Prince was all music. He didn't like genre breakdown. Always loved this song. 🎵 🎶 ❤

[@thepurpleladder]

Fun fact Ice Cube directed this video....Prince and Nona was dating at the time of course Nona Gaye is Marvin Gaye's daughter...great reaction.

[@EmpressReacts]

Oh wow to everything that you said🤯

[@BrooklynLove55]

If you're sick of evil knocking on your door Throw up the love sign once and 4 ever more (2 signs of the times) If you'd rather make love and have a little fun Throw up the love sign everybody and not the gun (Time is passing, passing is time) I love me some Prince! He’s my all time favorite artist! 💜👑🎸

[@EmpressReacts]

Yeah I see very witty and smart with his word play

[@arthurseymorejr.3606]

I loved this song when it came out back in the day.

[@cryptozoomauler5505]

Love this collab between Prince and Marvin Gaye's daughter. When I first heard it, it was on the radio but it wasn't on the radio much. Might have been a college station or something. I loved it more than you did. It's like a 90s successor to his earlier song "DMSR". I'd like to see you react to Goddess "Sexual" sometime.

[@Scary__fun]

The sample is from George Clinton's Atomic Dog (which would make a great reaction song) and was also sampled earlier by Snoop Dogg and many other artists.

Prince was always kinda gangsta. There's always been an attempt by the media to separate Prince from the community/people he comes from but the reality is Prince whole style was just another outlet from the culture, life and people he belongs to. If anyone observes Prince's style closely especially during the revolution days people will say he's a cross of little richard and hendrix. In reality though he was taking elements from the pimp culture. If you seen the promo photos of him from 80-84 He was always surrounded by women usually two by his side while he was dressed to the 9s in a purple or ensemble look sometimes he had a hat and a cane. The fact he was coming out of the 70s when his career began when the pimp fashion was first popular he clearly was using it and turned it into his own thing. Then when you add Morris Day and The Time where some members are dressed in a suit and hat like the blues musicians of the 40s and 50s you basically see Prince and his group giving homage and their new spin and interpretation of the fashion style of different eras and elements from parts of Black american culture and music history. So he was always immersed in the culture and gangsta with it too just different to what we consider to be gangsta as its different to what it was when prince came up but whats the same is the swagger and confidence associated with them.

[@EmpressReacts]

Interesting ‼️Besides the songs requested by the patreons I am really not familiar with Prince outside of his shady memes and purple rain which I’ve never seen

[@gabrielmcdonnell8699]

“Enjoyable”. 💯

[@steveholloway6571]

That's Marvin Gaye daughter

[@EmpressReacts]

😮 oh wow!

[@JayGHDTTP]

To put this video in perspective…the video came out in 1993…30 years ago and Prince was talking about gun control which we are still trying to get laws passed for today.

[@pharaoh2537]

♀️♂️💜

[@darnell49]

Never heard this one before. It’s cool though. Nona has a song The Things That We All Do For Love that I like.

[@EmpressReacts]

Was she a big artist?

[@petersavieri]

Amazingly that was a normal sized chair 😂

[@EmpressReacts]

***PRINCE / "SYMBOL" TRIVIA TIME!!*** ...a 'sign' of the times...MY times.... (2:54)... - ...well, I posted TWO posts on this tune, and they keep getting removed...I guess I tell TOO much 'trivia' to be heard........SO, I'll keep it clean N' quick..... this was a tune released on the indie label that released "The Most Beautiful Girl In The World", the Spring 1994 'comeback' tune for Prince..... - ...this was to promote a c-ompilation Album called "One Eight Hundred New Funk" for the New Power Generation; this tune wasn't released as a single, so, it didn't chart.....the Girl in the Video is *NONA GAYE* (Daughter of Marvin), who was on Prince's WB label in 1992, and had a minor hit with "I'm Overjoyed"....Prince snatched her for the Duet & Video.... - ...Prince promoted this tune at a 'meet & greet' at Tower Records in NYC, July 1994......which I went to....I'll tell ya, in Part 2.......

[@EmpressReacts]

So how did a song that wasn’t a single get a video? Or maybe the question is why?

[@RBS_]

@@EmpressReacts ...doesn't matter...ANYBODY can have a Video for a "Song"; the promotion is to let People know where they can BUY it.....which was, the "OneeighthundredNewFunk" comp.......

[@RBS_]

***RBS MEETS PRINCE / "SYMBOL" TRIVIA TIME!!*** (Part 2) ...bang, bang, BANG....(4:14)..... - ....as I mentioned, I met Prince at Tower Records (July 1994); It was a 9 HOUR WAIT, and I was already promised to meet him, because a Buddy worked at the Store, and got me in, with the Employees..... - ...People camped out for 2 NIGHTS, and had Tents! .....even though I didn't need to wait on the line, I HAD to, because they closed the Store down, so no One would 'hang' about..... - ....unfortunately, I wish I could say it was a joyous experience....but It was NOT; ....you see, it was the SAME DAY when Prince got into that tussle with Bryant Gumbel on "Good Morning America", and Prince was NOTINDAMOOOOOD, and he brought the at-tit-tude to Tower Records, (along w/ Nona & NPG) ....... - ...he looked at NO ONE, spoke to NO ONE, had on mirrored glasses, and licked a lollipop...he signed my "Symbol" CD (as a 'Symbol' Autograph), and I got NO response. ....NONE........ *NADA.* .....Easily, the WORST Celeb I met. ...I sold the signature in 2018. ...bang, POW ........Thank U, Bryant.......😠 .....

[@EmpressReacts]

😂sounds like the Prince story I would expect to hear

[@RBS_]

@@EmpressReacts ...yep......... ; )

[@darnell49]

Waiting on the book.

[@danielcowan8673]

What tussle with Bryant Gumble??

[@RBS_]

@@danielcowan8673 ...Prince was promoting this compilation on "Today", (in 1994, I mistakenly said "GMA") and SPECIFICALLY told the Producers, '...NO Interviews..' ...after he performed, Bryant ignored the Producers, and asked Prince to sit with him, for an 'Interview'; Prince declined and tried to walk away, but Bryant was putting him on the spot....which made Prince MAD.... ....which, he brought, to Tower Records.....
