Prince Is Intoxicated On His Own Ego And His Legacy Will Probably Die With Him
Firstly let me state that am a big fan of his royal zestiness i own a whopping 25 of his albums and alot of his fans share these sentiments with me
...........
Prince stated recently that he doesn't want people covering his songs in concert and that i quote (note he said something like this)
"if your gonna pay money to hear my songs..then it should be me" and before someone covers his songs in concert the artist must give him a call and ask for permission .
also about people sampling his music he wants his permission to be sought first..the normal trend when you cover/sample a song is that you pay royalties for that particular song and credit the original .you dont contact the orignal artist for permission ...
It's funny, I don't think other great songwriters have complained about people covering their songs. John Lennon used to complain to Yoko that not enough people covered his songs compared to Paul's.
Prince come across as very hypocritical considering that he covers alot peoples songs on tour. recently michael jackson's "dont stop till you get enough "
he worries complains about the most petty things that legends of his caliber tend to ignore.. no wonder why he will remain second rate to them.. this young generation will always be like "prince who?"
he is just greedy and seems to be more concerned in fighting for pennys and cents than putting out decent music..his ass hasnt put out a decent album in decades
most legends are flattered when people cover their music he on the other hand..
and to top it off he doesnt even give a SH*T about his fans..did you know he sued his own fan site?? mj would never..
he has all his videos taken off youtube.. what is wrong with people watching your video's on youtube?? like seriously how much money does that take from you??? you are worth over $100mill and you still care about petty things.... bitch needs to just stop.its beyond embarrassing now
