Minneapolis born in raised, My older sister was in one of his videos in 97', my pops played on Prince's rec league bball team, my moms went to high school with him.

Everyone has their own attachment to Prince.

Some more than others.

If a nikkas says "Erotic City" is one of their favorite Prince songs than I automatically know they are a true fan :blessed:
I like exotic city but damn... wonderful ass is my fave :ohlawd:. And I'm not saying that to be a hipster, he should have release that heat :whew:. Please if y'all have not heard it just give it a listen. I wish I had my hard drive. I got hundreds of unreleased songs, live recordings, sound checks, and videos etc...From prince and the camp. I would upload for the coli so y'all can hear and see that heat.

It's about the overabundance of fakeness; bandwagoners for some brownie points.
If they actually become a prince fan after I say it's a win, a lot people didn't fukk with prince cause they though he was weird or based his music off of purple rain. You really have to listen to each album to get appreciation for his musical genius. If people see that then that is win for prince. Even the super fans on prince.org had their problems with prince. He made "no more candy 4u" for his legion of critical super fans. ( or so they say)

OP has somewhat of a point. I know people acting like they're huge Prince fans when I know for a fact they weren't fukking with him like that when he was alive.

I was never a huge Prince fan, but I acknowledge how great of an artist he was and the impact he made. So I paid my respects and kept it moving. But I see people that didn't even like him like that going on and on making countless posts/statuses about him and putting him up on their profile pics, etc.

I don't have a problem with people showing love, just keep it real that's all

I'm not at all disregarding his legacy. I'm talking about the all of a sudden ass fans who always pop up when someone dies.
I feel you on that. People (especially cacs) talked about MJ like a fukking dog, but when he died, everybody was boohooing and stanning hard.
Ciara was talking that "I was his biggest fan" shyt, but when they asked her what her favorite song was, she didn't even know the name of the song was Billie Jean. She started humming the damn bass line like a gatdamn fool :martin:

:camby:Hipster ass nikkas. "I knew Prince before you knew Prince" ass nikkas.

Y'all acting like Prince wasn't one of the biggest pop stars of all time. If he was some obscure underground artist, I could understand the complaints, but, c'mon...

As far as black pop music goes, Prince was only 2nd to Michael Jackson in terms of popularity.

Amazing. :mjlol:

Its a problem if people don't care for Prince's death-
"Whatchu mean you don't know a Prince song? Pay some muhfukkin respect, nikka. These young'ns gots no respect. This Social Media Generation ruining lives outchea"

and

Its a problem if people do care for Prince's death-
"Pfft. Hate these Johnny come latelys, jumping on the bandwagon. The moment he dies, you become a fan? Well, We liked him before you were even born so ner-ner-na-ner-ner"


fukk me. There's just no winning with some people. :snoop:

nikkaz do this everytime a GOAT dies. "Not knowing them" is an issue today, but when September 13th(Pac's death) rolls around, these nikkaz won't be able to STFU for 5 minutes straight.
FOH, we don't have to discuss a nikka for years to validate our fandom when they pass. :laff:

A guy at my job didn't know who Prince was but he is 25
A week ago, I wouldn't have been able to pick breh out of a photo array. Regardless, I'll never get the whole romanticization of people postmortem. :yeshrug:
