Music like a river

So sexy, freedom. So sexy, he couldn’t begin to explain it. Free to put on mascara, paint his lips, glue on long eyelashes to lower, flutter and seduce. Wear any colour, especially purple, but also electric blue, scarlet, glitter-silver and eye-aching lizard green. Strut in ruffles, squeeze in black leather, preen his naked midriff, shake his naked ass out of a yellow jumpsuit. Stack his heels, until his elfin figure became a giant. Dance with a white man, writhe with a black woman, kiss both, couple with either, be both races and sexes and neither in one cat-like, commanding frame. And, along the way, sell more than 100m records worldwide.

Prince Rogers Nelson, musician, died on April 21st, aged 57

Life is hard….the turns change and they trick us sometimes into wanting to just give up. But if u can find ONE, just ONE, somebody who can connect with a piece of you in that exact moment when you’re ready to give up….the fight is won. Somehow freedom from the doom shows up and we get up out of the dark. We crawl into peace again and realize, life is moments of ups and downs. Find someone to grow with and face changes with. Can’t always be picky who can save you from yourself. Accept the help. You never know when the HELP is actually YOU🙄😝🤗❤️☕️👍🏼🤔😔😘

It’s okay to let yourself have bad days. What’s important is that you know to love yourself no matter what. Sometimes things are cheesy and true.

In honor of PIF’s one year anniversary, Creatr Hana Shafi (@thefrizzkid) is Posting it Forward for self-love. Will you?

“The most important thing is to be true to yourself, but I also like danger. That’s what’s missing from pop music today. There’s no excitement or mystery.”

Tyler Perry's Prince Story

"I knew at that moment that I had just been educated by royalty!"

“About 12 years ago, I was playing the Kodak Theater in LA. I was on my way to the theater when my phone rang. I answered and heard a voice that almost made me wreck the car. The voice said, ‘I hear you’re doing a bit of Purple Rain in your show. Do it again and I’m going to sue you… and I need 10 tickets and I’ll be there tonight.’ Click. I freaked out. PRINCE HAD CALLED ME!!!

So that night I waited at the backstage door for him to arrive. I was nervous and hoping he didn’t get out of the car with 9 lawyers… lol. The limo pulls up and there he was. He got out smiling and laughing. I knew then he was joking (kinda). One of the first things he said was that he was a fan of mine. That blew me away. ‘Prince WHAT?’ I thought. Can you say mind numbing?! Anyway, we chatted for a while, but time seemed to fly by. Soon enough, I had to get dressed and start the show.

During the play I would glance at him, and he seemed to be having an awesome time. Man! Prince was watching me perform!! And enjoying it!

Then we got to the part in the play where I had been doing a few lines of Purple Rain. I stopped and looked at him sitting in the audience. We made eye contact and he nodded to me. So, I queued the band to start playing Purple Rain and had someone bring Prince the microphone in the audience… BIG MISTAKE! He started to sing Purple Rain and the audience went CRAZY! I had never heard that kind of roar from a crowd before. 3400 people losing their minds!! He sang one verse and the audience was blown away. There was a standing ovation for him AT MY SHOW…lol. He was done singing and the audience wouldn’t stop applauding him. I still had 20 minutes to go before MY show was over. I knew at that moment that I had just been educated by royalty!! The lesson: never give your microphone to a legend at your show!!! LOL”

Such a rookie move lol

Somewhere Patti is like “Now baby, you don’t pass no mic to somebody like Prince unless it’s benediction time.”
