Il met un point final à toute comparaison entre PRINCE ET MJ…

MJ # PRINCE

La star sur laquelle je vais m'exprimer, je l'appellerais tout simplement MJ, car en toute franchise, j'ai si peu d'égard pour l'attention qui lui est portée que prononcer son nom entier m'épuise…

MJ : sa musique ne m'a jamais épaté, à part le superbement calibré "Billy Jean" (son clip d'ailleurs le plus sobre de sa carrière). Pendant que tout le monde - critiques Rock (& Folk…) comprises - déliraient exagérément sur le lourdingue Thriller (qui a viellie à mort, il faut le dire, et doit probablement sa légende à son opportuniste vidéo-clip), j'était plutôt exité par les prémisses de la techno et de l'EuroDAnce (gratitude aux défuntes Radio 7 et Radio Maxximum) et de l'electro-NewWave de 1982 à 1994. Déjà "Irrisistible Bitch" et "Erotic City" de Prince m'avaient scotché, alors qu'à la maison, c'était plutôt la bonne variétoche francophone…
Je considère MJ comme un phénomène pitoyable qui cache les ténèbres du Show-Business (Je puorrais raconter un témoignage douteux sur lui, reçu au hasard de ma vie, mais procès pour diffamation oblige…).
Humainement, il est l'Amérique transgénique, maladivement impérialiste. Je n'ai jamais compris que des (gosses) noirs aient pu vénerer ce malade milliardaire javelisé et profondément malhonète. MJ n'a ni inventé le BreakDance (avec son Moonwalk) ni la Pop blanche (aujopurd'hui Mac Cartney le déteste), et ses croassement de grenouille étranglée sont loin d'être exceptionnels. Hélas, les esprits fragils sont souvent fassinés par les Vampires Sidérants du Marketing : Milène Farmer en tête pour la France et MJ pour les USA !
Musicalement, rien chez MJ ne m'épatte, je lui préfère encore Steevy Wonder, qui sait pourtant être lui aussi un parfait somnifère…
En fait, MJ a été proclamé "Roi de la Pop" par MTV. Et quand on vois quelle bouillie lobotomisante est MTV, ç'est pas très royal… Je ne me fais aucun souçi sur le piètre héritage "culturel" qu'MJ laissera derrière lui. Tous ces propos qui feront hurler les fans du Monsieur Gris, je les pensait avant même d'être un fan de Prince. Bref, circulez, il n'y a plus rien à voir !
La carrière tant controversée de Prince… Un vraie roman plein de surprises. N'écoutez pas les critiques "musicales" et oubliez les charts. Depuis les années '90, c'est l'ère des statistiques virtuelles sur le - très - court terme qui dominent. On vénère les starlettes fraichement sorties d'usines (le Loft, Star Academy).
Le Top 50 de Canal + était digne parceque vraie : quand Prince y était, il a été plusieurs fois très bien placé (When Doves Cry, Kiss, Boys And Girls, Batman…), les clips passaient entièrement,et sans chichi. Le top 50 est mort et les vrais chiffres avec. Aujourd'hui le chaos règne dans paysage musical et social, comme l'hurle Marylin Manson. Qui marche, combien de temps, pour qui ? Peut-on confirmer que le dernier MJ s'est mieux vendu que le dernier Britney Spears ?
Fantasmé par certains esprits mal placés sur orbite, un duo MJ et Prince est l'opposé absolue de la vision musicale de Prince, qui base ses relations sur la sincèrité et la richesse sonore. Madona aime bien Prince, et vice-versa, ils ont d'ailleurs des points en commun, ce qui explique leur duo, mais MJ… Un vraie fan de Prince ne peut pas mettre MJ à égalité avec Prince. Prince est un Artiste qui crée et joue de la musique au quotidien intensément et sans compter depuis plus de 30 ans ! MJ a attendu 10 ans pour sortir une pompe à fric dans l'air du temps tandis que Prince sort une expérience musicale ! Quant au réèl impact de Prince, le dernier - percutant - Britney Spears "Slave 4 U" et le - fort beau - Jeniffer Lopez "I am Real", c'est du funky Prince à fond, pour qui connait ses classiques !
Les critiques Rock ont déscendu Prince quand il s'est montré trop DIFFEREND, BYSARE. "le Love Symbol : un suicide commercial", disaient-ils. Tous ces musicologues ratés ne savent aujourd'hui que penser de cette icone Pop en passe de (re) devenir une Superstar de l'alernatif ! Quand à ses CD des années 90, les plus jeunes les apprécient car ils leur parle. Pour ma part, j'ai écouté les critiques et boudé ces albums, qu'on jugeait trop rap et trop personnels : aujourd'hui, c'est un comble d'être introspectif dans le monde Rock!. Cachez-moi ces tripes, quelle horreur ! Aujourd'hui, on est correctes : que de la décadence calculée et surtout pas de morale, par pitié ! Avec des remarques du genre "Prince ne devrait pas étaler ses états-d'âmes sur 4 albums par an", sûr que le Rock est mort et que les trois quarts des artistes Rock et Soul cultes doivent s'en retourner dans leur tombe…
Ainsi, ce n'est que bien après leur sortie que j'ai écouté GOLD, Diamond & Pearls, Come… et combien je regrette de ne pas les avoir dévoré plus tôt !
Emancipation et Crystal Ball sont un régal pour qui aime picorer les merveilles créatives jettées par Prince au grée de sa fantaisie. Prince est la générosité même, malgré son côté capricieux et "Nasty". Cet homme est bon car il cherche LA vérité, effort que peux d'hommes et de femmes font. Emancipation rassemble tous les sentiments qu'un être humain peut éprouver : la joie, la douleur, la mélancolie, la folie, la passion amoureuse, le divin et j'en passe… N'oubliez pas que Prince a tout de même été une Superstar mondiale (et l'est toujours mais nettement moins médiatisée), mais que dés ses débuts à 18 ans, il n'a jamais fait UNE concession sur son indépendance créative (il était le plus jeune compositeur-instrumentiste-producteur de l'époque). Je pense ainsi que TRC est le "For You" de sa 2ème carrière. Un premier album jazzy, avec du Hard Rock et du Funk à la Steevy Wonder du début.
Oui, Prince démarre une deuxième carrière, et ce jeune homme vas montrer au monde la mesure de son génie. Quand le commercial atteint l'exaspération, l'alternative s'impose…

It's willing to put a final point to the stupid comparison between MJ and Prince.

MJ # PRINCE

MJ: his music never astounded me, aside the superb "Billy Jean" (his most sober video of his career). While all the whole Rock critics exaggeratedly raved on the heavy "Thriller" (that sounds old to death, nowadays, it is necessary to say so, and probably ows its legend to its opportunist video), I was rather excited by premises of the techno music, EuroDAnce, and the electro-NewWave from 1982 to 1994. Already the "Irrisistible Bitch" and "Erotic City"of Prince stroke me, while at the family house, it was rather the popular French-speaking songs.
I considers MJ as a pitiful phenomenon that hides darkness of the Show-Business (I could tell a doubtful testimony on it, but I don't need for defamation).
Humanly, MJ is a deadly American imperialist. I have never understood that the black kids have been able to admire this sick multimillionaire, white colored and great liar. However, MJ has not invented the BreakDance (with his Moonwalk) neither the Pop Music (Paul MacCartney hates him), and his strangled frog cawings are far from being exceptional. Pityfully, fragile minds are often fassinated by Marketing Vampires.
Musically, nothing in MJ astounds me, I prefer Steevy Wonder, that nevertheless is sometimes soporific.
In fact, MJ has been proclaimed"King the Pop"by MTV. And when one see what a crap gruel MTV is, it's not very royal… I don't worry on the wretched "cultural" inheritance that MJ will leave behind him. This article will irritate fans of the "Gray Sir", but I thought all of this well before I become a Prince fan. Regarding MJ, go by, nothing to see in here!
The so controversial career of Prince. A true full surprise novel. Don't give a damn of "musical" critic"and forget the charts. Since the 90s, it is the potential statistic era on the-very-short term that dominates. One venerates starlettes freshly made in factories ("Real" Shows, singing porno-babes).
Prince hitted several times europeen charts (When Doves Cry, Kiss, Boys And Girls, Batman…), the videos were played entirely, and without any silly comments. Today the chaos reigns in social and musical landscape, as cryes Marylin Manson. Which "artist" sell, how much time, for that? Can-one to confirm that the last MJ has better sold that the last Britney Spears?
Some badly spirits rumored a duet MJ and Prince. This thing is the absolute opposite of the musical Prince vision, based on relationships and artistic engagement. Madona likes Prince, they both have points in common, that explains their duet, but MJ, how a true fan of Prince can put MJ to equality with Prince. Prince is an Artist that daily creates and feel the music without counting days since more than 30 years! MJ has waited 10 years to released a money-making CD while Prince releases a musical experience! For the real impact of Prince, the last -powerfull- Britney Spears "Slav 4 U" and the-beautiful- Jeniffer Lopez "I am Real", it is the funky Prince fully that inspired those bombs!
Critics shooted Prince when he started to be too different, BYSARE. " the Love Symbol: a commercial suicide", they said. All these bad musicologists don't know twhat to thinknow of this Pop icon which is re(becoming) become an alternative Superstar! Regarding his 90's CDs kids appreciate them because they still strike. For my part, I have listened critics and ignored these albums, that one judged too rap and too personal: today, it is a shame to be introspective in the Rock world!. Hide-me these guts, what horror! Today, one is correct: calculated decadence only and especially no morality, please! With remarks such as "Prince should not display his state of mind on 4 records a year", sure that Rock is dead and that the three-quarters of Rock and Soul cult artists should stay in their tomb…
Thus, this is only well after their release that I have listened GOLD, Diamond& Pearls, Come… How much I regret not to have devoured them earlier!
Emancipation and Crystal Ball are a wonder to those who like to pick creative wonders thrown away by Prince. Prince is the even generosity, despite his capricious and"Nasty" appearance. This man is good because he is looking for THE truth, an effort that not so many can men and women do. Emancipation gathers all feelings that a human can feel: the joy, the pain, the melancholy, the madness, the Love passion, the divine and many more…
Do not forget that Prince has been a worldwide Superstar (and he always is but with a clearly less mediatic exposure), and since his debuts at 18 years old, he has never made any concession on his creative independence (he was the youngest composer-producer of the period). I think TRC is the "For You" of his second career. A first jazzy album , with the Hard Rock and the Funk (Steevy Wonder of the debut).
Yes, Prince starts a second career, and kids are going to measures the real genius. Napster proved it by putin the bootleggs online.When the commercial reaches exasperation, alternative is required

Mensonges américains, noir combat

"La mode de vie Américain" peut toujours scintiller, l'Amérique est bâtie sur le seul crime.
Au contraire, le reste du monde (que les americains ignorent la plupart du temps, puisque l'école n'y forme que des américains), est fait d'une longue histoire pétrie de générations et n'a commit qu'ultérieurement des crimes sur d'autres civilisations. L'Amérique s'est directement dressée sur une nation violée : la Nation Indienne. Depuis, l'Amérique n'a créee que fausses valeurs (le bien OU le mal) et mensonges.

-LE PREMIER MENSONGE est le scalpe. Les américains prétendaient que les indiens scalpaient les hommes blancs, mais la Vérité révéla que c'était les hommes blancs qui avaient fait un tel acte de barbarie.
-Le DEUXIÈME MENSONGE - le plus grand, en fait - était le deux guerres mondiales. L'Amérique vint tout à la fin des deux guerres, se présentant comme LE (super) héros. Des millions de morts plus tard, les USA se proclamaient Grande Gendarmerie Mondiale.
-LE TROISIÈME MENSONGE était l'abolition de l'esclavage pour les noirs. Tous les génies de la courte histoire américaine sont noirs : Hendrix, Martin Luther King, James Brown, Prince, Karl Lewis, Samy Davis…  femmes et hommes Noirs devenaient de plus fort et plus forts : une menace réelle pour les projets de la Nation. Ainsi, ils créèrent le lavage de cerveau "Je suis fier d'être un americain". Le 11 september 2001 était le pire exemple de cette manipulation mentale. Noir, indiens, asiatiques, arabes… tous pleuraient leur sœurs et frères morts et se sentaient Une Nation Unie. Naïfs ils étaient puisque le 11 september 2001 était un des achèvement de la machination américaine. Certains gens disent qu'il n'y a pas 3000 morts sous les "Tours Mondiales Du centre De commerce", mais 26 000… L'Amérique a sacrifié trop de peuples pour sa propagande impérialiste.
-LE QUATRIÈME MENSONGE est appelé "11". Quand 1 + 1 = mort pour le pétrole. Ben Laden, un gorille de la CIA, était supposé cacher une des plus sombre action américaine : la conquête du pétrole du Moyen Orient (Koweit), Irak, Iran, Tajikistan, Algérie, Lybie et Niger. Le pétrole est l'or noir que réclame les plus obscures intentions.
-LE CINQUIÈMME MENSONGE est appelé "Système Marketing", propagé dans le monde afin de posséder l'économie du plus vieux continent : l'Europe, grâce aux complices de l'hyper-capitalisme. Par l'exemple, la France appartient désormais aux retraités D'Amérique au bénéfice des fonds de pension…

ASSEZ DE MENSONGES ! Il est temps de dire la VÉRITÉ. Les noirs sont en nombre supérieur aux blancs. Les peuples de couleur sont pareillement inteligents aux blancs, et usent davantage encore de fantaisie et d'énergie naturelle. C'est pourquoi l'Afrique est gardée sous des conflits sans fins, sciemment organisés.
Les fusils, le nucléaire, l'Anthrax, les apartheids virtuels, les expérimentations non-humaines… La CIA faisait le travail secret (tirer kenedy, les dirigeants noirs et artistes pronant diverses émancipations), et le lobby Israelien soutient la propagande dans avec l'Image (Superman, Independance Day, MIB…). Explication : les noirs s'appelleront eux-mêmes "nêgres" et se livreront au combat tribal comme leurs frères de la jungle. De plus, ils lècheront le cul des Businessmen blancs en consommant l'attirail américain totalement superficiel ! Par superficiel vous pouvez comprendre : rap crétin, pétasses noires et vêtements trop larges ou trop étroits (comme si les noirs ne méritaient aucun vêtement seillant !) Mais un jour nous savont, et certaines soeurs et frères blancs savent que : " la soi-disante minorité devient la majorité dans le clignement d'un oeil. Cette action causera une Réaction ou Résistance. Autrement dit, ON NE PEUT PAS SERVIR 2 MAÎTRES " - Prince, TRC, 2001.
Vous êtes ce que vous êtes, et pas ce qu'ils prétendent que vous êtes, tout comme vous mêmes n'êtes pas ce que vous prétendez être. Le seul et unique Maître sait.
Puisse Dieu pardonner l'Amérique.

White lies, black fights

The "American Way Of Life" might be glittering, but America is still built on the only crime.
At the opposite, the rest of the world (that americans ignore most of the time), is made of long history of generations and it commited crimes on other civilisations on the very late.
America is directly raised on a raped nation: the Indian Nation. Since, America created fake values(the Good OR bad) and lies:

- THE FIRST LIE is the scalp. They pretended that indians scalped white men, but the Truth later revealed that it was the white men who made such a barbarian action.
- The SECOND LIE - the biggest, in fact - was the two worldwide wars. America came up at the very end of wars, presenting itself as THE heroe. Millions deads later, USA was self-proclamed BIG Worldwide Police Company.
- THE THIRD LIE was the slavery abolition for black people. All american genius in the american history are black : Hendrix, Martin Luther King, James Brown, Prince, Karl Lewis, Samy Davis… Black men and women became to get stronger and stronger: a real menace 4 the Nation Project. So they created the brainwashing "I'm proud to be american". The 11th of september 2001 was the worse example of this mental manipulation. Black, indians, asian, arabs… they all cried for their dead brothers and felt bound altogether in One United Nation. Naive they were as the 11th of september 2001 was one of the american machination achievment. Some people say that there were not 3000 deads under the World Trade Center Towers, but 26 000… America sacrified too many people for its big empire propaganda.
- THE FOURTH LIE is called "11". When 1+1=death for patrol. Ben Laden, the CIA's gorilla, was supposed to hide one of the darkest american action ever: the conquest of patrol from the Midle East (Koweit), Iraq, Iran, Tajikistan, Algeria, Libia and Nigeria. Patrol is the black gold that needs dark intentions.
- THE FIETH LIE is called "Marketing System", spread all over the world to possess oldest countries's economy by hyper-capitalism. By example, France now belongs to America's retired people in benefit of pension funds…

NO MORE LIES. It's time to tell the TRUTH. Black people are in numerous superior to white men. Colored people are as inteligent as white men, and they even go further by using high fantasy and natural energy. That's the reason why Africa is kept under everlasting conflicts.
Guns, nuclear bombs, Anthrax, virtual apartheids, unhuman experiences… The CIA did the secret job (shoutin' down kenedy, black Leaders and other Emancipation leaders), and the Israelian lobby did the propaganda in pictures (Superman, Independance Day, M.I.B…). In explanation : black people will call themselves niggers and fight like their jungle brothers. Moreover, they will lick Big Business' ass by consuming american only totally superficial stuff. By superficial you can understand: crap rap, nigger whores and too big or too tight clothes (as if black people would'nt deserve any fitin' clothe…) But one day we know, and some white brothers and sisters know too: "… the so-called minority becames majority in the wink of an eye. This action will cause a Reaction or Resistance. In other words, ONE CAN NOT SERVE 2 MASTERS" - Prince, TRC, 2001.
You are what you are, and not what they pretend, as you don't even are what you pretend 2 be… The one and only Master knows.
Might God forsake America.

F.A.Q. for Americans travelling to France 

0 - Is the Marschall plan over in Europe?

For those who knows what it is, yes it's over and we thank you.

1- Are the French arrogant ?

No, if you politely say 'bonjour' et 'merci' when asking for something, and try to speak Queen's English slowly.(We don't even expect you to speak french!).
These animals usually don't bite.

2 - Why french does only speak french?

You may understand that English or American is not the worlwide language so far (except for buisiness).
English is only the third spoken language in U.E. (after German and French)

3 - Why did I get bothered by Authorities?

As you may not know, American Constitution does not apply worlwide, but only to U.S.A..
Elsewhere you have to follow the national and european laws, and make sure you don't think Europe is an other state of the USA.

4 - Am I at home outside the US?

You will be welcome everywhere if you behave like a visitor, not like a conquerant.
U.S. is not the center of the World. (you may have been told that at school). Ask the Chinese…
Also you need to undertsand that Europe is an Ooooold continent with social traditions based on mutal respect and friendship, not on how bif is your car, your house and how much money you are making.
Our neighboor is likely to be a friend, not an ennemy or a competitor.
If you see somebody falling in the street it's welcome to help him back on his feet, not step on it or act as you didn't see it.

5 - Is that true that french have stinking fridges and rotted teeth?

It was maybe the case after Wolrd War II, so so far we have a social wellfare for everybody, which allowes richs and poors together to have a complete access to care. Livespan in France is second highest in the world after Japan. and state of the art fridges (smaller than US one, because our homes are smaller).

6- how big is France?

About the Texas size, roughly (1000 km x 800 km - sorry no antique miles here but for you : 1 miles = 1.6 km)

7 - where to find Americans in Paris?

In every american restaurants (doesn't it seems strange?), as they need to feel at home (it's really worth travelling then!)

8- how much money the french are making a month?

It's a question we don't need to ask because we don't judge people on their bank account, but more on their human relationship skills.
Further more , we used to be till 1905 a catholic country, and it screwed up our relation to money.

9- why do they have different currencies?

We used to, but in a couple of years everybody in the EU (except U.K.) will use the Euro (about 1 USD).
(We understand that US doesn't like this idea of a strong currency and a single market of 500 millions people in competition with the $-tough shit!)

10- Does Pollitically Correct applies over here?

Not really. You can cruise you job collegue (same or opposite sex), joke about blacks, Israelianes, belgians, gays, swisses, englishes, american people...
That doesn't mean we don't love or care for them.
"You can joke about everything but not with everybody" (Pierre Desproges, french humorist - died of a cancer (IRM at Christmas, R.I.P. for Easter).

11 - why does french spent so much time eating?

Eating out here or at home is a 'social' thing, not a biological need.
That's also why when eating together, we wait for the last one to get his plate..and don't rush as soon as we have ours. (otherwise why getting together for eating if you eat out of sync?)
For the same reason, you will not get the bill until you ask for it. The idea is not to rush people out to free the table and make buisiness, but to let them enjoy this moment.Never ever use fingers while eating, just fork and knife (since 1500 in Europe) as any civilized people.

12- Why french doesn't want American beef (chemical enhanced)

Because we don't want to risk our health to increase profits of Companies shareholders.
Remember : profits are short term, health effect are long term. By the time you find out your health is screwed, the managers will be retired and rich.

13 - How many baby food can can I bring to France for my 3 months trip? (based on a real fact)

Believe it or not, we are feeding are babies too.

14 - Am I allowed to bring coke cans in France? (based on a real fact)

Yes you are, but you can get that poison too here.

15 - Do our President believe in God ?
we don't give a fuck since the presidency and chruch has separated yeeears ago...It would be a major scandal if he would be swearing on the Bible...That's also why you don't find bible in hotel rooms (too much a waste of paper), it's not because we are cheap.

16 - Why service is included in French restaurants?
It's because people working needs a salary, not a coin thrown at them..In that way they also pay taxes on what they are amking, like everybody. (it's called equality).
It would also be a the latin way not to leave anything, even if teh service was the best. If you are happy, you can still leave tips.

17- Why do I get such a shitty service in French restaurants?
Question 4 maybe the asnwer.
I also did get a shitty service in the US, though they were still smiling not to please me, but to get their 15%. They got then 1 cent.
I prefer honesty.

Pierre-Yves and Olivier, and Bernard.
