u guys asked really good questions and touched on topics that made it easy for Tamar to speak about Prince without being guarded. your knowledge base makes it easier for ALL of your guests to open up
TheTamarDavis, what are your thoughts on the rumors that Manuela divorced Prince, because of the amount of time he was spending with you? Regardless, I really enjoyed the artistry you added to 3121. I have been looking for your album, but I can't find it online. I can't wait for your book.
my favorite part is how suprised she was on how Prince inadvertently worked with her to learn himself..he was in the moment because he wanted grow. Even if he wasn't sure..he went with his spirit. Love that.
Great interview guys! I loved it. Tamar is so sweet. Thank you Tamar for sharing your time with Prince with all of us. I know it must have been emotional for you. 💜🙏🕊
It was Nancy. I actually decline many interviews because the Purple Family is now wanting us to exploit it at all and I respect who he still is to us all. But they made this interview very welcioming and not gossipy ya know? So thanks for listening.
Love 3121!!!! Black Sweat, Lolita, incense and Candles, and Love are my favorites. The song on 3121 that I absolutely love the most is "Beautiful, Loved and Blessed"...... the song is the montra that I use to keep my 9 year old daughter's spirit up when the kids in school are mean to her. It is one of her favorite Prince songs. Love❤❤❤ this interview with Tamar
I always say how much I love your interviews, but the stories and emotions in this one are so deep. Tamar is awesome and talented and the fans appreciate the insight that she shared. Beautiful, loved and blessed indeed! #longstoryshort
Well I do not mean to say that other interviews are not good. But most interviews are a repeat of what we hear a lot prince the great musician, the guitar-player. It felt as Tamar had a strong spiritual connection with Prince. She gave us Prince the homie, Prince the friend. I loved hearing about some of the teachings. Prince's negotiating skills. What living in the present actually meant to Prince.The open ness about the album she made and what happened around that. Him being angry with her about Wendy Williams.The pictures she shared She is so open how she talks. When you really think about it she unveiled a lot of things that always stayed a mystery no matter how many times others talked about it. You never quite got how it actualy worked. She humanized him mor for me.This is just a quick reply.
Thank you! I wanted to say the same & include all your same thoughts below too. She described him as a friend & showed us his true kindness. I spontaneously cried several times & laughed so hard other times. She is real. I can’t wait for her book & album, esp ‘Red Headed Stepchild’.
Wonderful. Tamar is so real and beautiful. Love hearing about Brit Awards. And Prince's guidance. I know we all say this everyday but I miss him so much!
I remember watching Prince at the Brit awards and what as usual with him, it was mesmerising performance. When Prince gave Tamar a kiss on the cheek, I remember thinking, how sweet is that and how lucky is she. Great interview with Tamar and what a lovely lady. By the way, he must have changed his opinion about Wendy Williams because she was invited to PP and sat on the stage whilst Prince performed. Thanks, guys, really enjoyed this. For the record, Black Sweat and Te Amo Corazon are my favs from 3121
Maybe Wendy did okay by Tamar. I can't find that Tamar interview online anywhere though. If anybody has a link, please put it up. I did see it b4 and I think it went well.
Skygazer, I was thinking the same thing about Wendy Williams. "I don't like her huh" Years later you arrange to meet her and turn around and invite her and Kevin to Paisley Park. She still gossips on her talk show just like she did on WBLS.
Thank you guys. This video looks so beautiful on the screen. The whole interview was great. It was so interesting to hear about the things Prince taught Tamar, how spiritual he was and she is too and how he did everything so late. I see now why they say if he wants something done, he just makes it happen and he lived in the moment. I captured all of screenshots. The pictures are beautiful. The screenshot of the NPG lists all of the people in the picture. Excellent job.
Thanks for another great interview. Loved how open she was. She really gave a sense of Prince as a person with her stories. And btw 3121 is one of my favorite albums idk how Prince fans wouldn’t be familiar with 3121 that’s crazy to me.
3121 the first time I heard it..I was like OMG..he's back..When Tamar must have joined him ,he was inspired by the unkown engergy he was exuding. The dymistification of life is more endearing when you take chances. I frew up watcing the commeupance of Prince's career. Being that I grew up in the 70's..When he won the grammy's,I believe it was back in 1985.one of things he said " For some of us Life is Death without adventure" I lived by that.
Fab interview...Luv Tamar..Great to hear from her. Her book is going to be interesting about Prince’s later years...her sharing his years as the spiritual person he was at that time😊
I rmb the Brit Awards when she sung Purple rain with Prince. She was so focused on him and had this absolutely beautiful smile. He kissed her on the cheek. At that moment i felt that they had an absolutely respectful love for one another. You knew there was nothing shady about what they shared. They were true friends who just really sound good together and respected the talent btwn them.
Great to see Tamar again. I love her work with Prince! She has a great voice. Beautiful, Loved and Blessed is a beautiful song. Honestly, I have yet to hear it again since that sad day in April 2016. 😔 Wish you much success, Tamar! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Long story short, I’ll have to finish this interview tomorrow. It’s enjoyable to hear and watch. 😊 And yes, I know and love the 3121 album. My daughter and I have tattoos commemorating this album as well as our bond. It’s the most impressionable Prince album for her. 💜 I’m sure it had nothing to do with my playing it repeatedly, for days on end. 😏
Brings out the BEAUTY of PRINCE PERSONALITY HE LIVED HIMSELF HE LOVED AND RESPECTED MUCH AND HE ALWAYS HAD HIS OWN PLAN OF WORK AND PRINCE KNEW EXACTLY HOW HE WAS GOING TO EXECUTE HIMSELF I HAVE COME TO KNOW PRINCE EVEN MORE NOT ONLY WITH YOUR VIDEO LOL ❤️ BUT WITH ALL OF THE MANY VIDEOS AND EVERYONE SAY ALL THE BEAUTIFUL THINGS ABOUT PRINCE ALL THE SAME YET DIFFERENT EXPERIENCES AWWW- -SOME GODLY SPIRIT WAS ALWAYS IN HIS INNERMOST SPIRIT 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
That was an amazing interview it took me two days to listen to it because I didn’t want to miss a word!! I look forward to purchasing Tamar’s bundle CD and book!!
For everyone saying "how could she not know who Prince was". She said that all that she knew of him was PR and how (I guess) the media played them against each other. But, remember she was a little kid during the era that she mentioned and considering the lyrical content of his early work; her parents may have been strict about what she was exposed to and could listen to. Many parents were back then, I don't know about now. It was also easier to control what your kids saw and heard back then (no Internet or social media). Just the tv (a lot less channels), radio (far less station options) and magazines. Ijs.
Casey and Kim, Another great interview. You do a fantastic job connecting with folks and bringing to the Purple Family insight that is so helpful in continuing to keep Prince's legacy alive while learning more about him at the same time. This was a great interview and Tamar was lovely and provided wonderful insight into who Prince was off stage which we seldom get a chance to hear about. Thank you so much. Can't wait to see who your next interviewee is :)
Really fascinating interviews. Always looking forward to the next. Thanks @caseyrain and @kimcamilia #longstoryshort 😁 @thetamardavis is a very good storyteller.
I’m the hugest skeptic don’t believe in any gods but I truly believe there was something supernatural about Prince ... too many people share that same vibe when he was around them..
I have such a crush on Kim Camilia! sorry... Anyway, it's super great that Tamar is getting this together. It's going to be a great missing piece from that era and Tamar deserves to be heard. Great of you two to get her on.
Prince loved artists to whom he chose to be close. It was not always sexual. In some strange way, I think he loved Tamar and wanted her around all the time. When the time was fulfilled, he moved on to the next thing. Oddly he wanted her to meet Andy Allo two years after not speaking with Tamar. Perhaps he wanted her opinion and/or approval. He didn't trust himself, therefore certain people gave him a sense of knowing what would serve him best. Mayte said it best, when you are in, you are in, but once you are out of the circle, it's tough to get in again. If Prince lost his trust in an individual, it was a wrap. It was somewhat manipulative but it was his way of keeping those he loved, close, although he constantly feared betrayal. If you were loved by Prince, it is a love that you would never soon forget. How blessed for them. Oh how I wish I knew what it meant to be loved by someone of Prince's caliber, for my talent and being. It is what I deeply yearn. The only problem being, it would end. "All good things they say, never last."
PRINCE DIDN'T NEED VALIDATION FROM ANYONE IF HE CHOSE YOU BETTA BELIEVE IN HIS UNCONDITIONAL LOVE TO HELP YOU COME INTO YOUR OWN BUT WHOEVER HE CHOOSES HE EXPECTS YOU TO BE WILLING TO DO THE WORK 👍🏽 I BELIEVE PRINCE LEARNED EARLY ON IN HIS LIFE WHO HE WAS NO VALIDATIONS DID PRINCE EVER NEED
Hi guys, I listen to you from time to time. I only get a chance when I'm not trying to change my circumstances lol. I love your show. My question is in regards to the song "Poor Little Bastard" which brings me tears and breaks my heart because although I've never had a chance to meet him, or see him which I regret deeply. I would like to know the album if there is or was one. Have you heard it and what did you think? GOD Bless
Black Sweat, Get On The Boat, Love, Beautiful Loved & Blessed, Fury, Satisfied; all super jams from the 3121 album. How R we gonna get Milk & Honey released?
I think that album is more of a whole album than individual songs but sad to say he was much more popular across the pond than he was here in the states... like really no comparison
Awesome Interview. I love Tamar. Looking forward to the release of Milk & Honey and her book. She has such a powerful lovely voice. I listen to 3121 all the time. And yes she is so damn SEXY. #NPG4EVER #MUSICMATTERS #THEAPRILSNOWHASNOTMELTED
Tamar is a beautiful woman with a wonderful voice, but if Prince told her that her hair and nose resembled his mother's, he wasn't telling the truth. Maybe he was up to his usual headgames. .
Thanks for watching, all! Let us know what your favorite part of the interview was!
u guys asked really good questions and touched on topics that made it easy for Tamar to speak about Prince without being guarded. your knowledge base makes it easier for ALL of your guests to open up
Marcus they shocked me with their knowledge that I didn’t want to stop chatting with them. Have to leave the remaining full details in Memoir lol
That's really kind of you to say Marcus - glad you enjoyed the interview!
TheTamarDavis, what are your thoughts on the rumors that Manuela divorced Prince, because of the amount of time he was spending with you?
Regardless, I really enjoyed the artistry you added to 3121. I have been looking for your album, but I can't find it online.
I can't wait for your book.

Nice interview. Her talking about Prince as the true artist, a professional business man, and as a person, makes you feel closer to him.
21:05 Prince ALWAYS knows what he’s doing, even if it is spontaneous. His brain should’ve been preserved. Musical genius.
Another great interview! Black Sweat" video made me buy the 3121 album. I love it from start to finish!
Great interview guys! I loved it. Tamar is so sweet. Thank you Tamar for sharing your time with Prince with all of us. I know it must have been emotional for you. 💜🙏🕊
It was Nancy. I actually decline many interviews because the Purple Family is now wanting us to exploit it at all and I respect who he still is to us all. But they made this interview very welcioming and not gossipy ya know? So thanks for listening.
OMG...anyone who doesn't know 3121 may need to have their Purple Army card revoked. 😂
I agree lol. It was a shock to me too
Love 3121!!!! Black Sweat, Lolita, incense and Candles, and Love are my favorites. The song on 3121 that I absolutely love the most is "Beautiful, Loved and Blessed"...... the song is the montra that I use to keep my 9 year old daughter's spirit up when the kids in school are mean to her. It is one of her favorite Prince songs.
Love❤❤❤ this interview with Tamar
Excellent interview. Loved how she was totally blown away by you having her demo. Great reaction.
I always say how much I love your interviews, but the stories and emotions in this one are so deep. Tamar is awesome and talented and the fans appreciate the insight that she shared. Beautiful, loved and blessed indeed! #longstoryshort
God bless you. Thank you so, so much for listening.
Amazing interview....Tamar is feeling like we do.....we will hurt anyone who talks sh*t about Prince!!!! Thanks for the interview guys!!
The video was great and her friendship with prince sounds amazing I am sad I never got to meet him
I feel this is the best interview so far. Tamar really gave a very unique perspective on Prince. She is lovely. I cannot wait until her book arrives
The best so far? WOW, what a compliment!!! Thank you so much!

Wonderful. Tamar is so real and beautiful. Love hearing about Brit Awards. And Prince's guidance. I know we all say this everyday but I miss him so much!
I was in the audience for the SNL performance. :)
Were you really? Awwww cool. Great memories.
I remember watching Prince at the Brit awards and what as usual with him, it was mesmerising performance. When Prince gave Tamar a kiss on the cheek, I remember thinking, how sweet is that and how lucky is she. Great interview with Tamar and what a lovely lady.

So many beautiful songs on 3121, hard to pick one....Beautiful, Loved and Blessed maybe....
You guys are clearly Prince experts and really enjoyable to watch.
Shes definitely one of my favs of his proteges
Hard 2 believe someone can be so isolated that they had not real clue about one the greatest artist 2 ever live. That is shocking on many levels.
Thank you guys. This video looks so beautiful on the screen. The whole interview was great. It was so interesting to hear about the things Prince taught Tamar, how spiritual he was and she is too and how he did everything so late.

3121 the first time I heard it..I was like OMG..he's back..When Tamar must have joined him ,he was inspired by the unkown engergy he was exuding. The dymistification of life is more endearing when you take chances. I frew up watcing the commeupance of Prince's career. Being that I grew up in the 70's..When he won the grammy's,I believe it was back in 1985.one of things he said " For some of us Life is Death without adventure" I lived by that.

Totally enjoyed this interview. Great!👌💜💜💜
the both of u are a God send. Thank u SO much for ALL of your Prince related videos!!!
Long story short, I’ll have to finish this interview tomorrow. It’s enjoyable to hear and watch. 😊
And yes, I know and love the 3121 album.
My daughter and I have tattoos commemorating this album as well as our bond. It’s the most impressionable Prince album for her. 💜 I’m sure it had nothing to do with my playing it repeatedly, for days on end. 😏
To make a short story long...great interview!
Brings out the BEAUTY of PRINCE PERSONALITY
HE LIVED HIMSELF HE LOVED AND RESPECTED MUCH AND HE ALWAYS HAD HIS OWN PLAN OF WORK AND PRINCE KNEW EXACTLY HOW HE WAS GOING TO EXECUTE HIMSELF
I HAVE COME TO KNOW PRINCE EVEN MORE NOT ONLY WITH YOUR VIDEO LOL ❤️ BUT WITH ALL OF THE MANY VIDEOS AND EVERYONE SAY ALL THE BEAUTIFUL THINGS ABOUT PRINCE ALL THE SAME YET DIFFERENT EXPERIENCES
AWWW- -SOME
GODLY SPIRIT WAS ALWAYS IN HIS INNERMOST SPIRIT 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Dee Carter Thank you so much for the kind words - we are so happy you are enjoying our interview series - "by the fans, for the fans!" 💖
Really fascinating interviews. Always looking forward to the next. Thanks @caseyrain and @kimcamilia #longstoryshort 😁 @thetamardavis is a very good storyteller.
When she tries to hold back the tears at 16:53 I couldn't hold back mine. We miss you P! :( #Prince4Ever
Wow this is a really beautiful interview,I love it and I love You guys and Tamars Enthusiasm and it gave me so much insight!🤍🤍🤍
Truly a great interview.
I’m the hugest skeptic don’t believe in any gods but I truly believe there was something supernatural about Prince ... too many people share that same vibe when he was around them..
Milk n Honey is a great album. I wonder if they can get it released now. That would be nice.
"The Dance". Maybe one of his best but just maybe because it's so...... hard to choose!!!
Beautiful, Loved & Blessed
I love this album, favourite tracks are Incense and Candles, The Word and Beautiful, Loved and Blessed.
All great songs!
Beautiful interview and memories! R.I.P. 💜
PRINCE WAS ALWAYS PROMOTING OTHERS AND LAY BACK IN THE BACKGROUND HE WAS ALREADY KNOWN FOR HIS ABILITIES ONE THING FOR SURE HE RECOGNIZED TALENT 💜💜💜
Awesome video and interview!
Great interview. Tamar = beautiful, loved and blessed.
Thank you For this interview! Love Tamar!
I needed this
Wow that was a really great interview! Loved it!
Thanks somuch you guys do a great job I wish we could meet up at Paisley some day ... it’s on my list!!... keep on keeping on!
That would be so cool to have each band on one tour

Beautiful interview ... very emotional... fave songs off 3121? Love is def up there for me & Incense & Candles.. but its a great album!👌🏻💜
Gorgeous lady with a FANTASTIC voice
Great interview, love Milk & Honey
3121 March 1 ,21 is just around the corner I WONDER WHAT IT WILL BRING ..
I have such a crush on Kim Camilia! sorry... Anyway, it's super great that Tamar is getting this together. It's going to be a great missing piece from that era and Tamar deserves to be heard. Great of you two to get her on.
Can't believe she didnt know who Wendy & Lisa were!
Prince loved artists to whom he chose to be close. It was not always sexual. In some strange way, I think he loved Tamar and wanted her around all the time. When the time was fulfilled, he moved on to the next thing. Oddly he wanted her to meet Andy Allo two years after not speaking with Tamar. Perhaps he wanted her opinion and/or approval.

Prince probably tried to protect Tamar by not releasing her album under the Sony label.
Hi guys, I listen to you from time to time. I only get a chance when I'm not trying to change my circumstances lol.
I love your show. My question is in regards to the song "Poor Little Bastard" which brings me tears and breaks my heart because although I've never had a chance to meet him, or see him which I regret deeply. I would like to know the album if there is or was one. Have you heard it and what did you think?
GOD Bless
The entire album
Black Sweat, Get On The Boat, Love, Beautiful Loved & Blessed, Fury, Satisfied; all super jams from the 3121 album. How R we gonna get Milk & Honey released?
Tamar said she owns the rights and will be releasing it herself soon!
3121 is one of his best albums!!! The Word is one of my faves off of it. 🔮😈💜☔️ #prince4ever
I think that album is more of a whole album than individual songs but sad to say he was much more popular across the pond than he was here in the states... like really no comparison
This is one book I want to read to see how they broke up like how he just walked away from her which it definitely seemed he did
I have a great video from Florida Hard rock show with Tamar
My comment was deleted. Was there a problem? Fav song off 3121 so many but it's The Dance.
Long story short
Right?! I thought the same thing! I'm saying to myself "If she says 'to make a long story short' one more time!" lol
Nothing “short” about those stories😁 Alrhough she kept repeating those words..😄
The Word
The Dance
Get On The Boat
Te Amo Corazón
Anyone able to escape the oppression of BitchYawnce has my respect
cool
That was not a long story short!!! Too funny!!
Never thought to ask Morris? Seems odd.
Why?
Awesome Interview. I love Tamar. Looking forward to the release of Milk & Honey and her book. She has such a powerful lovely voice. I listen to 3121 all the time. And yes she is so damn SEXY. #NPG4EVER #MUSICMATTERS #THEAPRILSNOWHASNOTMELTED
Love her but, "long story short"... how many times does she say that? Lol
Tamar is a beautiful woman with a wonderful voice, but if Prince told her that her hair and nose resembled his mother's, he wasn't telling the truth. Maybe he was up to his usual headgames. .
OK i had to stop to listen to On Your Own... (has a Da Bang sound it)
Never knew who Prince was? She wasn't worthy 🙅
