What Was In Prince’s Refrigerator And Other Facts

Yes, I was a fan of Prince. A lot of people were. I got a chance to see him 4 times in 1 week back in 1984. That's what the tickets stubs were from.
When I heard the news, I was really hoping it would be some stupid internet hoax. After the networks started to verify the story, I was overwhelmed with sadness. There;s something about the power of music that you just can't describe. Certain songs fill you with joy and happiness and they will be forever ingrained in your soul.
Prince sold over 100 million albums and he was true to his craft. When he had his tiff with Warner Brothers, apparently, under his contract, they owned his name and would not let him use his own name. Imagine that. that's when he used the 'Symbol' for his name. After the riff was settled, he reverted back to his name.
