24 years ago today, Prince attended the 14th annual Soul Train Music Awards, where he was named "Artist of the Decade." He was presented his award by none other than the legendary Chuck D of Public Enemy fame.
During Prince’s acceptance speech, he took the opportunity to share his reflections about the talent of his fellow black artists, and unfair contracts, asking the audience to “imagine what we’ll all be like in our own game.”
Prince was always a pioneer in artistic freedom for musicians, and is respected by so many because he stood up boldly, and unapologetically, to fight the power.
On this day in 2004, Prince and his former Revolution bandmate Wendy Melvoin appeared on the Tavis Smiley Show to debut "Reflection," the final track on Prince's 2004 album Musicology.
“It was just him and me, and he was gorgeous. He was the guy I knew when I first met him.” - Wendy Melvoin
The video of this performance was also made available for download through the NPG Music Club.
"Creating new music is like meeting a new friend." - Prince
On this day in 1990, Prince was honored with the Special Award of Achievement at the 17th annual American Music Awards.
