And for all I know he´s also a pioneer in revolutionary music marketing concepts on the internet.
QuoteAnd for all I know he´s also a pioneer in revolutionary music marketing concepts on the internet.Not really. His career has bombed since he began suing everyone who uses his music on the internet. He even went so far as to write a dis track against his fans for refusing to shut down their websites with pictures of him posted on them.He used to be unstoppable as an artist but now he's pretty much irrelevant. He hasn't released a solid record since the mid 90s.
Prince's problem is he does not appreciate his fans, ever seen how he snubs them in public? it is unbelievable how he is towards them.

That might partially be true. But nevertheless, he´s sovereign and independent as an artist. That´s not to be taken for granted.And he knew how to take advantage of the internet at a time, when major labels only complained about declining sales.By the way, I can´t blame him for defending his intellectual property.

The Gold Experience was the last one to get all around critical and public acclaim. That was also the last album to give him a #1 hit around the world.Musicology got some attention because of his performance @ the Grammys with Beyonce. 3121 was mildly popular because he was still okay with promoting his work.The rest only hardcore fans would know and only a few of these albums were widely released.
I used to think Prince was pretty cool, until his he started to get upset about his videos and images of himself on the net. Then he started to get upset with the fans over it, he should be grateful the fans want to see him, but instead he got mad, started to get legal teams together to troll the internet, for the purpose of taking down his videos,music, images... Not sure how sucessful he was, because when it started I stopped bothering with him altogether. Prince's problem is he does not appreciate his fans, ever seen how he snubs them in public? it is unbelievable how he is towards them. But on the other hand I do think he had a point about all the Chem trails, I believe that this conspiracy is true...So glad Michael respects and appreciates his fans, he makes me feel good to know him.
