    I started listening to him every chance I got and again I was like daaaamn!

      I wont take anything from prince but as a guitar player, he does nothing for me that makes me go "oh shit". Example- if you played prince in a lineup of 100 guitar players, i personally wouldnt be able to pin point him like i could dimebag, SRV or Clapton. No hate just stating my opinion.

    A master musician, who was kinda somewhere between Miles Davis, Hendrix, P-Funk, and moments of Van Halen. I guess the world could not contain him here too long. He may one of a handful of humans that were too good for this world.

    The industry tried to ignore him commercially when he became independent, so a great part of his career work was not known by masses for some time. But when he resurfaced and entered into negotiations much of the work that was not known surfaced and he began to do shows and appearances on major awards shows. He began to showcase his skills commercially again, but there’s so much regarding his skills that’s unwitnessed, he passed before he had a chance to show it all. He was about to do just that with all the instruments and do so independently. This would have sealed him in the eyes of the general public as the greatest all around musician ever. A part of me feels they didn’t want that.
