Black America is America! Without us there will be no America.

Black Americans set the standard and everyone else copies.

He's right and it's true because they're greedy.

Prince was preaching facts!! Rest In Power to that brotha!!! ✊🏾✊🏾

They don't like it because they can't control the Artist.

That's so true as they don't like it when an artist is independent. I agree with Prince.

WE ARE THE CULTURE ...

These executives love to screw artists over.

When I think about what I believe happened to Prince, it brings tears to my eyes. And reinforces my belief, that our people need to walk away from this entertainment industry. We don't need Hollywood. It's nothing more than a modern day Plantation.

I think it's true.some People's hate when u r independent. because they can't get to control u. The want to put u into a box .

Absolutely right brotha Philip. The nations always bitin off our culture and play like they made things up.

Prince was saying facts! These new artists need to listen to Prince and others who promoted owning your creations.

Prince was way ahead of his time, he was clued up. RIP Genius Prince ❤🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾

And Prince Rogers Nelson played 27 instruments fluently 🎸🎷🎹🥁🎻🪕🎧. He was actually a talented musician not just a performer

Yes Hip Hop is a Black American creation, damn right.💖

I love Prince music. He was one of a kind and there will be no one like him. May he Rest in Peace in the Ancestral Realm🕊️

Michael was attempting to purchase Marvel and the Star Wars franchise. Imagine his influence if he were to succeed? That would have been his retirement fund

Black Americans have not only defined cultural in America but in the world! Music and dance across the globe owes the creative genius of the American slave and their offspring. We need to stop allowing others to continue to cash in and appropriate our legacy as if they are doing something “new”. Black people, support independent black artists of all musical styles. There are black artists with musical skills and songs on par with the great entertainers past and present. But we allow an industry that has consistently abused and taken advantage of our people to determine what music and which artists we get to hear. There is more out there! Let’s give our artists a platform! Support black artists….!

Great video coverage Phillip 💯 I hope everyone is taking notes 📝 And we need to protect and defend our culture

Protect Black Excellence 👏🏽✊🏽Phil 🔥

We have created 90% of thee world's music 🎶 with out a question of a doubt!!!

Prince played over 30 instruments the guitar is just one of his favorite we all know. And we're trend setters. A lot of artists are figuring or figured out what Prince is saying. And yes, Prince did eventually go independent with his own lable. The label he's sitting by in this interview

been saying for a while how much of a rider prince is. guy was way ahead of everyone in the music industry with how he approached making and distributing music.

We created all music genre in america in one way or the other.

I have so much respect for both Prince and MJ. I love their music…. Rest in peace to the kings….

That why they killed him

Prince and Young Dolph Lead as Powerful Independent Artists . R.I.P. to them both .

''Black america is not only A culture, it is THE culture.'' BAM !

Back in the dayz people thought prince was a punk, but that brother was straight as a arrow and had plenty of super bad women. Prince was on another level of the game when it came to being a musician and getting at the women.💪💯

Well said Phil. Rest in B1ack power PRINCE 🖤

You taught me something that I could not learn about the record business. I am grateful and thankful to Phillip Scott, "Uncle Phil," for teaching me a valuable lesson about culture.👌

Garrett Morgan, the inventor of the GAS MASK, was FBA.

You speak the truth Phil never sign with anyone of them become independent

You hit it on the nose Phil! Prince was correct! His genius will be missed, but will live on!!! MAY HE REST IN POWER 🎉

❤Prince RIP 🪦 he was self made man ✅

Game Blouses! RIP Prince! May you forever purify yourself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka!

When Kris Kross wore their clothes backward, everyone in the world jumped in on that fashion trend. International runways are filled with our fashion ideas, and we influence every facet of entertainment globally! "Envelopians" only embark upon efforts that are exclusive and destructive to those with whom they encounter to their discredit. From freedom fighting to social elevation, we are the initiators of inclusive global social change. So when I think of supremacy, it is difficult to see how "them folks" consider themselves the standard. Shalom!

The music industry kill Sam Cook Otis Redding Michael Jackson and Prince just to name a few

Yes he is@LEGEND AND JUST DOWN RIGHT A REAL ONE 💯💜🙏🏼RIPO. W. E. R. KING

And when or if you leave anything to your family make sure it states INPERPETUITY!

The only original art forms in America are Jazz and Hip-Hop (and R&B ,etc. All having roots in Gospel/Spirituals!) are OURS, African American Peoples.

Thank you, Brother Phil. I always thought we didn't have a culture (taken away through slavery), but we always did.

They kills me with that no culture mess!!! 😂

Phil, on point,Sir!! Even you saying"You know What I'm Saying ". That's part of the culture. 😊

Modern day slavery, which is why prince put the word slave on his face to call it out. His album covers at that time did not depict his face, but illustrations instead.

Cosplaying our entire body, and that’s sickening….

Phil i appreciate and approve of everything you said!

I ask the most high TO CONTINUE to BLESS this channel for all the pertinent information sent out to the PEOPLE...thank u AFRICAN DIASPORA.....1 PEOPLE....1 MIND....1 LOVE ❤️.....1 NATION......1

We needs to stop saying; "R&B and Hip-hop is for everyone" Now they're stealing our dances.

Guess what I found out about Jasmine Guy, she can't use the character Whitley Gilbert and she created it and developed it throughout the series A Different World, she doesn't own it. I was floored, because she could of made bank off of it. Listen to our brother Scott, he's telling you truth, these people have lived off our back, from slavery to this day, but they want to hide this fact, CUT THE CHECK!!!!

Prince, Sly and Jimi are all legends. Even in death, Prince made sure his music was protected and not used commercially and monetized. He was brilliant. Speaking of not monetizing, TLC is a perfect example of corruption and greed within the industry. They had a lot to say about Pebbles and Babyface and their corruption.

Perhaps, why he’s no longer here!!

Happened to so many artist. And it is for that reason that for so many years Ive been saying if black folk want to get back at America all we have to do is LEAVE. This place will crumble and it deserves it

He fought a long battle with Warner brothers over the Batman soundtrack and he was stripped of his name Prince, so he outsmarted Warner brothers by writing “the artists formerly known as PRINCE” to use his name. Prince finally won and got his name back and the rights to his music. He also used the symbol as his name and what impressed me that the newspaper where he lived was selling for $3.00 a copy and included in the paper was a free cd of his music. A lot of artist were only getting a certain amount for each cd that was sold. Every artists should own the rights to their music because the record labels will pay you a small amount for an artists masters and make more residual income in the future. Prince was that dude. Back when purple rain came out,Prince and Micheal Jackson were the two biggest black music stars in the industry.

MUCH RESPECT TO YOU MR PHILLIP SCOTT FOR THIS CONTENT, PRINCE, THANK YOU AS WELL, MAY YOU REST IN PIECE!!!

Same ole script,parasites being parasitic..

Look at what happened to Jimmi Hendrix too. He fired his manager and before the contract terminated the manager had Hendrix killed. The press said it was an overdose and upon autopsy more than a liter of wine was found in his lungs. That information wasn't told until Hendrix had been dead 2 decades or more. Artist should never sign a contract with those who'll gain more from their deaths than their lives.

Prince is very spot on what he's said kept it 💯💯💯💯rip to him totally missed u 😭😭😭😭

That's why rich Blacks aren't allowed to own a $10 million franchise, it's too much power for 1 Black.

Ownership is the name of the game.

he was murdered another one gone mysteriously

True indeed brother Phil we as black people are the innovators of American music and culture scene as awhole. We are the flavor of America. Take out the black culture and inventions and America would be boring as hell. Like canada or Europe 😅

“ You know legend die young rest in peace Prince and Pimp C” -Nipsey Hussle

Look at what happened to Sisco from dru-hill. Because he said the words “living la vida loca”. Even though he was really great friends with the people who wrote that song. They took half his publishing and demanded that they be considered co-writers of the entire song. If you look at the credits of the song. Their names are on it. The people who are not black do not want black people profiting on their own music and creations.

LONG Live the memory & legacy of Mr. Prince Rogers Nelson......🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️

You are right about the music. I was out one day. I heard this loud rap music coming from this car. Guess who was in the car? A middle-aged wte man! Also, some wte people love R and B, the blues, and jazz even more than us. Also, before integration there was Styx Records and Motown.

It's obvious ......these young rappers who were independent are the rappers that's been "deleted" in the past 5 ....10 years.....

Speaking Fact 💯💯💯

Great Message Sir!👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Black Artist been mysteriously deleted when they own their royalties, since Sam Cook ?🤔

The music industry is a microcosm of Capitola in America. The least talented, laziest people sit at the top and profit the most while offering the ones who have the talent, innovation and work ethic crumbs.

Just as Africa can feed themselves without foreign Aid, entitlement need little work 🤲🏽🧎🏾‍♀️

You have to be independent from the beginning.

An Asian man told me that Bruno Mars can play Prince in a documentary movie on his life because Prince wasn’t Black. This is why BP need to gate-keep their culture.

What ever happened to Dej loaf, she was independent.

Greedy wow.

I understand completely what you are saying and agree with it, although it's hard to avoid these people you talk of. I make and own my own music to enjoy the artistic freedom to make what I want, but just putting a music video up on youtube is already contributing to their machine. Great stuff as always. Thanks for the updates. Peace and love

Hold up.. truth spoken, now all the new platforms are being bout out by the same people whom we are trying to stay away from. Crazy but truth.

Speaking out on this is why he is no longer living.

YES PHIL!!! You hit the nail on the HEAD. 100%%%%%

That’s why Prince put the word “Slave” on his face back in the day. People thought he was crazy. It was more like…tell me you’re not a slave to the music industry without telling me you’re a slave to the music industry. 😑

The Library of Congress automatically returns copyright ownership to the songwriter after 35 years per the 1976 Copyright Act. Michael began writing and publishing when he left Motown 1975. He was taken in 2009. One year shy of 35 years. Prince began writing and publishing in 1978. He was taken in 2016. He made it to 38 years. George Michael began writing and publishing in 1983. Taken 2016. 33 years. 2016 was a year of losing many music artists. What happened exactly 35 years previously? The birth of MTV and many modern songwriters.

That is true Babylon and Sodom and Gomorrah wrapped up in one

The issues started when MJ was not selling the Beatles catalogue back to the record industry. The record industry was thinking that MJ can own the Beatles catalogue for awhile and sell it back to the record industry for a profit. When MJ said No then the issues came. He owned 70% of Sony and a lot of music catalogues. He knew the " Business of Music " in which the record industry didn't appreciate. Sony got back the Beatles catalogue from MJ's estate on the claims of getting MJ's estate back red.

Color of law needs to be addressed

He always tried to tell other black artist about what was going on.

Amerikkka couldn’t win in Olympics without BP. That’s why European countries have black athletes.

This is happening to me now. A play I wrote AND doing well internationally - my royalties, after all these years, is hardly enough to buy a loaf of bread.

And who said we have no culture?? SMH boi boi boi

I LOVE YOUR WISDOM

Thank you , brother❤

Another thing I want to point is that alot of modern artist today are dodging record labels so much to the point where they had to create a AI rappers

You are absolutely right. Thank you for speaking truth.

One of the best examples of this TLC.

I Love and am so Proud of you. Young man ,I tell everyone about you , they don’t all listen, but it’s not because I don’t try because you are spreading the truth. Keep doing what you doing son very very proud of you.

Yeah, Burna Boy wear clothes of your culture.

Thank you Uncle Phil for doing a segment on music I really enjoy it keep it coming a lot of artists can learn from this💯

These mainstream artist signed to these labels helped ruin the music industry.

Jazz, another black American created music. Don't forget.

Prince was trying to tell people this for years but nobody listened. They acted as if he walked into a black Christian church and told them that they weren't gentiles and that Jesus was black.
