    1999, Prince said “soon we will be sampling music that has already been sampled” and in 2020 this holds true.

    • @Jcrash71
      @Jcrash71 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      But the only problem is that sampling started to happen in the 90s too. Do you not know anything about music?
      Go and do some research.

      @@Jcrash71,
      I think what they meant to say was, "And to this day this holds true" or "And in 2020 this is still happening". I'm sure this person knows at least a few things about music, and I decided to ask because you sounded rude. 🙄

      Prince was soo ahead of the time. He saw through the layers of what was going on and he knew..That's why he didn't want to be part of where society and the music were going to. Always unique, always loyal to his own principles and beliefs. You couldn't manipulate Prince, it was obvious. He had too strong personality to be manipulated by anything or anyone. That's why I respect (beside artistic side ofc) this man in a great deal.

      @@Jcrash71 We were not sampling the samples then (at least not as we do today, minimally back then) , re-watch the video and re-read his comment. Whereas you were trying to teach him about music, I think you need to give yourself some lessons on humility, and kindness.

Morris Day And The Time, Jimmy Jam and Terry Kewis, Teddy Riley, Babyface are still here living and making music too

    GREAT interview. First: He looks cool as #*%^#@ ;-) . Second: He admits feeling responsible as an artist for presumably putting out songs that trigger negative behaviors in certain listeners. That's some bold honesty. This is one of many reasons why I appreciated him as a person, not just an artist or 'rock star.' I loved him for exercising his conscience, and speaking out on matters of human suffering, racism, sexism, conflict and peace. That resonated with me early on when I started to really focus on him in the early 80s. Every interview with him, I always came away a little more enlightened. That was a deep brother and if you were paying attention when he spoke, you could always come away with something meaningful to ponder.

      Unlike you I'm actually old enough (a few years older than Prince actually) to remember how much the music industry had changed throughout the 90s. Prince, Donna Summer, Joni Mitchell, David Bowie, Bob Dylan all spoke about this.

      Molly, you've just inspired me to listen to the Black album for the first time in quite a while. I've owned it (bootleg) for many years but played it very little, as I always felt that this was the beginning of Prince losing his inspiration. To my surprise, it sounded MUCH, much better than I remembered! In fact, I think I might have to revisit and reevaluate my opinion of this album. I know that it was pulled at the last minute (at Prince's behest?), if that's what you mean? I'd always thought that this was simply because it was sub standard. It appears I may well have been wrong about that
