bouche Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Prince launched http://www.lotusflow3r.com today. He's got 3 albums that are available to download now. There are mixed reviews. Likely, the more you like prince, the more accepting you'll be. I dunno. I haven't heard them yet, but I will before the day is through.If you want to join, not only do you have to pay a membership fee, but you have to solve a riddle and fill in a concert ticket's date and location. Here's the answer if you care1986/Los AngelesFor most people, the site will just be really confusing. Don't even bother trying to use it if you have problems with more than one forum **Cough **** Velvet *** Cough!here's an article from Rollingstone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouche Posted March 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 yeah, like prince didn't blow both their heads off before. Sounds like they're in highschool again, missing prince only to realize when they're in their forty's just how amazing he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esau. Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 I'm sorry but any artist who sues his own fans for using photos on their fan site really get no respect/money or support from me, regardless of his talents (which I'm not questioning). But hey, thats just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted March 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 I totally agree that it was a brutal and disrespectful move. He always manages to refer to his hardcore fanbase as his TRUE fans. These are the ones that buy a membership to his new site on day one (including me). However, these are the same people that he sent 'cease and desist' notices to regarding hosting multimedia. It still stands. I think he may have had done that in preparation for his new site and some phobia that he may have based upon losing control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velvet Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 I'll bet Prince hasn't laid down a cent for a new cd in decades.Also, when he changed his name and Bob Wiseman tried to take it over Bob had lawyers breathing down his neck.It seems that a lifetime of fame has skewered the man's perspective.

Esau. Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 However, these are the same people that he sent 'cease and desist' notices to regarding hosting multimedia. It still stands. I think he may have had done that in preparation for his new site and some phobia that he may have based upon losing control. Um, not just multi-media, anything "linked to his likeness" (quoted from cease & desist order). This included pictures of fan made art (eg: drawings, paintings), the fans' own photographs of him, pictures of tattoos people got and even pictures of custom license plates.I'm sorry but an argument of him "losing control" would be complete BS. Why go after the folks giving him massive free promotion and not the scammers making actual profit off his name? Only reason I can figure is because he wanted to make even more money off his "true fans" by shutting down fan forums and making the "true fans" pay to join a website. Basically, its seems Prince is the musical equivalent of sciencetology, the more you pay the truer fan you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
