A lawyer for Carlin Q. Williams, who is from Kansas City, lodged an objection to a court filing by Prince’s sister Tyka Nelson who said the singer had no children. Williams is serving a sentence for gun posses- sion in a stolen car and is not due to leave the high-security federal prison in Florence, Colorado until late 2020. His mother, Marsha Henson, submitted a sworn statement saying that she met the singer-whose full name is Prince Rogers Nelson-at a Kansas City hotel in July 1976. The two drank and then he took her to his room at the now defunct Midwest Hotel where they had unprotected sex, she said. The lawyer requested a DNA test to determine whether Prince was the father of Williams. The petition claims that Williams “believes he is or may be the sole surviving legal heir” of the music legend, who died suddenly at age 57 on April 21 without leaving any known will. A 2014 court document on Williams’ sentencing said that he had a troubled childhood and wrote: “His father had no pres- ence at all in his life.” The sentencing memorandum said that Williams had seven half-siblings and that he dropped out of This undated booking photo released by Missouri Prince’s sister Tyka Nelson, center, leaves the Carver County Justice Center in Chaska with her husband Maurice school in 10th grade before being convicted on drug offenses.

  • The Burton Wire Jazz Musician Najee Talks New Music & the Other Side
    Link: http://theburtonwire.com/2014/01/05/education/jazz-musician-najee-talks-new-music-the-other- side-of-prince/ The Burton Wire Jazz Musician Najee Talks New Music & The Other Side of Prince January 5, 2014 by TheBurtonWire Jazz saxophonist Najee talks about his new album ‘The Morning After – A Musical Love Journey.’ Photo Credit (Robert Ector) Best-selling jazz musician Najee released his 13th studio album, The Morning After – A Musical Love Journey, this past October. His romantic, 11-song collection is a project that gives the Jamaica, Queens-raised saxophonist, flautist and keyboardist a few moments to reflect on his artistic and entrepreneurial evolution. Like every Najee release since his million-selling 1986 Capitol Records debut, Najee’s Theme, the Grammy-nominated performer’s sound merges smooth jazz with grooving R&B instrumentals. Each album also features Najee experimenting with musical styles he was exposed to from touring the world. Najee says via phone interview, “Jazz is music. It’s the ability to combine different elements with the spirit of improvisation and creativity. It’s allowing the music to evolve and naturally take you. You have to have knowledge of what you’re doing and a great sense of intuition,” he says. The charismatic, 56-year-old instrumentalist, born Jerome Najee Rasheed, gets a kick out of randomly logging his album and song titles in his iPhone or iPad. His creative process, he says, is quite simple. The Morning After, he adds, is inspired by his travels. “I wanted the album to reflect my experience. At some point when songs come along, I’ll just choose a title.

  • An Analysis of the Influence of Prince on Music Marketing OUTSTANDING PAPER – Arts, Music & Entertainment
    A Royal Revolution: An analysis of the influence of Prince on music marketing OUTSTANDING PAPER – Arts, Music & Entertainment Deirdre T. Guion Peoples, [email protected] Introduction “Albums — remember those? Albums still matter. Albums, like books and black lives, still matter." These are the opening words for the presentation of album of the year at the 57th annual Grammy Awards for what we now know was one of the last television appearances of Prince (Gajewski and Lee 2015). Embodied in that one line is the culmination of a careers’-long battle for acknowledgement, acceptance, and control by an entertainer who refused to play by the rules of the recording industry. Prince figured out early in his career that the link between a musician and their audience was marketing. Marketing that typically was developed and controlled by the record label and not the musician. This study uses the culture production system (CPS) to explore how the musical artist Prince launched a revolution against the marketing practices of the music industry while capitalizing on some of those same practices to craft his image and propel his career. Along the way Prince paved a path for future artists to better maintain control of their artistic output. In exchange for fronting all of the production, distribution and marketing expenses of a musician’s recordings, the record labels also retained ownership of those recordings in accordance with the “work for hire” provision of the Copyright Act of 1976. This long-standing industry practice to include ownership of songs as a part of a recording contract has been a point of contention for several musicians (Sisario 2016).
