QuoteWhen you finish your job you also want to go home and relax, spend time with your family and do the things you like to do in your time off. Why can't an artist do that? Why do fans expect an artist to socialize with them? They don't owe that to their fans, fans just think they owe them that.They also don't expect diss tracks to be released when they refuse to be ridiculously censored for no reason and with no explanation BY the very artist they supported and spent their hard earned money on. PRINCE needs to remember no artist is successful without their fans.

PRINCE needs to remember no artist is successful without their fans.YOU need to remember that whatever Prince is releasing in whatever way, it's HIS stuff, and HE can do with it whatever HE wants, without having to explain himself. He doesn't owe you anything, neither did he force you to buy his records, that was YOUR choice.
Why would Prince (or any other artist) have to socialize with fans..? Creating music and performing is a profession, it's his work. If people admire his work they can buy his records and play them. They can attend gigs and watch him perform. In my opinion, that is where it should end.

Whatever the artist does, it will never be good enough, there will always be complaints. Put yourself in an artist's position - how would you feel if your "customers" think they have the right to claim you after your job is finished..?
Quote from: "themjkiss"Quote from: "*Mo*"Quote from: "themjkiss"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. I don't mean to be rude or disrespectful, but just post a message on the Prince forum about Prince's message, and see how his fans respond to you, IF they even GET the CHANCE to respond, because the mods over there are very quick with deleting or locking threads when it comes to spreading Prince's messages. I don't think that the majority of Prince's fans understand what he's talking and singing about at all, which leads them to ridicule and bash those who do understand.Mo: I had been a admirer of Prince ever since I had seen the movie Purple Rain, that was many years ago for me..and had been a member of the Prince.org website for years as well, so I know exactly what your are talking about with how the mods there operate, I have experienced it. As far as his message, well perhaps some people do not get it. I do admire Prince for his awareness of social suppressions in it's many forms, and trying to make difference with his music about this very subject. However when it comes to social relations, he has never been to kind to the people who support him his fans or rather fams. That was my point, his response towards his fams, this has been a complaint with many Prince fams for years, I am not the only one to notice. You can disagree if you want, it is your right, but this is true.Quote from: "themjkiss"Mo: To continue what I was saying, sorry for some reason I was not able to post anymore text in my last response not sure why. I would have liked to see Prince change, become more social with his fams, but it did not happen, he just became for reclusive. I have seen many videos of him arriving at different types of events through the years, you never really see him interact that much with the fams. Then this whole internet thing went down, where he starting suing alot of people. Well I have more than made my point, I just wanted to vent.. themjkiss, thanks for explaining, I appreciate it.

We chose to line his pockets since the late 70s and give him the money to own his purple mansion and live the high life and that's what we get back.
