[@alfredbridgeman6102]

Prince was above all musicians because of his talent, love, rareness and musical groups he created there will never be a another!!!!!!!

[@zendavis3501]

He was shy.

[@divinedestiny2985]

[@tashajames432]

Divine Destiny hell yeah, purple love forever

[@juanitanieveswebb3510]

Absolutely!!! He will always be #1 to me!!! Always!!!❤❤

[@chellybabyme]

Well wasn't that John Mayer's simple assessment? Really, What. In. The. World. Could. He. Know, shallow as he is?

[@kittymariek]

I don't know why they try to put him in one category.

[@rachelsahar3036]

An amazing artist who broke many barriers and rose above it all as a genius who believed in God/Jehova

[@geraldinewalker1963]

Prince was a firecracker 🧨 artist ❤️ he loved his profession he loves expressing himself well through his music and talent he was Mega smart and determined to make his own way in the world and he nailed it so versatile and enchanting rest easy Prince we 💕 love you this is Geraldine Walker from Saginaw Michigan

[@TrayTribeIt]

This man changed my life, i was devastated when he left this world.

[@danacarter9147]

I was devastated as you we're when I heard about his sudden passing; but we know that there are two things that remind us that he is with us, in spirit: his music, purple, his signature color.💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@hortyrexach6460]

Incredible genius ... like no other!!

[@shenyaet3350]

Prince definitely knew how to move that little body and rock that guitar 🎸🎶🎤💜

[@jschuler53]

I remember first seeing Prince on MTV and my brother and I were transfixed..he was wearing these heels and had this creative, this mystifying and beautiful fashion sense and the way he moved and his songs were amazing. I like it when performers get dressed to perform, not these grunge tee shirts and jeans...he had a great costume sense. My favorite is still Raspberry Beret and of course, Purple Rain. When Doves Cry is pure genius. RB was written by Lisa and Wendy--who are now married to each other. They were both uber talented. He had the most diverse band at a time when nobody was even thinking of this. He launched careers of others and wrote many songs for others. I have always been impressed by how he featured female talent in a major way, from Sheila E, to Wendy and Lisa and other women who played in his band. "Dripping with sex.." well yeah...All Tipper Gore and her censoring organization was to help sell more of Prince's albums. He is the best artist to come out of the 1980s. RIP, he contributed so much and will always be missed. I recently heard Etta James do a version of Purple Rain, she did a great cover. It is an iconic song that will be sustain.

[@chellybabyme]

Tyfs, cool.

[@terrydickson8020]

WHAT ICON OF ARTISTS PRINCE WAS STILL IS .GIFT ARTIST OF ALL TIME 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷😘😘😘😘😘😘🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹😎😎😎😎😎😎

[@ginamulligan4401]

He was so amazing and I will forever miss his abilities. 💜☔

[@kaikeena423]

Today, I have finally cried. It took a long time for me to realize why I had to just allow myself to just cry. If it were not for Prince, I would have always believed that God was just a fairy tale. I would have stayed a junkie. I would never have had two sons. I would have never been able to make music. Never. Thank you, Prince Roger Nelson, for showing the world a Black Man.... Word up.... Thank you..... And by the way, a lot of the those people who were at that Rolling Stones show in LA IN 82, are at a loss today because of your passing. Just like me....

[@josephwilliams3005]

Kai Keena wow !!! I love this it made me cry as well I can just image what you will do once u visit paisley park .. better take some tissues ... god bless u take care .. Prince was an awesome musician and an awesome person in deed

[@HeliOSoul]

he was Mozart re-incarnated...

[@ale347baker]

Yessss, or modern-day Mozart

[@17purpledays87]

No, Mozart was the musical genius of the 17th century. Prince was the musical genius of the 20th century.

[@shenyaet3350]

I miss him soo much. He was Gorgeous 💜💜💜

[@shenyaet3350]

Prince was definitely inspired by James brown. Not Elvis. I can tell through some of his dance moves. Prince was soo incredibly talented. He embodied the definition of real music 🎶💜💜💜

[@zendavis3501]

I promise I just typed that lol. He definitely never ever mentioned Elvis smh. Whoever Bob is, he obviously hasn’t got a clue about Prince.

[@chippy7745]

Bob Cavallo was on Prince’s management team from ‘79 to ‘89 and aided Prince in putting his many unique dreams into action. He had the full freedom to express himself with Bob’s help and that he did. He also was one of the Producers of Purple Rain (the movie). Prince liked him.

[@intellectualrebel5340]

His dancing idol was James Brown, but he wanted to be Elvis in a sense of outrageousness and controversy. He said that pop music if his time lacked danger, that nobody was sneaking to those forbidden concerts, like in Elvis' times. Just think about it: as long as your parents are somehow liberal, you can let them know that you listen to Michael Jackson but Prince? Unless they're Prince fans themselves, no way in hell.

[@chrismcevoy2503]

I loved Raspberry Beret. RIP Prince (1958-2016)

[@MissVa-sb5gh]

Prince was very strong in his faith.he knew Jehovah God will keep him in his memory during the resurrection ❤.sleep on brother nelson.we dont have long.no more sickness death aches or pains.the former things will have passed away.

[@brigittemadison9828]

I feel there will never be another prince rest in Christ my brother

[@roxanneworld11]

+brigitte madison ..indeed: in christ consciousness..in love..in heart-mind power..i miss already knowing we lived in the same 'world-that-we-think-we-are' with him...one day, in some moment outside of space and time, i will, we will all i pray, understand..

[@nancymurphy7760]

He was the best !!! Miss him so much ! My favorite all times I'm going to be 60 this yr the best ever !!!! Miss him so much when doves cry !!!

[@aishak.staggers2483]

I should be seeing this in 2046, not 2016 😢

[@Einnor084]

Aisha K. Staggers REAL TAWK!!!

[@blueskye6372]

Seeing in July 2020. 💜💜💜🎶🎶

[@shenyaet3350]

Prince actually created, arranged, wrote and produces his own 🎶🎼 He barely sampled anyone else’s, because he loved beyond creative and doing things his way. Elvis was a culture vulture who has stolen lots of music from other black artist. Stop putting them in the same category. It’s disrespectful to Prince and all of his hard work.

[@brittneybutler2491]

THIS!☝☝

[@victorywin1594]

Today brought me to this video. RIP Prince 💜💜 2016 will never be the same since you left. Today 2023 is still not the same truly missed.

[@KimberlySmith-iy8bi]

Freedom.. Is much more than you think... Freedom... Was Prince

[@michaeldennistooley4271]

How I love you beautiful brother rest in ☮️

[@moniemone5824]

His name was PRINCE but he was my KING!🥰😍😘🔥🙌🏽🎉🎊😭

[@zendavis3501]

This dude said “ He wanted to be Elvis” lol. They should’ve edited that part out because, i’am a Prince historian and I’ve never ever heard him reference Elvis as an Influencer. James Brown, Sly and the family stone, Joni Mitchell, Carlos Santa etc etc but… Never Elvis lol

[@breefonseca7906]

[@DevonSmithLOVES2BLOVED]

where was part 1 ?

[@sneakyrabbit3465]

Where's part 1?

[@SUGAR_XYLER]

the new generation don't know who he is due to his selfishness of not allowing his videos on KZbin

[@mellodee123]

I'm sure you know people that have bootleg copies of his songs. People wanted to emulate his style. He made it hard for them to do it. They had to come up with their own style. They had to work for it. That man's worth over 300 million. IDK.....sounds like he won all away around. RIP

[@SUGAR_XYLER]

mellodee123 no, some people just wanted to listen to his damn songs but couldn't do it

[@mellodee123]

SUGAR XYLER then buy them.

[@Luvie1980]

+SUGAR XYLER He was far from selfish. He was a true artist. The new generation can go out an BUY his albums is they want to know he is. GFY!

[@mellodee123]

Luvie1980 they don't get it.

I DON'T BELIEVE JE WANT TO BE ELVIS.🤔

[@nomountainNOM]

Prince Was Music Made Manifest In Flesh, A Prophet, A Dove, A Sign O' the Time, 2 say anything less than is disappointing & a clear indication 2 one's ignorance, blindness, & deafness. In other words...Dark.

[@dangelooliver4086]

Why is this white dude lying about prince asking him if he needed to learn to rap!? Prinnce was Prince and everyone wanted to be like him, even white people. He was a black artist with a perm that was the best ever at what he did. Elvis wasn't on the same level as he and MJ. Elvis ripped alot of black musicians off , little Richard, Chuck Barry, fats Domino. James Brown was to smart to have them ripp him off.
