IT’S BEEN JUST over a week since we lost music legend Prince.
With news today that his secret vaults may include ‘enough music to release a new album every year for the next century’, he’s not quite leaving us yet.

The artist is Donal Thornton of Practice and Theory, and it’s proving very popular with Dubliners.
The Sugar Club itself is screening Prince’s Sign O The Times concert movie next Saturday the 11th, and it’s one not to be missed.

So Bill Cosby is an suspected racist rapist now????…..
Sure all written media is black and white,
Unless you have coloured print….
He brings up the black media but they have as much interest in the black women who were allegedly assaulted.
Does this smell like to chloroform to you?
So he thinks black media treats him nicer than general media…
Is he implying that general media treats him negatively because he’s black? As in he considers this a race issue?
I’d be more inclined to say that black media is reluctant to call him a rapist, because it itself is racist in favour of blacks.
Regardless, it’s a smart move for him to say that, the pragressives won’t know what to do. Continue calling him a rapist out of fear of being labeled a rape apologist by their peers or stop slamming him out of fear of being called a racist.
But wouldn’t the black media actually be reluctant to call him a rapist, in case they were accused of simply calling him a rapist to avoid being accused of racism because they refused to call him a rapist because he’s black?
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN????
Tis a tad confusing to say the least.
He is the one that brought race into it, some people are so fooled and deluded……
Was it the same “black media” which upheld the standards when OJ was on trial for murder?
Let the courts try him
No David it’s not because these are new allegations and numerous
He sounds racist against white people.
When did trial by media take over the justice system jnstead of trial in a court of law ?
Alas Mark he actually cannot be tried as the Statute of Limitations saves him from a Trial. All that can be done is a civil case, which will never say he actually committed the crime, it will just say on the balance of probabilities that he may have and is thus liable financially, but will not be convicted or see any jail time.
If I ever get into trouble with the law can I use the black media to back me up?
Typical black man Mike. What’s that supposed to mean?
Chip on shoulder
Filthy pervert
Trial by media going on here. He must have pissed the system off somehow
Why is he bringing race into it hoping it will save his ass
I think that’s his indirect way of looking to the “Black media” for backup. Kinda makes you feel like he’s bracing himself.
It’s just J E L L O
have your say
