Hopefully give up music and go off and die somewhere of old age without subjecting the world to his crap.

--The whole concept of government granted and government regulated 'permits' and the accompanying government mandate for government approved firearms 'training' prior to being blessed by government with the privilege to carry arms in a government approved and regulated manner, flies directly in the face of the fundamental right to keep and bear arms.

Do you think Prince was the only one to deny permission to parody?

In his "Behind the Music" he talked about Coolio getting mad about "Amish Paradise". He said "he still cashed the check I wrote him though..." lol

About to eat your Avatar...

Weird Al is simply awesome-sauce.

That is absolutely hilarious about Prince though, especially since Weird Al just kept on asking.

"How about now? No? Okay... How about this one? No? Okay... This one? No?".

Freaking hilarious.

Pretty funny about Coolio though . This is definitely one of his best parodies .

Actually, it isn't.
He changed his name to asymbol when he was stuck in a contract with... whoever... that he didn't like. he didn't want them using his name.
When he finally finished the contract, he changed it back.

Prince could change his name to the Eye of Horus symbol and his music would still suck and his ability to wail louder than most 4yo's I know would still irritate my nerves.

Prince can do nothing to be cool IMO except disappear from the music scene.

The artist who has always been known as Crap is what I call him.

No offense to anyone who likes Prince. I just don't think guys should EVER sing like girls or sound girly when they sing.

Just my opinion.

Some of Prince's songs are great porno grooves. They have their uses:
