    “Born 2 Die” is the second single made available from Prince’s upcoming unreleased studio album Welcome 2 America and is available now. The song was recorded during a flurry of studio activity in the spring of 2010, when President Obama was just a year into his first term and Prince was reflecting deeply on the issues affecting the Black community and the role he hoped to play. As happened countless times throughout his career, Prince ended up shelving the song and the rest of Welcome 2 America in his legendary vault, and the full album will be released from the vault for the first time on July 30. The slow-burning song was first recorded by Prince, the bassist Tal Wilkenfeld, and the drummer Chris Coleman, and then accentuated by the vocal harmonies of Shelby J., Liv Warfield, and Elisa Fiorillo, and topped off by a melody sung by Prince himself. He then tapped his longtime music director Morris Hayes to add final production to the track-and shared some of the inspiration behind its sound. "We got to 'Born 2 Die,' and Prince said, 'I'll tell you how that came about,' Morris remembers. "He had been watching videos of his friend Dr. Cornel West on CZcams, and during one speech Dr. West said, 'I love my brother Prince, but he’s no Curtis Mayfield.' So Prince said, "Oh really? We will see."

      His own, or another, Soul can will itself to be reborn with the same talent ♾️👁️🎆✨💜♥️ We are infinite love energy ♥️♾️ There have been many gifted musicians/singers over the centuries. Maybe Prince's Soul used to be one of them from 100's or even 1000's of years ago (we can have millions of lives over aeons of time if we so wish/will it to be so. See Alba Weinman on YT) and once he'd passed over way back then, he could've willed himself to become embodied back on Earth by 1958 because he could see then from the Heavenly realms that the musical toys were starting to be so much more varied, electronic and fun 😊👌🏽🎸🎹🎼🎵🎶 What lies up ahead for this beautiful Soul...for all of us? 🤗👁️☮️♥️💜♒💫♾️

      All these Artist faked their death its part of their Legend Contract. They fake their death retire to the living dead community on an island somewhere off the chart.
      Why? Its an Agreement with the industry to Get Highest Promotion and Success and most wealth but at a price they have to hand power over their whole career and catalog and merchandising the Artist is then rewarded with Legendary Status in the World.
      The plan just under Legend is ICON status where the Artist remains living but semi retired and does not produce new music and makes appearance now and then.
      Prince knew his time was coming Listen to Mr. Nelson he knew it how did he record Sometimes it snows in April on the same date he died back in 85 because he knew when his time was up when he signed and upgraded his plan right after 1999 and Exploded with Purple Rains Massive Success.
      All the Artist who are gone went the same way because its all staged. From Jimi to Janis to Morrison to Elvis to Cobain to Tupac to Biggie to Winehouse to Whitney to M-J to George Micheal they all signed the Legend contract. They all handed their Careers over to the industry to be Legends. Its better to Burn out then Fade away- Kurt Cobain. They All Live.

      Nothing, can take their place,
      Deep, inside of me,
      When I felt so lost, they spoke to me,
      Growing up, was sometimes rough,
      I do remember, but the gifts you left behind, sing like a symphony,
      I'll always treasure,

      Face mask wearing is part of a satanic ritual that disrespects God’s creation. It’s ungodly to cover your face. Masks wearing also supports child abuse. It’s a shame to think that he would take part in that.

    I can respect an artist who collects his material in a way that he can have it and posess it entirely: so that when he dies, that same material can be made available for other people to love and posess it in exactly the same way.

    On what would have been Curtis Mayfield's 80th birthday, the estate releases Prince's most overt homage to the late soul musician's aesthetic. This is Prince's version of a tunes by Curtis like "Kung Fu" and "Billy Jack". Although Prince talking about street life on this song is generic, the groove and singing is unmistakable. I like Prince's shout out to Oakland and "Frisco Bay"-land of the pimpin' hustle

    On oct 21 2021 after 10pm, heard: 'Born 2 die', by Prince: exquisite , eclectic, real and prophetic in a way for me.
    I was in a trance with the 70s like Mr. Curtis Mayfield vibe( I am repeating a comment made early by a fan who felt the same about this outstanding song)simply lovely beyond imagination, but then all his music was, 'Genius', I ran out of positive adjectives ,words to describe this gifted man.
    Everyday I am learning more and more about Mr. Nelson. And, it's an amazing journey for me indeed.
