Prince Invited me to like an album release or some party. It was years ago... He invited me , jay-z and others, we all went together as a group.
He was calling us over 1 by 1, trying to be A figure for us or something. He showed me A lot of love. He said to me 'Kim, you're the modern day Cleopatra, You need to use that power while you have it. He was like ' I look at you & you're Cleopatra to me... I was like 'wow'
I never thought of it that way you know? After A while I was starting to look at all the little girls dressed up like me, the pink wigs and all. It wasn't just the LOOK, They were trying to consume/adapt my personality, It was so aery.. It was scary, but at the same time it was a great thing, because he let me see I had this power. Until then I'm just thing young girl in the industry having fun, Shaking my booty in my see-through thong.
A good mess, She was speaking in past tense, but didn't convey it accordingly Her Hard Core era she literally wore close to nothing, with see through sheer designer clothing, i got my LIFE with apparent wardrobe malfunctions
Last time I checked, she was one of, If not the only female emcee's who still has a cult following & undeniable impact/Influence till this day. Nobody's 'Power' Lasts forever.
