Welcome to a special edition of Retro Rewind, the TGJ original feature carved out to take you on a journey back into TV and Film’s past.
Today, to celebrate the life of the late African-American entertainer Prince, we make our way back to December 10th 1999, the day on which the performer bared all on life, love, music and religion in an interview with CNN‘s Larry King.
Much to the delight of his supporters, the conversation saw them mine the guarded entertainer’s changing mind as he promoted the LP ‘Rave UN2 The Joy Fantastic’, offering them what stands as an undeniably unforgettable interview.
Watch below…

RIP legend. Been listening to his music non-stop.
Are y’all ready for the BEYONCE movie tonight? She better kill me with this album; I need some new RnB gems.
She´s not on that level musically. Not to mention she doesn´t make her music like he did.
You’re so old & bitter, sis. You’ve been on this site more in the past few days, than you have been in the past year and a half. He & the rest of the hive are entitled to be excited about Beyoncé’s film, if they so choose to be, not to mention he didn’t even compare her to Prince, so you & your straw man arguments & fake, fickle, fallacies can have a seat.

And I thank you ⛱
Johnvidal stfu f**! God you’re a nuisance.
Reading comprehension! This wasn’t a Princr and Beyonce comparison
John nobody was in my opinion on Prince level. Beyoncé had nothing to do with this
John never misses an opportunity to shade Beyonce with his nice nasty ass. He’s so miserable and used to go IN on Bey.
