There shall never be anyone like Prince. I hear Kanye is the King for these young ones.

Thieves are not good people. Tumeelewana?

Someone once did a study of Today's Artists and artists from antiquity and came up with the conclusion that the artists of antiquity generally lived fuller lives. The reason they did that is because they did not have to compete with their former selves. The concept of the "muse" was very present and the "muses" would give someone amazing artistic skills and insight then like the wind move to someone else. So the creativity was not thought of as an individual's possession - this did not put any pressure on the artist on his next release. if the next release "stunk" it was not because the artist was incapable of recreating his art but rather the muses had gone and empowered someone else. Our worldview today is such that we place too much on the artist. Remember Darling P? imagine the pressure on him for the next release? Then he released it and it STUNK TO HIGH HEAVEN! Artists are always trying to create that magic that put them on the limelight and it's hard and our worldview is such that we say... "siku hizi sio mnoma". No wonder the artists try to recreate the experiences sometimes with drugs since the great days are behind them. It's harsh!

RIP Prince.

I tried but couldn't understand his music.

Other than "purple rain" I can't tell you which songs he has sang.

But the guy was a cult hero.

It's easy to know how old people are today. Laughing out loudly

Legends should not be a word to be used lightly. Just go to tweeter today.

But here goes. For the mzees out there, you do remember that Prince's songs are the ones that forced the American gov't to come up with labels for their music. He was too sexy. I'm sure if the Kfcb fellow was around there would we would never have heard little red corvetter or even Gett off

But because these are the watershed hours here you go

Thieves are not good people. Tumeelewana?

I knew one day we would agree on something

Michael Jackson could not do this. He was good. But he was not Prince. And this was in front of some of the best guitarists ever. He had never heard the song before 2 days to the concert.
