Prince's $156M Estate Court battle finally ends | Morning in America

[@jenniferalexander5423]

We miss you Prince!💜

[@mariamejia4969]

He left instructions but no Will? Lol

[@purplepixie274]

Been a massive fan for over 35 years. Don't understand why there was no will. Never heard of his sister till he died. Awful ending for him 😣💜

[@donnabush7551]

I believe he didn't have a will, because he didn't care what happened after he transcended to the creator. They will continue to make money off of his legacy. As 1 of his songs says " Money didn't matter yesterday and it sure don't matter tonight ". He was and always will be The G.O.A.T. 💜💜

[@sharonmchugh7730]

Excited to see his work continue. He was a genius.

[@skylarlogan1999]

Nice to see family trying to keep his Legacy alive

[@DonnyNoMarie]

This is what it sounds like when you don't have a will! Other people get to speak for you. People who contributed nothing to your legacy, get to sell 50% of your blood, sweat, and tears to the highest bidder. When was the last time Tyka did an interview? When was the last time she promoted Paisley Park? Took the money and ran?

Prince didn't have a Will? Crazy

[@lesant7659]

Unbelievable that Prince is gone. Rest in peace Prince 💐💐

[@heartstrings7814]

There is no way Prince didn't have a " Will".

[@davidjefferson7911]

I believe it's possible prince was a recluse I don't believe his family supported him because they all thought he was gay they supported the money but not him so he distanced himself away from them he must have felt they didn't deserve his fortune...I can understand that ,over all these yrs I have seen one and only one picture of his family that was his father out of millions of photos of prince now you know something's wrong with that

[@kateskeys]

Prince seemed like such a gentle soul.

[@Chris_L034]

nothing says you care about your legacy like not having a will.

[@robbieogle8622]

I guess he thought he wouldn't die young.

[@canttouchthis6439]

Exactly

[@johnarnold893]

Does not having a will kill his legacy? I think not.

[@canttouchthis6439]

I still do not believe he didn't have a Will. If he left "notes" on how he wanted things done I am sure he left a Will.

[@csandford6011]

I miss Prince very much. My favorite song was Purple Rain.

[@johnwattdotca]

Prince bought a used bank vault and had it installed in his house. Every time he did a recording he took extra tracks and put them in the vault so his family could profit after he passed away. Is there a "2099"?

[@k52638]

Family and close friend's will do you in more than those in the world just for that almighty dollar . No will ? Shut up already ! Damn 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@juneprayswithoutceasing3539]

I am still saddened by his death

[@yvrman1964]

Sometimes you just have to let them be.

[@joesimon2029]

This means your gonna see Prince merchandise come out like they did with Marilyn Monroe and Bob Marley !

[@petra4237]

I'm still having trouble getting my head around the fact there was no will found. It seems so strange for someone who has battled so hard during his live to get complete ownership of his creative work, to not have taken the steps to protect his work beyond his death. Especially because he obviously was aware his end was getting near. I'm happy however to hear he did leave note to his family in what his disire was. I hope they do, and will continue in the future, honor and respect his wishes. And I'm looking forward to hearing more of the treasures hidden in his vaults. They help me get over the grief of losing him... O how I miss this men and his uniqueness!

[@gerardguida7727]

Who you kidding!!!... Its about the CASH.......

[@dyneldillard9804]

Why didn’t he have a will?? This is beyond understanding. These Moneygrubbers and family members I see it more being 156 million.

[@Masterleechan]

6 years what a bunch of crap

[@ernestchacon4928]

It's always about the money, from Hollywood to Washington, that's all...,😆🤣😂😹 !!!

[@classactsexpertiseandinspi4815]

It might be best if Londell allowed the remaining family to sell out to Primary Wave rather than have the estate hindered by amateurism and divisiveness. His "family" were not much help to Prince in his lifetime and he had a will that disinherited some of them, which disappeared from the murder scene because the police did not preserve it as a crime scene at the time.

[@anacro9944]

Quero justiça na morte dele. Tudo muito mal explicado.

[@chriscohen2519]

Finally new music

[@dorothydrake8838]

I would like to ask this friend if Prince’s, who is also a lawyer, why he didn’t strongly encourage Prince to have a will.

[@casie707]

He left directions but not a will...

[@robbieogle8622]

Good news.

[@thapainter11]

Wow.,Thank you!, great things are coming! Prince hears you he's happy

[@tamitatangoto5134]

Mike Gonna,.. I beg to differ.. Prince does not hear. The Bible says that the dead are aware of nothing at all. That's in Ecclesiastes 9:5,6. The Bible also shows that the dead are sleeping in their grave awaiting the RESURRECTION. Acts 24:15,; John 5: 28, 29

[@maryclynch9356]

Why didn't he make a will ? Did he think he would live forever ?

[@robbieogle8622]

I think so. Maybe he was putting it off.

[@johnarnold893]

MC.......maybe he just didn't give a fuck.

[@stephaniemeals4983]

I think not! His plan was he wanted to leave something for his children and that didn't happen.

[@alimartin1000]

Why is this anyone's business 🤦 Smh.... This is why it's best to keep the fortune but stay FAR AWAY from the fame!!!

Shame an attorney says "gonna" when speaking in public.

Prince was not fucking with his family members that’s why he didn’t leave it all tj them originally. That was the whole Thing in 2016 when he died

All that money, and yet the "plight" of the Black man in poverty hasn't changed. The take away is that once people have made their dough, the rest of their people can suck it. So much for "equity and justice." It's all a sham.

[@u.synlig]

“Their people”? His family - his people - receive a share of his estate. [As for the rest - entitlement is poison. Grow your own talents, and build your own legacy.]

[@darz3829]

@@u.synlig I'm not seeing articles that cry about his family. I see plenty about how Blacks are impoverished. What I'm saying is once a Black star gets zillions they do very little to help their own race. Now I don't have a problem with that - just stop spreading lies.

[@u.synlig]

@@darz3829 Sounds like you’re building your very own ‘Give-me-a-handout’ straw man. Sorry I interfered. Before I exit, I’ll just say that I’ve seen and heard _many_ musicians - both new and old - who praised and thanked Prince for _giving them opportunity and encouragement_ to develop their talents, and to succeed in their own right. The grateful recipients of his career-assist were of several races (including Black, and even mixed-race - like Prince). He was never “indifferent.” However, it is strange that you think that each person should ‘represent’, or ‘stand for’, or ‘give an accounting for/to’, or ‘be held responsible for’ *everyone else* who self-identifies by the same racial category? What? That’s just nonsensical! (Also, such an expectation is far from the meaning of either “equity” or “justice”.)

[@darz3829]

@@u.synlig Wow, you missed the mark about my comment by a mile. Here it is - I don't care how much money artists or their families make. Obviously it can be millions. What I upset about is all of the hand-wringing about race and its "disproportionate" poverty. It seems that Blacks and whites all make a lot and make very little - most of the time it's by their decisions. But Blacks are disproportionate in who they blame. Racism and slavery top the list. If that complaint is true, when Blacks who join in on the "rights" bandwagon yet buys houses and bling instead of doing something substantative with their money, I can't accept the propaganda as true. So make the dough but don't ask for reparations and handouts from governments and lawsuits.
