He really seems to be showing out whenever he feels like he's in an underdog situation. I seem to remember him in Tavis in recent years talking about Rolling Stones not giving him a feature, he then went about that he thinks "he's great" without the validations of other music writers, something to that effect, I know somebody's familiar with that interview.

It was the 1st time I heard Prince show his fear of losing critics/press accolades, he put up a good front of having a Miles Davis facade for so long.
