Prince/WMG

The song "1999" was a warning about the Y2K problem.
"2000: 00, party over, oops, out of time" Prince used enough electronic instruments that he had a special insight into this problem.

Prince is an African-American version of The Vampire Lestat.
Think about it. Dude is 53, and still looks like he is in his early 20s. He is constantly wooing women with those eyes. He maybe possibly Bi-sexual. He is introspective. He makes great Rock and Roll songs. He is also highly religious. Plus his symbol is one of the symbols in Vampire The Masquerade...

Prince had Asperger's Syndrome
