BET AWARDS REWIND: PRINCE TRIBUTE WORTH ANOTHER LOOK..AND MORE PROPS! (VIDEO)




We watched the Prince Tribute in its entirety and are uber impressed with the performances. Jonelle Monae turnt up Prince's "Let's Go Crazy", the amazing Esperanza Spalding (pic'd above) sang a sultry "If I Was Your Girlfriend" with guitar-like instrument in tow, Alicia Keys climbed and gyrated her pregnant self all over her piano during "Adore", and Patty closed it out by kicking her shoes off to "Purple Rain". Prince even teared up. And, gave only a slight side-eye. Haaha! You must watch to see for whom. Nevertheless, it's Aweeesommeee!  Sidebar: This tribute has NOTHING to do with that mess of a performance-- that butchering of "Purple Reign"-- by Trey Songz. That ish made us cringe, and even hide little. [BET]

PRINCE FANS STAND UP! NEW ALBUM DUE OUT JULY 10TH + PATTY LABELLE'S BET AWARDS TRIBUTE (VIDEO)

Yeah, it's being released in Europe (July 10th) but so what! It's music and these days you can get it by turning your shower dial a certain way. Lol! We admit, it's been some time since we heard a newly released Prince song we could genuinely rock (or grind) to, but we're excited nonetheless. Loovvve us some Prince!  [The Life Files]

For the hell of it, check out the vid clip below of our beloved Patty LaBelle's performance during BET's Lifetime Achievement Award tribute-- don't miss Prince's facial expressions. Priceless.
