Friends remember a young Prince on the anniversary of his death

They need to bring the arts back to all high schools.

[@thisislogout]

No, they have no need or want to bring it back. The Industry picks and chooses who they want to be "stars". 99% of them are related to or already know someone in the business. They can easily create tracks on a computer for these new "artists". It's a whole new ball game.

[@HypnoticHollywood]

@@thisislogout Everything you said is false...unsigned artists don't get deals because they're related to or already know someone and they don't get picked to be stars by the industry. Today's artists make themselves stars on social media, then label deals follow.

After his concert in LA, we got to meet Vanity. She talked to us for about 5 minutes. That was a nice treat to his concert: memories.

[@denrosz]

That's so cool you were able to witness his genius live performances. Which shows did you see? I was also fortunate to have seen him 35 times, and I am still heartbroken at times, that I will never be able to see the best performer again.

@@OldskolFan So cool !!! The first time I saw Prince was in 1982 on the 1999 tour in Detroit. What an introduction to live Prince !!!

Still in shock.... Can't shed a tear yet. Afraid I won't be fully ok for a minute... U have to be ok with his whole as a philanthropist and Musician/Artist/ICON.. I have been a Prince Admirer since 9 years of age when I saw him perform at the Gary, Indiana Genesis Center in '81 on the Controversy Tour... At 9 y.o. you can see GENIUS when it's front of you. Just can't describe what it was just in little kid AWE, especially growing up around music and being in bands from elementary to high school marching band..

[@julieannemichelle]

@@apostlej.k.diamond4119 When a musician who you’ve listened to for the majority of your life and whose music is in your soul, it’s extremely hard to say goodbye. In 1997 a singer songwriter who I had listened to since the 60’s and whose music always lives within me passed away. It still makes me so sad. She also wasn’t old and the potential music that she could have given us is forever lost. I’m referring to Laura Nyro. She also was a true genius.

[@c.c.6930]

I'll never forget the day I discovered Prices' music. I'm from Switzerland and I was travelling on a Greyhound bus to New York. My neighbour on the bus was listening to music and he was a really cool guy. He lent me his headphones because he wanted me to listen to this great guy singing. He'd also asked me if I'd heard of a singer called Prince and when I said ‘no’ he was so shocked. In those days, we listened to music on what was called a ‘Walkman’, which worked with audio cassettes. I was literally blown away! I remember that scene like it was yesterday. I felt like I was listening to a superhuman genius.

I loved Prince. He was a wonderful singer.🎉❤.

[@bigred4379]

He said “ music was our competition “ … this is what makes people great… competing, collaboration, learning more, going higher. Prince never stopped. Elton never stops .. this is what makes a great musician. This is exactly why music should stay in every school at any cost. It teaches us so much more.

[@a.c.cordova9840]

I doubt there are "a lot more Princes out there"......often imitated but never duplicated. I don't think we will see anything like Prince in our lifetimes. I see plenty of Madonna's and Michael Jackson's, but nothing like Prince. Still missing Prince at this end. RIP

[@apostlej.k.diamond4119]

Oh there are some artists/musicians who can do what he did he just came out first. Minneapolis Sound is just that. It existed BEFORE Prince. Sonny T. was his idol because SONNY was doing the things Prince hadn't yet achieved... So that's not true. If the industry opens the door, you'll see artists able to do what he does and just as good... Now his performance ability is second to none...including Michael Jackson...

At end of video, that man said "People need to dream big. I really think there's a lot more Prince's out there. Somewhere." I've thought that for years, that the greatest talented people have never been discovered or signed to a record contract. Probably just grew up, got married, started their family and disappeared.

[@josevillarreal9920]

Very true, I believe the area he grew up in and the timing of the industry had a lot to do with it also. Think of all the amazing artists that didn't survive the streets or ended up occupied with just getting by financially. I once was told timing is EVERYTHING.
