Prince slammed music industry for 'trying to ram Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran down our throats' in handwritten notes before his death
In handwritten letters written before his death, legendary musician Prince had leveled accusations against the US music industry and radio stations for "trying to ram Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran down our throats".
These handwritten notes were found in Prince's home in Minnesota along with lyrics and photographs after his death in 2016. So far, not much else about the notes have been revealed and it is also unclear if the notes contain any more allegations.
According to a report in Daily Mail, Prince made comments regarding the time that Sheeran and Perry got on the radio and said, "We don't like it no matter how many times they play it."
The massive archive is being researched on by Prince's estate in an effort to generate revenue. Dan Piepenbring had been collaborating with the musician about writing his memoir and the two had worked together for three months before Prince's death in April 2016.
Prince's estate has been granted a temporary permit to function as a museum and operators Paisley Park Facilities LLC will conduct limited tours where an early-purchase general admission ticket to Paisley Park will cost $38.50 and a VIP tour ticket will be $100.
Visitors to the museum will be able to see Prince's flamboyant concert costumes, his instruments which were part of his prized possessions and finally Prince's motorcycle collection as well.
Minneapolis city council also granted planning permission to the late singer's estate in November 2016.
The musician is well-known for mixing up jazz, funk, R&B, disco and rock through more than 30 albums. In his lifetime, Prince had sold more than 36 million copies in the United States alone since 1978.
Some of his hits include 'Purple Rain', '1999', 'When Doves Cry' and 'Little Red Corvette'.
Prince died because of an accidental overdose of painkiller fentanyl which was self-administered, according to medical officials in June 2016.
