What a smart smart man the way he tells these people hey fool I cant sing because your killing me with that dang smoke quit it already. God is love baby He really is...
I mean even thought everyone saying he should mind his business and worry about himself. I rather his positive message than most mainstream rappers today telling kids to do drugs, become gang bangers and telling females that being half dressed and over sexual is female empowerment. It shows that he actually cared about his fans with that tough love.
No artist comes out and explicitly says “do drugs”. It’s a lifestyle that Artist live, whether you follow in those footsteps; doesn’t fall on the artist.
Not a big fan of this era or period, but an example of Prince leading by example. No tatts. No smoking. That kind of thing. He was always about about his fans, listeners, anyone really, being, best.
@Tony Exodus was like a pre-Emancipation, Emancipation. I just didn't like it, both. I have a few memories from the Exodus through NPS - Glam Slam West release party for Exodus, big huge banner over a table in the restaurant, with like expanded art not on the album. A few 'The Good Life' Miles samples in house tapes handed to me by insider club and Prince employees with color copy inserts. NPS - Key Club, Prince driving by in a limo filming the fan line. Probably in his vault! Prince at Leno 'Come On', I snuck backstage, Prince strolled, no, swaggered and strutted by, too cool. But the era... MEH.
@Tony I give props to your views and experiences, Prince's albums can be very personal and to some, certain albums, eras, periods, are very close to their hearts, while others are the total opposite. It's to be expected in most art-forms. Idetrimental Whats interesting for me with Emancipation is how much I WANTED to love it and praised every track, said it was the new SOTT... silly me! Few years later and I felt bamboozled, it's mostly awful! What was I thinking! But that's just ME! :-p I was caught up in the hype, once that faded I said oh no, it's Prince... compromising after going indie. Rainbow Children was him just going I'm doing what I want, I aint trying hard. That, I really enjoy about the album. I agree in restrospect, Rave 2K was an obvious attempt at doing what Santana did with the amazing success of 'Smooth', but it fell flat, in part by him trying to hard and the industry changing under his boots.
@Tony Yes dreadful! The Emancipation album artwork, what was Steve Parke thinking. A fantastically talented illustrator, painter, but when it came to actual graphic design, typography, art direction… wooboy. And the era photos, short geeky hairsyle, the mainstrem R&B goatie, the outfits sucked. I remember seeing that one CD single with the lime green outfit, I was baffled. He kept wearing the flimsy bellbottom pants until the end. Talk abiout style crisis! When just a few years ago from the time, he was fully tailored with the most amazing well cut, well tailored suits, outfits and shirts, kickass hair, cat was on fire! In my view, Prince just let Mayte dictate or contribute to what he should style himself as. And it continued into Rave 2K. Manuela just reinforced his funk-JW-preacher look, tried to make him elegant, and to an extent, succeed, but Prince was already elegant at Parade. I can go on and on. 3121 still baffles me. And to mention Parade, I think Prince went ‘Hollywood’ in a fun tongue in cheek way back in 85-86, making fun of his movie success. But by 3121, Planet Earth, Prince went ‘kissup Hollywood’, most likely at the influenc of Manuela’s desire to rub shoulders in those circles. You had a vision going back in the 80s into the 2Ks, I didn’t, but I did get gradually frustrated at his lack of leading, of uncompromsing vision and style and originality. Each album after Emancipaion was that for me. Although I did like and still do, most of Rave 2k, I kept chasing, hoping, live, Prince would also push the envelope again. Challenge his audiences. And I witnessed a few post 96 moments of brilliance on stage, they were far and few after Gold Expeirnce. Yes, weird, innovative, mysterious, absolully. I’ll add experimental, next level approaches to what HIS music, his SOUND retaining, and there were hints by 2014. I thought that by AOA and the subsequent last albums he was starting to enter that in a new era, he looked freaky again, unique, strange, and almost like a new Gold Era look, even brought out the gold symbol guitar. Ah, guitar. I often have imagined if he, instead of going new jack R&B rap, had just done a ‘9-5’ total electric guiar, blues funk MPLS sound rock guitar album to just solidify that after Nude. Then, a full on search for the most beautiful songwriting and lovesongs to contrast it. Lolita, I remember that, I just was baffled, and he was just being a ‘celebrity’ rather than distancing him, he was a people’s genius artist. Sigh. You’d think he’d see his future with Miles. Do I still love the guy, still do and miss him, no one is perfect, but Prince pushed that envolope too!
I really looked up to Prince for being anti-drugs, but after his passing, it turns out he was being hypocritical. It doesn't mean the message is wrong, and I don't judge him as I'm hypocritical too, but it was very sad for me to learn he passed of an addiction to drugs. I'm glad it wasn't illicit drugs like cocaine, but I wish he would have listened to his own words a bit more. He should have listened to The Holy River the night he passed! Or The Love We Make. Put down the pills, put down the bottle!
Seems like you can't differentiate art from reality. You make it seem like Prince didn't have problems like everyone else. He did more with his life than most people passing judgement on his death.
In what way is that hypocritical ??? He just warned other people of the negative effects of drugs and alcohol, trying to let them seek other better ways. That's very good !
@@NOWtheband Well he just notices that there is a lot of smoke in the room. He doesn't like it, and this is the way he tries to stop people from smoking there... I doesn't give a fuck about your smoking behaviour outside :)
Well he's there to perform and he has the right not to be in a room filled with smoke so this is his way of telling the people to please stop smoking because the s*** is bothering me you can smoke outside all you want but let's have the room not filled with smoke please!!! 💜💜⚘✌

Sometimes he was very strict!
and then again He could also deside out of the blue 2 put a girl smoking a sigaret on His album cover. (D&P-1991)

He wasn’t no goodie two shoes neither, he spoke the truth while being cool
No one 💜💜 Prince more than me but he was a drug user and i don’t blame him one bit.he was a master musician.

No, I can't feel you tonight. I paid money to hear you sing songs and play music, not rant on a subject. That's what a lot of the fans be like.
I agree.

Any meaningful artist will say what's on their mind...Prince said his
@@arnoldoosterveld - I know, It's evident from the words used contained within His speech.

Well his hands popped the pills 💊 😮
