I have loved Prince since I was a little girl; I was at the precipice of my “mental awakening” to the world around me, it was this man who entered my world at the very moment my young mind was opening up to the concept of my universe; my surroundings. All humans go through this;
Two years. Two years!? An instant and an eternity… Wasn’t it only yesterday that I viewed the When Doves Cry video for the first time? Although it wasn’t the first time I saw you, it was the first time I SAW you. Pleasing to the eye, to be sure (watching you rise up out of

On February 9, 2017, we were informed of the deal between UMPG and Prince’s estate.
