"Shirts Vs. Blouses..." 

The whole run of Chappelle's Show was greatness but those Prince and Rick James
skits were bigger than life!

[Mister Obvious]

I binged on Chappelle's Show clips on YT lastnight, and there was one I had never seen before...

In March 2022, Third Man Records announced that they had received the rights to release the album, with Ben Blackwell (co-founder of the label) saying "Prince’s people agreed – almost too easy." There have been no updates on the release since July 2022.

So Third Man Records (Jack White) has the rights to Camille (Prince pseudonym)...

I always figured the vault would be albums that were specifically made to be released someday (posthumously or otherwise) rather than early stuff that Prince ultimately didn't even share when he was alive.



Fkn legend, the end of this song is insane.

37:07 if he was reaching out to them to "right his wrongs" then he knew they were going to kill him soon.

From the archive of Prince's 1997 website "love4oneanother.com"...

The 'ism' b hind a symbol

B careful...
Do u ever think about what u b lieve, or do u b lieve whatever bcuz some1 else thinks? What if some1 changed the story long ago...what if some1 lied about the manner in which some1 died?

Early versions of the Gospels (the New Testament books containing accounts of Jesus' death) were written in Greek. These manuscripts say he was xecuted upon a "stauros." The most common definition of the word, according 2 Greek dictionaries and Strong's Concordance (a reference book 4 Biblical word origins), means "a stake, especially a pointed one, often used 4 torture." Death on a stake, sometimes by impalement, other times by hanging or nailing, was a common 4m of Roman capital punishment in Jesus' day. While crucifixions happened in some cultures, the New Testament and other historical accounts tell of his death by stauros, yet not of a perpendicular beam that would have 4med a cross shape.

So y 2day a cross? The symbol has been used thruout the ages by many cultures 2 depict many different gods... it didn't appear as a Christian holy symbol until the third century AD, and even then some churches condemned the idea bcuz they said it had pagan origins. Depiction of Christ's body upon the cross didn't appear 4 another 4 centuries after that!

Perhaps some1, still worshipping the cross 4 its representation of other religions' gods, thought it would b a good worshipful representation of a son of God as well. As their beliefs changed, so did the meaning of the cross until people 4got the pre-history of the story and accepted the symbol as a Christian idol.

We r not ndorsing one religion over another...spirituality needs no such labels. We r merely urging one 2 inspect the ideals that result in idolatry... dive in a little deeper, c what lies within the seenery. What do worshipped symbols really stand 4? Is it the cross that's important, or the Christ?

Not a massive fan of the shorthand Prince used, and old handwritten memorabilia shows he could write "normally" but I have to think there's some kinda deeper reason behind why he chose to stylize his writing this way. That was his right as an artist.

That website had a chatroom (The Holy River Chat) where Prince hung out.

1996.

[Mister Obvious]

And of course there's "Computer Blue" from 1984...



Interesting how "the blue screen of death" became a meme associated with Windows.

Prince was ahead of his time... way ahead. He was very interested in Nostradamus. Seems like he might have been some kind of prophet himself.

1995...



3:56...

Prince esta muerto
Prince esta muerto
Que viva para siempre el Poder de la Nueva Generacion

Prince is dead
Prince is dead
May the Power of the New Generation live forever

[Mister Obvious]

TBH, I'm surprised he lived as long as he did.

[Mister Obvious]

Fucking wild, man.

I knew there was a rabbit hole, but I didn't know it was quite like this.

He collected books by David Icke, Steve Quayle, Art Bell, etc.

We were hanging out in the same circles with Prince and I personally had no idea.

1996...

When you wanna find some isolation
But the tracker you got from vaccination (Keeps playing)
Keeps playing "You'll Never Walk Alone" (Over and over)
They're always listening, especially on the phone

[Mister Obvious]

Oh my God, man.

I need this in ultra HD.
