Shelia E is music royalty. Her Dad is a superb drummer who taught her, her godfather is Tieto Puente, her uncle is Alajandro Escovedo. Many in the Escovedo family were pioneers in music. She played with everybody including Prince.
Sheila E. and Prince were the perfect male/female counterparts of each other. Both multi-instrumentalist prodigies. Sheila E is such a musical genius to me.
Shelia E Thank you so much for being who you are, what you have done ,what you are doing now. I admire everything about you. There will never be another Shelia E 💜💜💜💜😘
I really like her attitude. She seems genuine to me. I hope she can do whatever it takes to encourage music as an art is kept alive. It all starts with an instrument and practise. I admire her stamina to. Nice interview.
Sheila E. is so intelligent and wise and grounded. Look for a new wave of appreciation for her. She's always been a star, and here she shines with potential. She'd be great in a movie, and I can't help thinking a collaboration with Rita Coolidge would be amazing!!!
In the past i was in a abusive relationship from 17-19 years. At 19 i finally chose for myself and broke free. When i was 20, i first heard Prince' music. I truly felt liberated from the pain left from the relationship. I'd also like to thank Sheilae e, for her wonderful music. She is a strong woman and i am truly grateful for the music she makes. Greetings from Holland. San Roses.
Sheila is a legend & as far as I'm concerned she is and will remain the greatest female percussionist of my lifetime. I don't remember how.... but years & years ago I started a Lionel Richie fan club and at one point told him she was going to break off on her own because of her talent. Watching her banging on those congas is life-changing... then the lights go out, she grabs something and ALL YOU SEE ARE THOSE STICKS GLOWING AND FLYING and YOUR HEART Races. For more than 30 years I have followed her and god I can't speak enough about how wonderful, personable, and sincerely genuine she is. I sat next to her on the bench in LB at a celebrity basketball game and she was just so cool, and she is little too. And Prince I can not talk about because there is too much i need to say. we did not deserve his genius. He was a GIFT that wasn't cherished
So what was cat, mayte, Manuela Andy and all the others he probably didnt look at in broad day light? Just thinking about your Commit....he just sang with her unless she had A secret no one knows about. Cat as well.
Just like you said,the late great Larry King,"What a delight"she is.She's well spoken,very talented and so knowledgeable and experienced.Wonderful interview!
You are one BEAUTIFUL WOMAN, both in and out and in every way!!! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent with us all, the great energy you put out, and all your hard work!!! Miss “The GREAT Artist” too and always will. Love ya Shiela E. ❤️🙏🏻
Very humble lady especially to have that sort of status in the music industry. I love watching her playing, she has that special kind of something about her❤️
The song is really sweet & goes back to when they were both just kids. A love like that (even a friendship) only comes along once in a lifetime. Even though now there's pain since He's gone, the ride was phenomenal & worth it. The song means a lot even to me because I was a kid when I first saw/heard him in '77 (not '78) playing/writing/singing on his cousins album (Minneapolis Genius) j& I have the album. Seeing him on the cover of For You......then Prince & the first time on American Bandstand, I was in Love? as a kid (not even a teenager). In concert years later when he said "I Love You too Baby" (He actually heard me I was so close & the arena was quiet during the intro to Purple Rain). He captured my heart for Always! PRINCELUV4EVER!!!
"There's 100's of songs that I recorded with him that I've not heard yet" Sheila E. WOW!!!! can't wait till his music in the vault starts being released 🤟💜
Sheila E will always be stunning and a super talent 100 years from now people still be listening to Prince I love you Sheila whose beauty is matched by none
Sheila E is one of my favourite musicians. Prince used to say on stage " not bad for a girl" . It's amazing what she's achieved. As a matter of fact she is one of the top ten drummers of all time. In fact I remain thankful that she played princes lovesexy at Wembley in 88. What a role model for young female musicians.
Her father has to be one of the proudest Dad's in the world! Sheila E & Prince are from my and a misunderstood underappreciated generation, Civil Rights War babies. Respectful intelligent revolutionary's. Forever lovable!
Fantástica entrevista con una Sheila E espléndida dando unas respuestas que me ha permitido conocerla mucho mejor, gracias por compartirlo con nosotros Larry
Shiela is so beautiful every time i see her she’s expressing 💜🧚🏾♀️🧚🏾♀️ Her infatuation with prince she’s so into prince well she did spend 🧚🏾♀️ Many many years around prince you can see she’s a huge fan of prince Im sure she would have loved more out of her and prince relationship 🧚🏾♀️ Love you girl and I know how hard it was to hold your desire around prince
One of the things I always appreciated about Larry is you could tell whether he was interested in talking to somebody. Here he is fully into listening to what she has to say, and why not? She's got a lot worth saying. That look on his face at 9:20 is the look of someone just content.
This was a wonderful interview and hearing her talking about Prince, among other things, from an inside perspective was fascinating. She's classy and well spoken, and IMO? A better role model than someone like Cardi B. or Katy Perry. Good show!
PRINCE was a great performer and entertained the best..soo missed and in his life ,things just got messed up and everybody goes through tough times once in a awhile,don't you think..but,help could have been needed and given..Prince was a legend at what he attempted ..Prince played the guitar and sang so terrific ..never forgotten in our lifetime..always be remembered and so cool
I always thought Sheila E. was so cool and different. I saw the music video Glamorous Life. I saw how she was playing the drums, and I was mesmerized by this woman who plays the drums. They call it percussion. She is a talented female Latina celebrity and musician in her own right.
Prince put music first, b4 anything or anybody. It was hard 4 any woman to constantly compete with that. So, much respect 2 Sheila. An absolute great talent...period.!!!
So much RESPECT for this *powerhouse* of a woman! She is such a *LADY* + my goodness, she looks AH-MAZING at age 60!!! ( _This is how you grow older "gracefully" ladies, by taking care of your body + your diet, and NOT by Botox, Silicone, + Plastic surgery!_ )
Sheila you really should check out Nandi Bushell the 11 yr old little girl from the uk. She’s a phenomenal drummer and also plays guitar, base, keyboards and saxophone. I think Sheila would be the perfect role model for this little girl. She has already caught the eye of many famous musicians. And her appreciation for music is infectious. She’s a ray of sunshine ☀️
Apparently, Prince stopped talking to Sheila and they had not spoken for over 2 years after she was asked not to mention their relationship in her book. She is also fibbing here, as she says something very different in her book about when their relationship ended, it was due to not only changes within the band but he going off with women behind her back. Prince was never loyal to one woman, he was a player..
Sheila E.... A master musician, artist, and teacher. What advice would give someone who wants to enter the music business ...her answer, don't! Often the public doesn't consider the open generosity required for artists. It takes a huge amount of energy, spiritual grounding, and endurance to be authentic in giving. The drummer must be attentive, listening, and responsive to others or they are playing only for themselves. Master artist and teacher. Inspiration for all people called to create art.
She is such a wonderful woman I have met her a couple of times and always nice always makes you feel like you're the only person that she's talking to a very classy young lady 😍😁
When she was a little girl, of course, before she became famous, sometimes she used to come and play congas with us rumberos at Sproul Plaza on U.C. Berkeley campus.
You can still see the pain in her face from the loss . She is a legend .
Shelia E is music royalty. Her Dad is a superb drummer who taught her, her godfather is Tieto Puente, her uncle is Alajandro Escovedo. Many in the Escovedo family were pioneers in music. She played with everybody including Prince.
Totally agreed. Very talented family.
didnt play with the goat mj
@@AC-mp7cx all 3 together with janet on a song would have been too much to be shown live - the crowd would pass out everyone of all ages
Agreed
Sheila E. is music royalty.... Exactly 👏
Sheila has aged like fine wine. Legend in the music industry.
She is classy.
Yes she has. She's prettier now than when she 1st. started in music.
Omg she Is so gorgeous.
she neds a makeover. hair color is too heavy.
What a lovely person Sheila E is. I could listen to her stories for hours. Such a kind and gentle soul.
Yes, I like how chill she is. Her voice is calming.
Sheila E. and Prince were the perfect male/female counterparts of each other. Both multi-instrumentalist prodigies. Sheila E is such a musical genius to me.
talent isnt measured by ability to play many instruments
Nope
Such a humble and beautiful woman, with a career, talent, and love for music like not many. Young people learn...
Bad woman right there... she could play every instrument on stage🎤🎷🎸🎺🎹🥁
She is so humble and a straightforward person. I adore her. Thank you for sharing this. God bless.🙏🍀❤️
Love her & she’s still gorgeous!!! Miss Prince;(
Shelia E
Thank you so much for being who you are, what you have done ,what you are doing now. I admire everything about you. There will never be another Shelia E 💜💜💜💜😘
There will not be another Shelia E💜💜💜😘
I really like her attitude. She seems genuine to me. I hope she can do whatever it takes to encourage music as an art is kept alive. It all starts with an instrument and practise. I admire her stamina to. Nice interview.
Agree,the music business needs more like her.
She is still stunning. Still amazing (see her tribute to Prince) musically.
Sheila E. is so intelligent and wise and grounded. Look for a new wave of appreciation for her. She's always been a star, and here she shines with potential. She'd be great in a movie, and I can't help thinking a collaboration with Rita Coolidge would be amazing!!!
In the past i was in a abusive relationship from 17-19 years.

Love me some Sheila E. Ain't no other like her, she's beautiful n her music is a part of history 💜💜💜💚❤
Prince was a one in a original entertainer so unique in his profession; He will be missed

She is beautiful and just down to earth. loved her since the 80's.
Did y'all see Sheila's reaction when Larry said Prince name, she gasped. I felt that. She loves him, really loves him. They are soulmates.
Yes , she gasped !
So what was cat, mayte,
Manuela Andy and all the others he probably didnt look at in broad day light?
Just thinking about your
Commit....he just sang with her unless she had
A secret no one knows about. Cat as well.
She was really affected in that moment.
Always had a crush on Sheila E., love that woman!!!
Me too.
HAD??!?! I still do and always will!!!!!
She seems gifted, classy and I love her speaking voice
The music industry needs to create more outlet platforms to keep music alive and important in people’s lives.
I love this woman. Classy, family oriented, grateful, and super talented.
She's got a beautiful soul. That's why they loved eachother. Woman with class
She's got great stage persona...off camera she's a bully !
Just like you said,the late great Larry King,"What a delight"she is.She's well spoken,very talented and so knowledgeable and experienced.Wonderful interview!
I absolutely love her. What a beautiful soul.
You are one BEAUTIFUL WOMAN, both in and out and in every way!!! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent with us all, the great energy you put out, and all your hard work!!! Miss “The GREAT Artist” too and always will. Love ya Shiela E. ❤️🙏🏻

Prince was unique. He was the best.

PRINCELUV4EVER!!!
I have loved his music since he made Purple Rain
his mid 80s albums were good
What a sweet, wonderful person she is! I felt that already yesterday when we were at a fantastic concert here in the Netherlands!
Never like how Larry King interrupts when a guest is answering one of his questions. Really wanted 2 hear Sheila's dialog on Karen Carpenter (08:10).
"There's 100's of songs that I recorded with him that I've not heard yet"
Sheila E.
WOW!!!! can't wait till his music in the vault starts being released 🤟💜
Seriously!!!!! His archivist said that he has enough to release 35 songs a year......for 2,500 YEARS!!!!!!!!
@@jeffffro7674 what are they waiting for😩😄🕊
Would love to hear new Prince music.
WOW.....and wonder "who" has THAT catalogue?????? Interesting....🤔
Yeah...right
Excellent Interview Shelia E. Much success to you. Beautiful and beautiful song Boy Meets Girl - loved the strings !!!! Thank You Shelia E.
I am so glad to have had the pleasure to hear Sheila I learned so much from her Thank you

I love her. She is so beautiful inside and out. Also R.I.P. Larry King

Me too! People forget that Karen played.
Beth Mills I did.
Well apparently Larry too dumb to be aware of ANY other ladies playing drums!
Such a gorgeous woman! Bless her! I hope she can one day release that music and share with the world! 💜
This woman is so classy and talented. A bright bright light in the world.
Shiela is so beautiful every time i see her she’s expressing 💜🧚🏾♀️🧚🏾♀️
Her infatuation with prince she’s so into prince well she did spend 🧚🏾♀️

Love you girl and I know how hard it was to hold your desire around prince
you are so right that she is so beautiful and respectful
Her eyes are watering during this video. She was still grieving.
She is a great musician and a great lady also and has had a great career and I hope she is doing fine.
Sheila!! Sheila!! You made me want to be musical and strong. Thank you for sharing your Love.
I got her autograph. She wrote backwards and I had to look in a mirror to read it. 100% unique individual.
One of the things I always appreciated about Larry is you could tell whether he was interested in talking to somebody. Here he is fully into listening to what she has to say, and why not? She's got a lot worth saying. That look on his face at 9:20 is the look of someone just content.
SHEILA .. !! I LOVE YOUUUUU..!!!

I always thought Sheila E. was so cool and different. I saw the music video Glamorous Life. I saw how she was playing the drums, and I was mesmerized by this woman who plays the drums. They call it percussion. She is a talented female Latina celebrity and musician in her own right.

Be on time. Be courteous. Be respectful.
Great interview! Shelia is awesome!
Sheila E came from the family of great musician & music partner of Prince. What a great talent she is! May 30,2021
So much RESPECT for this *powerhouse* of a woman! She is such a *LADY* + my goodness, she looks AH-MAZING at age 60!!!
( _This is how you grow older "gracefully" ladies, by taking care of your body + your diet, and NOT by Botox, Silicone, + Plastic surgery!_ )
So classy and super talented.
