youtube.com/live/CDYRHFeLie8?si=OtOIDauLUYauF3Oc

the og mpls rapper who muscled his way in prince paisley park camp. the lp isn’t good but he has a great story.

plus Diamonds n Pearls super deluxe edition podcast series to start soon 😎

Dark.

In.

My favorite will always be Baby, tbh.

I think : Purple Rain next year (2024)

Around The World In A Day the year after (2025)

That first album have underrated gems

Purple rain is a given but i think the plan is to do a round of protege reissues

Funkatopia says Mayte is making an announcement that will break the internet if she announces it next week during her guest appearance . i hope she doesn’t say estate is doing a 10 disc set for Child of the sun . 18 takes of her singing -brick house she’s mayte mayte letting it all hang out -

if people think i’m joking , Mayte covered Brick House and that’s the hook of the song instead of the word mighty 😭

where is Mayte making a guest appearance ?

funkatopia.

next week she’s supposed to make an announcement - i wonder what it could be ? i hope it’s not a another book announcement

the tc ellis one was kind of interesting. it was very centered on his school for the arts. i think that’s cool but he has great stories about knocking people out for prince protecting him on the streets.

i needed more prince stories - he has them. He grew up with him and was around him. Not as much as Andre or Morris but still his time with him

it’s cool they answer questions in the youtube chat even. we could get some serious answers if any of the music og’s show up in prince’s camp like levi or femi

i can’t imagine when funkatopia gets jesse johnson - that man has close to 20 discs of vault material from for you era given to him by prince. the estate needs to go get it

one more day until diamonds n pearls podcast series starts from prince estate 😎

F***ing hell -- another Frankenstein mix.

Come is such a underrated album.

no man should be this pretty

just started the prince discogs again, going to stop at graf bridge so i can listen to Diamonds in the morning

I predict 3 releases next year

they should do a Time debut deluxe with Morris Jesse Jimmy Terrry promoting it with a live tour & you include the sessions Morris & Prince were working together plus a live tour show from the first tour

and you package it in a giant clock
And that would make the fans happy Give back the rights to their group name for promoting and supporting the project. 😳

If you really wanted people to come out each show you do the whole album as one set 😎
