Prince Wanted to Mentor Chris Brown
From a previously unreleased interview.
With Prince’s passing, there’s a lot of previously private news going public. Case in point: back in 2014, Rolling Stone were planning to drop an extensive interview with Prince, even sending a journalist all the way out to Paisley Park to interview the Purple One. Today, Rolling Stone have liberated the interview in its entirety. Most notably, the interview revealed that Prince was interested in guiding Chris Brown:
“He is just one of many who have gone through that door — Amy Winehouse and folks. We’re all connected, right, we’re all brothers and sisters, and the minute we lock that in, we wouldn’t let anybody in our family fall. That’s why I called Chris Brown. All of us need to be able to reach out and just fix stuff. There’s nothing that’s unforgivable.
