Are we not watching SNL today? It's the Dead Prince edition.
>>68645817
got all i need, thanks
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SFNW5F8K9Y
>>68645817
Is it just going to be replays all episode?
>nothing but prince performances
and for the first time in a decade SNL is actually watchable
>hour and a half show
>Prince only performed 3 times
Ready for a whole lot of commercials?
>>68645817
I'm watching, but probably not too into the banz.
>>68645939
Fallon did an intro, so there's some new content. I can't promise that any of it will be funny, though.
>>68645957
wait....this is a good point
what the fuck are they going to fill the time with
>>68645977
I'm hoping for Fred Armisen impressions
Let's be honest. If this was 1980 whatever and we first saw Prince on SNL, the shitposting would be out of control. Look at this nigger wearing women clothing.
>>68645946
>>68645957
>>68645977
skits, performances, and cast members talking about his impact
possibly some guest stars
>Ive heard like 3 prince songs
>Alright
>But cause he released so much shit that fanboys liked and was a weird androgynous weirdo people are acting like the messiash just died
Be real noone listened to anything but purple rain and cream
>>68646020
him and bowie are both badasses. do not give a FUCK kek
Maybe Charlie Murphy tells us another Prince story
>>68646020
1.) it was a different time
2.) Price is actually talented as opposed to the "edgy" shit that's trotted out today
>>68646053
yeah, calling bullshit on this. Prince is one of the bestselling artists of all time. he was a superstar in the truest sense of the word. so many hits and platinum albums
>>68646071
They're not trying to be funny
>>68646053
I give two shits about Prince, honestly. Based on what I've heard about him being so... copyrighting, I don't miss him at all.
>>68646053
I had the Batdance cassette single when I was a kid
>>68646126
honestly Prince was MJ levels of talented. I agree his copyright stance was bullshit and he was pretty fucking crazy on a variety of fronts, but from a musical standpoint he's a loss
>Jimmy Kimmel had to explain to the kids why the Batman symbol is there
I bet these damn millennials don't even know who Jerry Hall is.
>>68646126
>Hating a guy because he copyrighted all his material and material that involved him and his name
>>68646204
in fairness, she's pretty forgettable
>>68646204
>millennials watching SNL
they are too busy watching youtube videos about the Tobuscus rape fiasco
>>68646227
I'm just saying, musicians should have the right to copyright their own work. Prince really went overboard compared to other artists.
>>68646240
The what fiasco
>they're going to do a commercial break between every song
not sure why I'm surprised
>>68646122
They should. Prince didn't have a problem with that story and even collaborated with it.
>>68646270
you don't even want to know
>>68646270
some e-celeb chick accuses another e-celeb of rape after multiple years with zero evidence to back her story up (hence why she did it in a video instead of, you know, actually going to the cops)
>other e-celeb women weigh in, some saying he was creepy towards them, some saying they don't think he's a rapist at al
>more and more e-celebs jump in to comment to get dem clicks
You don't want to know or care. It's cancer. I regret going down the youtube rabbit hole a week ago.
>>68646199
>MJ levels of talented
I (kinda) second this, but he never participated for MJ's videos "Bad" and " We are the World". Both had a friendly grudge on who can make the bigger radio charts and most brazen acts. Which made both of their talents all the more wholesome.
Maya and Marty looks terrifyingly bad. Might watch.
>>68646020
>>68646126
>not being able to appreciate original artists.
>muh nigger
>muh faggot
go back to marvel vs dc threads.
So was it confirmed he had aids and went off the meds because some Jehovah's witness told him he was fine?
>>68646320
They should but they won't because again, it's SNL, they don't want to be funny.
>>68646401
not entirely but that seems like the most likely explanation. pretty weird for someone to die of the flu when they're 50 otherwise.
>>68646389
Fuck you, faggot. You know everyone here would be shitting on Prince the same way Charlie Murphy did.
>>68646422
i assume he refused antibiotics because of the Jehovah's Witness bullshit no?
>>68646438
I remember the thread for the last episode where Prince performed. Pretty much no one was shitting on him. Fuck off.
>>68646343
Youtube, as a whole, has been horrendously cancer for the whole year alltogether. From the Fine Bros. doing goofed and trying to Jew, to users getting their monitazation rights revoked and videos flagged (probably as a result of that shitfest). Among many other shits that occured. Fucking scary.
>>68646438
Charlie Murphy respected Prince. it was all in good fun between those two. Prince even referenced the skit
These performances and songs are all mediocre.
No one would care this much if he hadn't made Purple Rain.
>>68646456
That because it wasn't the 1980s and Prince wasnt some obscure act
>>68646422
There's speculation he OD'd on drugs. possibly percocet.
>>68646493
They aren't his best performances sadly. Still, I have heard that his concerts were some of the best of all time. Even modern NBA players said he still had it
>>68646438
He wasn't shitting on him retard. That's like saying he was shitting on Rick James.
>>68646537
>Even modern NBA players said he still had it
What do sports have to do with this?
>>68646537
what the fuck do NBA players know. lel
>>68646493
see
>>68645903
He was pretty damn amazing on guitar
>>68646576
>>68646577
>22:54:10
whoa
>>68646576
>>68646577
he did a few private concerts with NBA players recently. in spite of how dated Prince is they said he was great. take that however you want. i think it speaks to how timeless he was
>>68646083
Well, he was pretty edgy, too. He's largely the reason music rating system. He did songs about fucking his sister while he was underage, vibrators, mutual masturbation, and orgies and such.
>>68646635
>black people who grew up listening to their mom playing prince like prince
no shit though
>>68646681
I'm not saying prince wasn't edgy, I'm just differentiating from the focus group "edgy" acts we see today
>>68646686
I know specifically one NBA player that liked him grew up homeless. Jimmy Butler said he was great live.
>one song
>commercial
>one song
>commercial
Who could be behind this?

>>68646799
At least this next one is like 15 minutes long
Can they do this for another hour? Was he on that many times?
>>68646873
the jews will cut it up
>>68645957
He performed 4 times, and he did an afterparty for the 40th anniversary show they might show
Damn, guitarfu
>>68646923
they said they're going to show the afterparty
It's a 40 year olds visit a hungarian yacht designer forum thinking everyone cares about Prince episode
>>68646493
Purple Rain isn't even his best desu.He's best doing dirty tracks about fucking.
>>68646935
she'd be cute as hell if it wasn't for the half-shaved head
>>68646537
The only people who know less about good music than NBA players is a South Sudanese butt chugging addiction online support forum
god damn this chick on drums
Holy Fuck that was pretty awesome
>>68646965
Is that bubb rubb
>>68647095
yeah, do we know the last song he performed?
i know it was from one of his newer albums.
I think they're doing the after party next
>it's a Jimmy Fallon claims the only worthwhile human beings are celebrities episodes
so before it was just going to be reruns and then they decided to do this last minute?
SHUT UP JIMMY FALLON JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
>>68647237
pretty much
ok, this is getting annoying
It's literally Jimmy bragging about his life
>this will get to prince eventually
>>68647243
pretty cool
>>68647240
ohmygod so many ohmygod so crazy I mean wow ohmygod
>>68647210
They aren't?
>>68647287
most aren't tbqh
IMAGINE THE OSCARS GUYZ
AND THE GRAMMYS
.....
COMBINED
>>68646973
>Purple Rain isn't even his best desu.
No shit
Around the World in a Day is
Purple Rain was just a generation-defining event and arguably the greatest meeting of art, commerce, and entertainment of the last 35 years
Because of it, Prince gained a popularity among normies that he NEVER would've gained from Lovesexy or Dirty Mind
>padding the show with Jimmy Fallon
SNL can't even do a Prince tribute without ruining everything
And they say religion is dead.
>>68646935
>>68647069
He fucked both of them. He had a bunch of beautiful women around him all the time, performing with him, living with him, and he fucked them all. That was Prince's life.
Lel wtf is up with Chris rocks face.
>>68647346
I guess that means they have HIV now?
It's a
>SNL showing camera phone footage on national television
episode
What a great life you live, Jimmy.
>>68647375
Quality is amazing desu
Jimmy looks like a fucking douche in this footage
Also
>Martin Short sighting
How many of them do you think were coked up there? Jimmy Fallon definitely was.
>>68647355
An inebriated slave to the rhythm
>>68647319
Around the World in a Day is my favorite too. At that point, after his success with Purple rain, he really started doing whatever the fuck he wanted to do. Pop Life, The Ladder, Raspberry Beret, Paisley Park...that entire album is great.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5Hn2Ipss8U
>>68647407
he's obviously hammered
>it was just a spur of the moment thing you guys honest!
>prince's entire backup backup band is there
ok
Fallon displaying his Irish side
Is that his body guard? Dude is just standing there.
>>68647467
that's Jimmy's
>>68647407
it is 4 30 am at the time dumbass
why is Prince the only cool guy in that room baka
>>68647499
Prince is always the coolest guy in the room
>note the product placement of the phone front and center at the end of that
jews always win
>>68647437
>Pop Life
Jesus, this song is something else
>>68647514
>Apple uses it in their next commercial
Money never sleeps, senpai

About 55 degrees
who /last beer of the night/ here?
>>68647577
You son of a bitch
>>68647319
>>68647437
Temptation is my favorite track on that album. ITs so intense and like nothing else from the time.
>>68647538
yep. one of those rare songs that makes you happy and sad at the same time. those are always the best.
>>68647577
savage
>>68647610
me too champ
SHUT THE FUCK UP JIMMY
Damn, you can see why PTA went black
i thin maya got beyonce confused with christina aguilera
god damn old school Maya.....my dick
Nothing like blackface to spark things up.
>How much weight you, girl?
>>68647615
you're right. that song is great, epic story telling, with a message, wrapped up in a tight package. , it was pretty long for a song during the 80s.
>>68647699
interesting point....Fred wasn't black and Maya was a mulatto
>>68647699
He was Obama too
>>68647699
Maybe they'll play the Billy Crystal blackface sketch next.
>SNL thought this was funny enough to replay
god dammit cancel this fucking show
fred is underrated to be honest
i laughed at the purple pillow having purple feathers
>>68647783
literally the only decent thing he's done is portlandia
>>68647803
He was funny in Eurotrip
>>68647764
when i look at him doing that impression i realized how bad it was
>>68647824
he was in eurotrip?
>>68647783
yeah, was a decent Prince impression 2bh
also, who /portlandia/ here. for years i hated the show but went back to it recently and really liked it
>>68647690
dayum. I'd forgotten how fine she was.
Dat chest.
that rudolph
>>68647824
well fuck, now I have to download Eurotrip
You now remember Finesse mitchell and dean edwards
I wouldn't be surprised if Robert de Niro actually thought that was the real Prince, and he was on a real show.
>>68647945
He played the gay guy on the train
Is this reminding anyone else of The Eric Andre Show?
god damn I wanna fuck old school Maya Rudolph
>>68648009
oh....ok, he was good in two things
>>68647845
i like portlandia, and fred armisen in general. i like the fact that he's a musician too, so he fucks around with that. these may be only funny to musicians:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFL6_jmWsB4
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNofoBDA5Bc
i thought this was only on for an hour?
Damn, Maya's tits got bigger.
so are we done with actual prince performances?
>>68648101
Guess you were wrong.
https://youtu.be/KkOxeKA2WNE
He was originally booked for the 1995 season premiere, but flaked out during the week. Blues Traveler took his place. David Spade referenced the Purple One a couple weeks later during his "Spade In America" segment, calling out Prince. Will that make it into the show tonight?
>>68648139
They have to close with one. Meanwhile, more Maya.
>>68648139
apparently i was, it now says it ends at 1:03
>tfw you're witnessing what SNL called "comedy" during the period of your life where you never bothered to watch the show
wow. I missed nothing
You can see another view of that recorded by 80s cast member Tim Kazurinsky here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMNKnC9K8Uo#t=335
(how did he set up the drum set and his full backing trio?)
What I expected: Prince
What I got: Jimmy Fallon babbling and Fred Armisen shit
>>68648228
"spontaneous"
>>68648265
seriously. Fuck SNL. How the fuck do you fuck up a Prince tribute
>>68648228
Because it was all staged for shekels. Everything in snl is formulaic and tweaked for maximum shekels
>they're closing the show with a skit rather than an actual performance
FUCK
THIS
SHOW
>>68648290
with Fallon
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsmVgoXDq2w
>realizing Prince wrote this song too
I'm gonna have this prince show song stuck in my head
JUST
>>68648355
the guitar riff is from "Kiss"
https://youtu.be/baPsgmDexno?t=2m14s
I am beginning to think Fred Armisen died too
>>68648425
it's plausible....Fred had the same sex life as Prince.
>>68648404
I meant I'm going to have mayas bouncy titties stuck in my head
>>68648181
Evidently I was wrong, too.
>>68648345
few ever have been as qt as hoffs
>No Webm of Mayas ass or tits or mouth
ARE YOU PRINCE FAGGOTS HAPPY?
>>68648558
Them eyes. I remember how I wished she spent all day in my room trying on all my clothes.
>>68648425
Fred Armisen killed Prince to get free publicity
>>68648610
gonna download it and fap to it later fAm
>>68648629
>>68648558
>>68648345
>It was rumored by various writers that after Prince listened to the band's 1984 debut album All Over the Place, he gave the song to Bangles rhythm guitarist Susanna Hoffs, so that in return she would sleep with him.[7][8][9]
