there's something very strange to me about the entitlement we feel to these intensely private people's lives after they die. like... idk, this just strikes me as something prince wouldn't have wanted. get money tho, i guess.

"DuVernay also said that Prince reached out to her before his death hoping to collaborate on a project"

[divafit]

"a project" doesn't directly translate to a documentary and it damn sure doesn't translate to one made for fucking netflix, lmao. considering he died with his music still not being available via streaming services, i highly doubt the project he had in mind involved putting his legacy in the hands of a top 5 media conglomerate

[fimh]

he treated women so awfully, not to mention the homophobia, soooooooooo i think ill pass on this and just continue with cognitive dissonance to enjoy his music

[palosantos]

It always pains me to see people speaking out about powerful issues like #MeToo going out there and supporting abusive trash that the movement would call out for being despicable.

[fimh]

youre not wrong

[josiefier]

Exactly.

Settling into this post....

It could be an interesting documentary if it were to be objective and brought up his shit, but then "in collaboration with Prince's estate." Eh.

[urfad]

Yeah...who runs the estate?
