    Who's Listening To This Jam Controversy From Prince In 2024❤
  • @KuroiHato69
    41 years later and it still sounds awesome!

    In my humble opinion, THIS was the tightest and dopest of all of Prince’s band. I wished that he had never changed from this band. They were funky and even looked the part. Everyone did their part, and did it very well! Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t mind, Wendy, when she joined his band. However, Dez on guitar just gave this band something special. I remember the CONTROVERSY tour because I was frortunate enough to go myself. Prince outdid himself, of course. I miss Prince so much! The music industry just isn’t the same without him. A true artist. Peace.

    "Some ppl wanna die, so they can be free" !!!!..... shit gets me EVERYTIME...SMFH.. prince was tha truth
  • @jjbenavidez6
    The delivery of the "some ppl wanna die.." line is so powerful. This song is essentially Prince's mission statement
  • @winterlongone
    This first 'era' of Prince was so brilliant because the music industry had absolutely no idea what had hit them - or what was about to hit them. He was an amazing musician, composer and social critic - and he hadn't even become a world megastar yet (but was well known in US clubs and R&B rotation). This single was off of his fourth album - "1999" was the very next album, which changed everything. I love his early work.

  • @dbyouthmovement4530
    Prince could create controversy but still remain privately mysterious, such a genius overall

    Prince was so ahead of his time, yet he had his finger on the pulse. Miss him so much
