EarthAndMusic

Today, I pay tribute to Prince Rogers Nelson—His Royal Badness—a genius who profoundly influenced my life. On Earth Day, I reflect on how his music, style, and boldness shaped not just my teenage years, but also my views on self-expression and identity. In the 80s, you were either a Michael Jackson fan or a Prince fan. For me, Prince was more than just a musician; he was an icon who defied norms, explored sexuality, and offered a deep connection to the Earth through his music. Songs like Sign of the Times captured the struggles of life, while his fearless exploration of love and identity broke boundaries. Prince’s legacy lives on, reminding us all that it’s okay to be different and embrace our uniqueness.
