Yes, but he stopped using the name 'Prince' because of the legal battle that was fought between him and his record label over the creative control of 'his' music.

You should, because it suggests your being pretty naive about the music business - which is kind of at odds with the aim of your blog.

Your being a fan of Prince or not has nothing to do with his critical or commercial success. As a newcomer and, quite frankly, nobody in the music industry (which isn't a shame btw - I still fall in the same category), it suits you well to respect that.

aside from my articles [im a n00b and i know theres alot of work to be done] is there any major problems with the blog?
The blog is fine, although a little light on content - both in quantity and quality.

Your goal is commendable, but I think you need to gain a fair bit of experience (direct or indirect) before you are really qualified to give advice to other musicians about furthering their career.

Just keep that in mind for now and keep at it!

cheers,
Jim.
