This is a very VERY good documentary, It's hard to watch in 2022 as I miss him dearly...😥
I agree - he was timely and spoke his mind which is very much to be admired. ❤
The Come Album was fantastic. I never needed Prince to make pop songs. Back in 95.I was pumping that. Great time.
Come is Orgasm
Last track
Insane
His music is an inspiration to other artists who still listen to his music.Rest in peace
Prince was such an amazing individual and a stunning artist.
Genius is very often not understood by the stupid. I love this man, everything he did was brilliant.
Jason Draper is one of those people. He wishes he could even polish Prince's shoes lol
He was so ahead of his time. ❤❤❤❤
I always loved Prince since my sister played 1999 back in 1983, then came Purple Rain and on and on. Thought he was a genuine genius and now he's surpassed that mark
loved this documentary learned alot appreciate you putting this together
Business people aren’t artists generally so they didn’t get him only what they wanted! We followed him through it all, loved the music the story the adventures! RIP P / TV Tim Sweden 🇸🇪
All of those side paisley park music, is awesome.
I fallowed Prince through everything from the 1999 album ....sometimes it was hard 2 be a fan when my other Non-Prince friends would always ask me "WTF is up with your boy ?"
He was a genius , but suing your fans was a wrong move.
Anyone else reflecting on Prince & watching this because of Ye's recent actions? When he said "I'm Michael now" on Drink Champs podcast, if he'd said "I'm The Artist now," more people would've understood immediately.
Prince opened the market to independent artists much prior to its time. He was a visionary and he understood that the industry was about to change. He was an amazing musician that was about the real thing. People just don't get it anymore. He was the last...love him!!!
I wish more musicians would follow his and Mj lane instead of Jay-z Puff and kanye.
Amazing documentary work, i was there and it's accurate
I'm not sure if bootlegs were out then, but most bootlegs are music from the 80s and up to early 90s. I think those bootlegs saved his career, because fans wanted more and more.
That’s with everything people can careless about what someone going through until it happens to u.
One word for Prince. He was way ahead of time the industry was not ready for him and he was so underated.
In the 90’s he suffered the most tragic death of his child. He bonded with that child for a week and watch him suffer horrendously. For someone as sensitive and vulnerable as Prince you could not blame him if he gave up the music business. He had the added pressure of his fight with Warner Brothers and his marriage disintegrating partly due to Mayte’s inability to handle the trauma of her son’s death.
Love this ❤❤
excellent doco .. learning new things and his brilliance and chaos O+>
His troubles with Warner Brothers Records dicrease his career.Above all his music will always be in memory.
Anybody knows what that happy guitar melody is from what song? I know its one of princes songs. Just cant remember which one
Anyone know the guitar tune that keeps playing thru the last part of the doc?...driving me crazy
Me too I know it's one of princes songs but I dont know which one
Stfd he has amazing music.👍👍❤❤🙌🙌
I used to wonder,
why does he come out with music so rapidly?
If Warner wants him to just slow down a bit, why can't he accomodate them and give the public time to fully digest each project before the next one came out?
The answer to that question can be found in an interview his former studio engineer, Susan Rogers did with Sunset Sounds. It can be found on youtube.
Very revealing!
I wish I would've met Prince you can tell he would've definitely remade the music business and industry the way it's supposed to be.What a loss😪🙏
Excellent. Ye I understand now. By watching Prince The Artist experience in the same music industry. Awesome video. Educational as well.
You can do it yourself. List goes on.
Prince legacy lives on. Ye i do understand your point.
lol there's nothing to understand with bipolar, if you think you get it then you definitely don't get it.
If you listen to the Jody Watley album Andre cymone produced it and vogue by Madonna has that same sound.
the GOAT 🔥
Prince was unbelievably talented and successful as well as capricious and unbearably stubborn.
I wont lie, this was a very long watch but it was very interesting, I didn't know prince only by reference that he was an amazing singer but I like how its very critical is dissecting what actually was going on in Prince's moves and Career. The closest thing i find in this generation that is similar to prince is Kanye without a doubt and quite frankly it kinda gives me solace that maybe Kanye will follow in Prince's Footsteps. Its crazy what this man had to go through to get what he believed was right, and some of his pitfalls in mainstream, in my generation we can definitely it was something done by the higher ups in music but this documentary doesn't really paint that picture, it just put it as if that it was just a conflict of interest betweeen a label and an artist but we all know how predatory and manical the music industry and quite frankly for him to literally fight the labels at their very prime gives me absolute reverence and respect for this man, truly a Man of many hats and quite frankly very stylish hats too.
Rest in Peace to the Purple One, we really miss you 💜💜🟣
Nipsey Hussle was definitely inspired by Prince marketing. RIP to both!!
1:48:30 I can't belive he called the exodus album terrible. Album was hella funky.
Prince wanted to be true to himself, but still be viewed as the ultimate hitmaker and businessman. When his attempts to be HARD ("My name is Prince" and "Sexy MF") didn't play with a mainstream audience, he blamed everyone but himself. He retreated to "funk" with the independent NPG releases, which seemed like a carbon copy of the music from the 70's he grew up with. Some of his fans followed, but the critical and financial success he craved did not follow. He became a cult artist once again.
Let the music play... 💜☸💜
When was this documentary finished? Did it air anywhere? I enjoyed it.
4EVER...❤❤❤ 💜💜💜👑 in my life...💜💜💜Prince..💜💜..His l8fe story has not been easy....but He is a great musical genius..🎹🎸🎶🎵♊
Prince just wasn’t an artist he was a genius. A genius in business and in music. They tried him, they lost ….He was smarter than any company that picked him up. They tried to make Prince look like a buffoon but who got the last laugh….TRIED being the key word.
Prince tried all he could. It’s very sad indeed
He deserved it. His work was superior to all.❤❤👍👍🙌🙌
Watch this important Documentary: The power brokers you never elected
Prince is OUR MUSICAL HERO 🙏🏿💜🙏🏿🎶🎵🎼🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Prince was awesome artist, but he had fantastical objectives.👍👍👍❤❤💪💪😂😂🇬🇧🇬🇧
A product 4 LOVE
Or not?
@@miro115 He could either produce love or produce hits. Prince was no businessman.
@@eltiochusma if that was irony, then U succeeded
When these guys start talking about the 80s, they keep saying Madonna and Michael Jackson, and true enough.
But I think Sting, Springsteen, and maybe even Bon Jovi absolutely need to be in the conversation.
but bruce, bon, springsteen were not selling albums like madonna and mj
This was not a new revelation of truth with a artist vs. the robbery of corporate music executives who had no creative ability who only wanted to play slave and master. artists examples were Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, James Brown and many others
Ownership of your Masters... don't be a slave subject to the systematic machine.💜💯
The documentary commences with commentary referencing the infamous rap cap, hip hop horray of colors crossed, for us by us, concepts of urban american crop culture. p.r.n. made a mission statement without knowing the cause. Block Chain Legal Applications working the frame of music production trade management.
The symbol is brilliant. It's a sigil.
"Tony M the terrible rapper"...lol...compared to nowadays rap-goons Tony M was like Rakim...lol.
Seriously, i got lots and lots of Rap Records from the 80s and 90s, and even more tapes, and i can guarantee there were tons of worse MCs out there than Tony M was.
I remember when TLC won their Grammies went onstage to accept them and just said we are broke as broke can be let everyone know they were only given some clothes and an image but we're doing all the work and not being rewarded.
Warn A Brother Records must account for the TAPE$., & pay per viewership overseas influenced by Purple Rain Live.
fuck me i love "Come" so much...
Jem Aswad was very condescending especially with his bigotry and referring to Prince as pigheaded. Why was this dude even a commentator and most of what he said was a BAD smokescreen because Prince never put out an album that was unlistenable.
I wish Prince wouldve hadd a better rapper than Tony M.
I agree with Prince. Nope that was him.😂😂👍👍❤❤
Prince was True artist and Genius, True he wasn’t greatest business man But I do give him the benefit of doubt. For WB I understand they had a lot respect for him and all But they did stupid things too according Alan Leed Warner bro didn’t put any money to Paisley Park Records he believed it was use as a carrot to get prince stay with WB. Prince two managers got other Artists to be sign in PP without prince but all the their albums got tank didn’t properly promote well.
Warn A Brother Records & TAPES capotalized from broken keyboard equipment, covered by insurance, by charging the Artist's account; music equipment rental company management attached a social security number to the receipt for future notation 🎶

Prince is so overrated, how is he compared to Michael Jackson
Prince was better than Michael Jackson

@@kahlilalliejr.7822 OK, laugh it up even though nothin is funny. Lay out all of Prince's albums and lay out all of Michael's albums in front of you.
Sadly he played full concerts of utter rubbish and his fans paid too!!
Prince was an still is a musical genius lets c u do what he did..
