Wait..What? Prince’s Heirs Reportedly Doing Business Venture He’d Probably Hate

Posted On : May 1, 2017

ILOSM fam’ we have some pretty surprising info to share with y’all about Prince’s family. Word on the Old School curb is that his heirs, which presumably are his siblings, are stepping into an arena that the ever-so-reclusive Prince more than likely would have gave a resounding ‘hell to the naw’ to.

It’s just been reported that they are apparently entering into the reality TV show business…and not in a behind the scenes sort of way…but in front of the camera sort of way. It’s also being said that their reality TV venture is the reason why that new Prince album millions of fans reportedly preordered, was axed at the last minute just before it’s release on April 21, 2017- the one year anniversary of Prince’s passing. Check out the details below:

Via TMZ: Prince’s estate wants to get into the reality show biz, and that’s why it went to war to shut down the release of a new album on the anniversary of his death. Sources close to Prince’s heirs tell us the reality show, featuring family members, is in the works right now, and will focus on how their lives have changed since he died.

We’re told the family’s fighting George Ian Boxill, the producer of the “Deliverance” EP, to keep the music under wraps … so they can debut it on the show. So, the good news is … there’s still hope the music will see the light of day. The question is when? We’re told the reality show is still in early development. They have a production company on board, but no deal to air yet. Meanwhile, the court has ordered Boxill to turn over the music to the estate, but he’s still fighting that.

A new Prince family reality show? Now that should be interesting! Even though again, Prince probably wouldn’t wanna see any of his fam’ telling their business for entertainment purposes…just didn’t seem like his thing. We’ll keep you posted on this.
