Rest In Peace to Prince
I'm old enough to remember when he signed the huge deal with Warner Bros. Was the biggest contract in history and lot of hooplah about it. Strings attached to that kind of money, and I don't either side ever understood the other.
Prince's public comments about race and business after that are notably different than what he was saying before that.

Everyone who sees the industry for what it is says the same thing, yet people still don't hear em:
Whats crazy is the advent of the net just further enslaved those it purported to liberate... Let that marinate.

If you watch Xs interviews from the time he saved Def Jam and got nothing onwards you'll see how clear and unvarnished he lays out the nature of the Game that is the music business.
Many, many artists have spoke on the same topic but I like what Patrice said best as he peeped Game and kept his distance to become a legend in his own way without the strings or owing favors to the execs who placed him in the house with the Bent only to control him:
Prince was exceedingly vocal about it in ways both subtle and direct. MJ said the same thing as have countless others but no one wants to address what is so obvious when it comes to the true nature of this as well as the larger implications...

'The Night I Fell in Love' is the GOAT R&B album
Prince was (is) my musical hero, but I believe early in his career, he thought his immense talent could transcend race. Later on, he found that he was the latest in a line of talented and influential black artists who would be allowed a degree of artistic freedom, but be placed in financial servitude. Once he separated the music from the business, he started to change.
