music and all the lyrics on every album of HIS, Morris Day and The Time, and The Appolonia 6. A musical GENIUS gone way too early. RIP Prince, we’ll chop it up on The Other Side one day brother. ✌️
He truly does not get the respect he deserves today. Just like how everyone knows MJ and his classics, this generation should know Prince. Unfortunately most of my friends have not even touched his discography
You won't be allowed in Jesus' VIP section to chop it up with Prince tho. Ah yes, JC's... they never run out wine at Club Jesus and you won't ever get a hangover... cause he's healing the sick! Whoop whoop!
It has to be said; Prince knew how talented he was--how visionary he was and a man of great taste and style. Rest in Peace, oh Purple one! There will never be another like you!
To be fair Lady Gaga is probably equally talented from a compositional level... But she sold her soul to the Illuminati and Prince spent his life tryna tell us about it so...
@@thisisgettingold I think that's a stretch. That said, she can play several instruments well and she's a superb pianist. She also has a great singing voice. She's head and shoulders above the likes of Bieber and just about anything charting currently.
Why did he write Slave? He had millions and a wonderful life, can't people forget the past, what about the Jews you don't see them writing Holocaust on there faces, I love prince but I don't agree with that, if we can't forget the past how can we make a future and BLM just a political movement with no intention to help my brother's n sisters
@@ahhwe-any7434 so what if he was? It's his heart and mind that those songs came out of. Take whatever it is that you care about most in life and, rather than keeping it to yourself forever, you decide to share it with the world. They know it's yours, but they're not necessarily calling you to mind when they're using it. It's not a life-giving invention or a "useful tool," it's a work of art, a labor of love, an extension of yourself. When you share it, you share yourself. But that doesn't mean you want others to run that extension of yourself through a copy machine, you know?
@@roomum9829 he invited her up because she was all in front, of course. But, then you're not going to dance but trying to hang all up round him while he performing. No rhythm, just posing. He said nah 👉🏽
Yeah, it definitely is, but so is not knowing enough. And most of the comment section would shit their pants if I smashed their views and opinions of "reality" with cold hard facts.
Prince will forever be A LEGEND!!! He didn’t follow fame like many others followed. He was his own person, RAW AND REAL and killed it on a guitar!!!!!! We love you PRINCE!!!!

Prince didn’t like how the music & the music industry changed . He’s old school that new shit wasn’t his thing . Respect that. He’s a huge inspiration for artists & if those artists really did see him as a role model/inspiration there should be no hate or hard feelings towards his opinions. Prince knew what he was talking about
bjetsz I know that’s right miss lady. You took those fucking words right out of my mouth. If he was alive today he’s put these talentless lil kids in their place. Prince was a classic man who stood by his morals and he respected good music.
Music today sucks too,people in hollywood only use people on their early 20s to mid 20s only made songs with a very bad role model and sing songs bout rape,sex,violence,money,and desperate to be famous
@@osahju914 Gaga has got vocal chops, I’m not denying that, it’s just the stuff that she chooses to put out that I just can’t get down with. As a great man once said, “Different strokes for different folks,” I guess 🤷🏾♂️
I'm with the other person asking why he was there then?🤷♀️ If he showed just to get paid, that's as disingenuous as he feels the purpose of the song that he refuses to sing is.🧐
I tried to buy tickets so many times when he came to Oakland. But every time they announced they were on sale, they would sell out within 20 minutes. Legendary. So happy you got a chance to see him. I know you had a great time🙂
I loved Prince and his music! Just real, authentic and genuine. A true one of a kind. Was at an LA Coliseum concert in the early 80’s where the idiots standing in front of the stage threw stuff at him and his band when they were preforming. Was before he got big, and I’ll have to say he got the last laugh because he went on to become an international phenomenon! RIP Prince!
