A little about me and this channel:
My name is James Aubrey IV and I just recently graduated college from Iowa State University. After college I decided to take a leap of faith. So I moved to San Diego California to pursue my passion for videography/ KZfaq. Overall I'm a pretty chill person, outside of KZfaq I like to longboard, dance, play video games, lift weights and hangout with my friends. I know that success on KZfaq won't happen overnight but I'm willing to stay patient and put in the work to try to prefect my craft daily. This KZfaq channel will be centered around my life after college. You will be able to see all of the ups and downs on my journey to success. So if you like the content make sure you subscribe so you can be apart of the Rome Life Family. (Let's build our own personal Rome's together.)
What is the Rome Life ? And What does it mean to be apart of it?
Rome Life is something I started during my Sophomore year of high school (one of the worst times in my life) it started off as me documenting my journey to recovery from my shoulder surgery but eventually it turned into a platform that I could use to encourage myself as well as others to chase our dreams.
Rome Life isn't just a saying it's a way of life and for the people who want to be apart of it have to realize that. Rome wasn't built in a day it took a lot of handwork time and most importantly patience. So you can't expect your dreams to be any different

Are you guys over 50? Cause I am and was there in the moment. I have never ever heard anyone downgrade prince impossible. Mj is my favourite but prince is right there also and I love both.

@Anjalena 3 жыл бұрын

@@jamesway I'm 49. I was there in the 80s when he had his moment for a few years. But then he wasn't really in the mainstream eye nearly as much. I'm not saying he wasn't mentioned or that they didn't have occasional songs of his on the radio. I think Prince became more a cult fan thing for those of us who were true fans. But, pedophilia claims aside, MJ stayed in the mainstream, was dubbed The King of Pop, and might as well have been American royalty by the reaction of the rest of the world. I prefer O+> to MJ personally. He had incredible levels of talent. Singing, playing most of the instruments😁, writing his own music which spanned numerous genres, discovering a lot of artists who became famous, writing and lending his music to other artists, etc. And my guess is that the difference in the two, popularity-wise, is that Prince didn't dress like a dude and he was very sexual. Both of those things made this puritan-like country very nervous. Strange as Michael was, the public took to him. Possible I'm not seeing this totally objectively. No worries though I was just mentioning something that came to my mind as I wrote that last message. So I fleshed out the thought. It really doesn't matter to me and it's not something I sit around thinking about. I don't give a shit about the idea of celebrity. I have enjoyed my years as a Prince fan and that's really all that matters, right? And if Michael was better than Prince for you, that's all that matters. For the record, though, I loved Michael, too. I loved him years before I gave two shits about Prince. I remember crying when he set his head on fire. I played the Thriller album ad finitum until my mom's alcoholic boyfriend shattered it cuz I misbehaved or something. Michael was great. I guess Prince was the one I connected with more deeply. I dunno.

Prince was the best musician and performer that the world has ever seen. Prince has been credited for playing 27 different instruments on his recordings but could play pretty much anything aside from horn instruments. He has been acknowledged by many of the great guitar players as being the best or "one of" the greatest players despite being snubbed by Rolling Stone Magazine when they excluded him on their top 100 list, Prince shoved that back in their face with his guitar solo performance at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" with Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne and Steve Winwood with Rolling Stone in the audience for the live show.

It helps to remember that this, the "video" is just a scene from the movie, Purple Rain. So, the weird fat dude at the bar, the quiet intro, the awkward audience, and the credit given to Wendy and Lisa (Prince wrote the song himself) is all in service to a dramatic moment from a movie. At the time, everybody owned the whole album and knew the whole movie by heart, so it didn't play so weirdly. There were several other hits from the movie/album that when this single came out like fourth, it worked great. And since the other songs on the album were funky, soulful, dancey, and electronic, he went for full-on Rock'n'Roll god in this one with his stunning guitar chops on full display. He wrote, played, sang, and produced almost every instrument on every record he made, but this was recorded as a band. And he did both the vocal and the guitar parts live for this film scene. It's pretty legendary, and so was he.

Prince is easily one of the most gifted musician and performer ,extraordinare of all time. The ability to play over 20+ instruments fluently, writing hit after hit for not only for himself but for some of the biggest names during his era. I could go on and on with the superlatives. If he was deemed underrated it was by those who could not match this Man’s talent. For those who recognized his talent , they understood he was a once in a lifetime phenom who could not be ignored but revered for the power of his passion to create timeless great music.

Prince is one of the most underrated musicians in history. He played all 18 instruments on his debut album. ON HIS DEBUT ALBUM! I watched him in concert. He could play anything on every instrument. He had a half circle of dusins pedals around him, making any noice he wanted. And yes, he could play...

And THIS is what we got to listen to when I was a kid in the 80's! This was my favorite Prince song it's just so beautiful to listen. His lyrics were always clever not predictable rhymes. And his talent with the guitar was unreal. Prince was a private man and even at his peak wasn't gossip fodder like his contemporaries at the time, Michael, Madonna and others. He was small in stature but a giant on the stage, quiet in life but when he took the stage he overpowered everyone! I miss him a lot. Thank goodness he left a legacy of his musical genius behind for us who grew up with him to continue to enjoy and for future generations to discover and be amazed!

Basically everything he did from the late seventies up up to his sad passing a few years back was tops... not only his own stuff, but he made songs for a whole host of other artists as well.

Simply put, Prince was a genius. He played over 27 instruments and it was reported at the time of his death that he has a 2,000 unreleased song in a vault on his estate. Prince has even composed symphonies. So I was saying that he was a "genius" loosely like often do these days. Edit: And he could also do flawless falsettos and transition to low bass tones in a single vocal run. Dude was truly amazing.
