    7 (E flat version) is interesting, it's pretty similar to the 2 Whom It May Concern beat with Prince singing 7 over it, and it doesn't have the Tramp sample that's basically the glue to the OG version

    Makes me wonder if it's a demo

    According to the Prince Estate, itʼs not a demo, but honestly, you never know.

    Whereʼs the “Life oʼ the Party” demo with Camille-esque vox?

    Never mind, Iʼve just found it.

    Yeah, I’ve seen the .org thread and Stereogum article as well.

    I’m assuming it’s to prevent people from getting CDQ to boot

    so has the prince fanbase collectively decided to avoid ever talking about the very weird concept of the love symbol album and how it reflects on his inappropriate relationship with a very young mayte?

    I know Mayta said later on that she was 18 when they started dating but prince had said to his band members the album was about Mayta where its confirmed in the lyrics the love interest is 16 (confirmed in the outro of arrogance), the same age Mayta was when prince took her on tour as a belly dancer and became her legal guardian. Also in the album the relationship is sexual at this point as well.

    "Don't look now, but there's a river of blood
    You must have been a virgin
    What am I guilty of?
    Oh no"

    I dunno the whole album just felt like Prince tryna justify a level of grooming this girl tbh. a lot of sus ass lyrics on that album too. also curious child from emanciption seems to be about a very young Mayta & prince hooking up. super weirdo s*** tbh,

    It’s very weird. Have U heard sister by him on controversy? He talks about being groomed by his sister at the same age of 16

    sister is from dirty mind but i think theres a good chance that song was made just for the shock value, playing into the dirty mind concept but if it isn't it still has a level of self-awareness knowing its a messed up situation.

    There’s definitely a lot to unpack with his art still

    I have to admit that the Anna Fantastic and Mayte relationships were strange -- genuinely weird, even.
    However, I don’t think “Sister” should be an indicator of anything bizarre going on with him; merely pure shock value.

    I wonder if it’s stuff like this that’s holding the Netflix doc back

    If 2023 twitter would get a hold of this, bunch of people would be cancelling a dead guy lmao

    But yeah, the Anna Fantastic and Mayte relationships are… interesting to say the least

    It’s a shame because I think the love symbol has a few of princes best moments. Shame it’s full of awful raps and uncomfortable lyrics of a man in his 30’s lusting over a 16 year old girl

  • Jul 20, 2023

    Like…And god created woman is such an amazingly put together song. I gotta remove it from the context of the album to enjoy it I feel.
