49. "RE: Startin shit for good reason." In response to In response to 48
what the hell is wrong with you people? For the record, I never said Prince was anything other than what he is... a dope ass musician, a REAL legend, and the illest performer alive. Bottome line... he does many things I wouldn't do or don't appreciate... but that doesn't mean he still isn't Prince. Just like I like the Roots, but don't appreciate what Ahmir does. In order to really get into someone's work doesn't mean you become a suck up, a clone, or a spineless trick. I have my own opinions and I don't care who's speaking on theirs... however... if I had to give someone more respect than others.. it would be Prince, James Brown... you know... the cats WHO REALLY deserve it... that cats who changed music and have been changing music for years. THat's cause they earned it. I will be damned if some cat has been around since 93 and is talking mad ish? Especially when it don't add up half the time and it comes off like someone who used to really associate with the struggling artist... but now associates more with the very people he used to criticize... in my opinion the art, the artist, and the artist appreciator suffers in the end.
