There was a thread on DL immediately after he died that claimed he died of AIDS

No he died of an overdose. He was an opioid addict

Thank you, OP...great album!! I saw the Lovesexy tour at the Nassau Coliseum in Long Island when I was 13 years old. It was one of the best concerts I have ever been to...I was an already dedicated Prince fan due my obsession with Purple Rain. I really miss those days...

Sexy Motherfucker was his best song by far

He was bi for a long time and sang about sex all the time. He made great pop music until he went all boring and “straight”

Of course it wasn’t too hard to deny his sexuality and get all preachy because a raging drug addiction makes you not want sex at all.

Any songwriters who suppress who they really are however cant write good songs. That’s why his music turned to shit. But alphabet contained great pop music because it was a horny short guy who loved sex and that oozed out of that album.

I’d love a deluxe version of this album with the extended versions of Alphabet Street and live versions of the songs from the Lovesexy tour. I’ll buy whatever they want to sell.

R14 I saw that tour in Boston. That was the year that someone was fatally hit by a car outside of Tower Records while waiting to buy Prince tickets; I waited in the line the next night.

And yet there's zero evidence, zero accounts of encounters with men. He's dead. There's no threat of a libel lawsuit and still no male lovers coming forward.

I’m a little skeptical that he had to resort to street Fentanyl. He could have had any opiate under the sun. He did not need fake opiates. But really, I don’t really think I’ll ever know anything about him.

R30) Of course, Prince died of AIDS, and he was preparing for his death.

One big hint of that was when he made gifts for his fans that were passed out after his death.

Why did his fans pass out after his death?

Right because he was "gay" and all gays have AIDS. And the 2 yr police investigation into his overdose from counterfeit pills was just the police covering for him because the Minnesota police have a vested interest in concealing his "gay" AIDS" death. That all makes perfect sense.

I have a vivid memory of being a kid at a record store, flipping thru the posters and being stopped cold by one of Prince (Purple Rain era) laying on a bed, on his stomach, ass arched, naked with the sheet about half way down this ass. It stirred serious shit in me and though that didn’t spawn a lifelong Prince sexual obsession, it definitely did for other men’s asses. I tried in vain to find the image to attach but alas, came up empty. But it was formative.

Stop inserting beliefs that were not stated.

[quote] And the 2 yr police investigation into his overdose from counterfeit pills was just the police covering for him because the Minnesota police have a vested interest in concealing his "gay" AIDS" death. That all makes perfect sense.

That investigation -- from your link -- determined that Prince died from taking a counterfeit Vicodin pill that contained Fentanyl, a dangerously powerful opioid.

WE ALL KNOW THAT HE DIED FROM AN OVERDOSE. The 2016 cause of death was not a complete autopsy, but it was released that Prince died from an overdose.

Autopsy Data classified as public was what you posted in your link. According to Minnesota law, “The public is not entitled to the private data released to Prince’s next-of-kin,” said the report.

By its sparse details, anyone can tell that is not a complete autopsy report. I guess that is everyone BUT you!

Anyway. . .

People are questioning whether there was an underlying medical condition (AIDS) that contributed to his drug taking or compromised his health.

Yes, we all know AIDS did not kill Prince.

He made some interesting music early on when he still had Wendy and Lisa to carry him, but the "ultimate sex symbol" he tried to make of himself was absurd. I laughed out loud when he rose from the bathtub in "When Doves Cry".

Wendy and Lisa were in the band and “carrying him” when he recorded WDC.

R38, the poster was an insert promo for 1999 record. They reissued it as a full sized poster during the PR era.

I think this is a good theory, and why he turned to religion. There was talk that Prince attributed God for curing him of getting AIDS, and that's why he turned to religion. When he became a Witness, he couldn't turn to medicine anymore to "cure" his illness. Eventually, the pain from his bad hip and his deteriorating health led him to turn to prescription drugs that were issued out in other people names.
