    What’s really cool about it, is that all his facial expressions and mannerisms remained intact. You can tell just by the way he shifts his lips and glances off to the right or left. It’s exactly what he did his whole life, during interviews.

    Prince was on the right side of history, even as a young boy.

    Why is this cool? It shows his charm right outta the gate. He was charming, smart, assured, stood tall, hands in pocket, poised, devilish, glint in his eyes, and has something nice to say about supporting the Teachers.

    I miss Prince. He truly cared about his gift and he took it serious, because not too many appreciate the music craft 💜

    I'm already a hardcore fan but as a teacher this made me tear up.

    What I like in this story is, that the people, who look at this video are so excited, and you see the love, they still have for him.

    The cheeks and eyes remained, plus the smirk on his face.

    Prince has always been a conscious guy...that's so amazing. He was on it even as a child. Rip 🙏

    Wooooowwww. He has the same demeanor that he had as an adult. He sounded so mature and to the point even when he was little.

    What an amazing piece of history uncovered. As a native Minnesotan, born and raised in Minnepolis, I am forever connected to Prince and his entourage. It was nothing to see Prince and Sheila E out on the town or dropping by a club to do a quick set. That is just so cool to see little Skipper!

    He already had his mannerisms established at that time.

    He was really from the Black community. America tried to make him something else but he was from our community. RIP Prince

    Prince popping up like this putting a smile on everyone’s face is his way of speaking from his grave letting everyone know that he’s OK his soul was saved.
