Never forget that after Dave Chappelle did his famous Prince sketch, PRINCE PUT HIM ON HIS ACTUAL SINGLE COVER. pic.twitter.com/yxbevRpLrm

Named after the Prince Roger Trio, a jazz band his father performed with, Prince was signed to WB Records as a teenager. #RIPurple

What could have been.

Madonna's manager Guy Oseary recalls:

I called him a few years back with the idea of @Madonna and Prince going on tour together. I pitched it to Madonna and within a second she said "I like it, we can call it the Royalty Tour... The Queen and The Prince".... I love the way she thinks... When I told Prince the idea he said: "the world isn't ready for this, it's too big".. I always felt like one day I would pull it off..

Michael Jackson didn't like Prince.

Mark Ames swipes at his former colleague Matt Taibbi:

And Nancy Nall gnashes her teeth (again) at Mitch Albom for his column on Prince.
