We, as fans, think of the music industry in a different manner. Music sounds good, artist win music awards, artist is loved by the masses. The message has been lost along the way.

One aspect I admired about Prince was his commitment to himself. He stayed true to himself and produced music according to his taste and placed it out on the market not caring if he won an award, only hoping that we got it. We understood where he was coming from. Of course, that's all changed. But I see that spirit in D and I respect him for that.


You know, whether the album's promotion was the record label's doing or a decision made by D, I can't help but think this is exactly what he wanted. More promoting means less time with family...and I'm sure that was not up D's alley.

Voodoo backfired...I think not. I believe it did exactly what he wanted it to do. Wet our appetites for what's coming next.
