Not a lot of people knew about me because i was i used Stevie Wonder<\/a> as an inspiration, whom i look up to a great deal just for the way that he crafted music and his connection to the spirit. And boy, back then, i used him as a role model in trying to play all the instruments and be very selfcontained and keep my so word spread quickly about what i could do.

We really appreciate you joining us this morning. I want to start with this so many people say that prince influenced them, yet we just heard prince say that you were the one that influenced him. What does that mean to you, and how are you remembering him today . Well, first of all, im very happy to be here with you. Nothings too early or too soon to celebrate the greatness of a man that did so much for the music world as well as for the consciousness of caring about people as did he. As far as saying that i influenced him, i feel honored i always wanted to play the guitar. I found the instrument about wow. I said im going to have a similar kind of sound just based on me liking, you know, the guitar and just liking what it was to be way of expressing musically.

How do you think his music was different from other musicians . I think that he was far more daring, and you know, as much as people talk about we didnt know too much about his personal life, its not important. You dont need to know everything about people. But most of all, you need to know what he wants to do and is thats the most important thing. That he wore his sincerity on his sleeve, and you could see it. Thats the most important thing. People said he was so interested in social justice. You two had many conversations about that, didnt you . We did. You know, when you think about theres some over 300 million or more guns in america, and that were not doing anything to really make a difference. We talked about that. We talked about obviously black lives matter. And the reality is its a very simple thing. The beginning of all civilization started in africa. So of course black lives matter. It was the beginning of civilization. All of you are children. Yeah. I feel our children need to stop acting up. Were glad you that came and brought a music an instrument.

Ive been having to deal with a lot of things, getting teased a lot in school. Career, i tried to compensate for that by being as flashy as i could and as noisy as i could. And you know, i just looked, again, i look forward to this time in my life when i can reflect back on it. Okay, so people think youre weird. They think youre strange. What do you want them to know . The music. Incredibly reflective. Yeah. Ahead, more memories of prince and his music from producer l. A. Reid, here in studio 57. Plus, it was William Shakespeare<\/a> who write good. Good morning. It is friday, april 22. Get ready to turn on the air conditioning. Going to be a warm one out there. Im chris wragge. Well have the forecast in a moment. The top board of Elections Official<\/a> in brooklyn will not be on the job today. The chief clerk has been the outcome of investigations problems. More than 125,000 people in brooklyn found they had been dropped from voting rolls. There were also delayed poll openings. Separate investigations have elections. A postal employee is looking for a 1 million 26yearold coreen baker says he feels police have been out to get him after he happened to give street directions to cop killer Ishmael Brinsley<\/a> back in 2014. Brinsley killed rafael ramos and wenjian liu. Baker says since then police have been harassing him, including an alleged beating over a dispute over parking. Heymakers, stomped on his head, kicked him until additional officers showed up. They beat on me, just like only thing i could feel was just being felt like i was about to take my last breath. Detectives are charged with assaulting baker. The n. Y. P. D. Would not comment on the case, only saying the two detectives have been suspended without pay. Now lets get over to john for the forecast on this friday. John . Its kind of a comfortable friday. Weve got numbers well above normal. In fact, were right around where you would expect to be in the afternoon at 8 26 in the morning. I know Joanne Josephs<\/a> is watching, because she always watches at 8 00, cbs. We appreciate that, joanne. 65, though. The normal high is 64. 61 in white plains. Its already 66 in belmar. Numbers compared to yesterday, 7 to 14 degrees warmer, so youre feeling it. And theres more humidity. Now weve got pretty skies in the city. Rockland, westchester, putnam. A few more clouds to the west. Showers circling the city, so passing showers this morning. Best candidates to the north. Then that next line fills in possibility of an isolated thunderstorm. Youve got the lift in the atmosphere, as we head to 80. It will feel like june today. Make sure youre ready for that. Not a lot of rain this morning, but we could see isolated strong storms late tonight into the first part of your saturday. Chris . John, thanks so much. Were back with another local update in 25 minutes. Im chris wragge. Right after this. Since when did experience become something to hide . I say we own it. Lose all that negativity. Just let it go. Its just bad energy. Oh, and lose those terrible black balloons they give you on your 50th. Whats up with that . Hey we hear you. Thats why our members love aarp the magazine. It celebrates you. With fun and provocative content, from lifestyle and entertainment to indepth reporting. And its just one of the great benefits of membership. If you dont think this is right for me when you think aarp, then you dont know aarp. What a thing to have been alive when prince was making music. We are all incredibly lucky. Well all miss you, prince. You are truly one of a kind. We lost an icon. We lost a leader. We lost many m many aspects a genre. Not many people are as influential enough to be known by one name let alone by one color. He was. In a small gesture of respect tonight, wed like to change the set in his honor. [ applause ] we understand that, Stephen Colbert<\/a> colbert. No surprise were wearing purple today. Welcome back to cbs this morning. Coming up in this half hour, more on the genius of prince. Epic records chairman and ceo, hello, l. A. Reid. In our green room, studio 57. Glad youre here. Hes launched a lot of brilliant careers. He says that prince was his biggest influence. Well ask him why. Looking ford that. Bringing shakespeare to the farthest corners of the world as we approach the 400th anniversary of his death. See how his words are being syrian refugees. In headlines from around the globe, canadas windsor star reports on the arrest of a man who allegedly posed as a high school student. Jonathan nicola is believed to be 30 years old. He was a star on the Catholic Central<\/a> High School Basketball<\/a> team in ontario. He is being detained for violating an immigration law. And time revisit an iconic sketch by Comedian Dave Chappelle<\/a> that inspired a prince song. In the skit, charlie murphy, brother of eddie murphy, played a game of basketball against prince in 1985 after a night of partying. Kind of hot out here, man. Why dont you purify yourself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka<\/a> . In your face, charlie murphy. Thats awesome. Look at the pancakes. Prince won by a landslide. And after the game, of course he served murphy pancakes. In 2013, prince released a song called breakfast can wait. The cover featured chappell dressed as Prince Holding<\/a> a plate of pancakes. Thats what you call princes sense of humor right there. Theres an example right there. The world this morning is remembering prince and the huge energy that he brought to all of his performances. Let me hear you scream prince put his musical prowess on display nine years ago at the super bowl halftime show. One person who knew the extent of his talents is epic records chairman and ceo l. A. Reid. He tweeted last night, this is what it sounds like when the world cries. Prince, i already miss you. Wow. Your medicals dolodies will live on forever. Great to have you here in the studio. Great to see you guys celebrate the life of this artist, performer. As sad as i am, im happy that hes being celebrated. The more you hear and the more that you read about him, its fascinating. Did he like being odd and mysterious . I think prince really loved the theater of mystery is how i put it, right. He understands the stage. Hes on stage even when hes not on stage. Hes always prince. When i was around him, he was always prince. There was never a moment that it was like, okay, were going to take off the prince and just become rogers nelson. Always might it be a different prince each time or different times . Hes a gemini. That comes with the with the package. He was very different as we saw with tavis smiley. Yeah because he can be, you know, reflective at times. You know, he was also really intelligent. He was equally as intelligent as he was talented. Yeah. Some him up musically. Its itn so many ways. I read earlier and i hope i dont mess this up, but ied that he was as defiant as james brown, as traditionally what is it as traditionally masculine as teddy pendergast, as electric as Michael Jackson<\/a> all in one all in one. There were blues, there was jazz, there was rock, there was funk, there was gospel, right. All in one. Commercial. And huge songs. One of a kind. Yeah. I keep thinking, too, of course his music, classic. Too, the businessman. The way he battled with warner. He didnt like digital. Didnt like streaming. Describe that side of him. Well, its interesting because he was as comfortable talking to other performers as he was talking to lawyers. We have a lawyer at sony, julie swidler, who sent so much time talking to prince about who spent so much time talking to prince about business and life. And he spent as much time doing that with comfort as he would with alicia keys, as a musician. Hes just the greatest. Ive said it many times. Im not saying it because we lost a great one, now me hes always been the greatest. You know, and no ones even close. You said he was a big influence on you. Are you talking about your clothes, you talking about your music, your style hes an influence on my clothes today because im wearing my purple shirt, which is a little unusual back in the day. When we were kids, just learning to play, i shouldnt say kids, i was probably 20. And i had a band, and we found our way because we became prince fans. So we created a band completely centered around prince, and when we were playing in nightclubs, we had prince competitions and in truth, we were prince compositions and our own compositions. In truth we were a recording band. He died at 57. The last concert was prince on a stage alone at a piano. Yeah. I mean, it is really pretty interesting. I mean, you know, in a lot of ways, it takes a great performer physician to even do that. Most of us require so many props, so many others. He was so great that he could do it by himself. The one thing that kind of spooks me about it all was he has a song called lets go crazy. It says dont let the elevator bring us down. He died one time privately he said, you know what the elevator is, the devil. Scared me. I dont like to talk like that. He said that, and so for me, it read that he was found in an elevator. What do you think he meant . Did he have Health Problems<\/a> . Right . What i know is that he was really health conscious. He was a vegan. He didnt abuse alcohol. Drugs. He worked out, you know. So that also really concerned me because it made me think, wow, you do all these things to take care of yourself and die so young . You know thats whats frightening to many people. Frightening. What about the androgyny . I think it was part of the theater of show. Particularly in the era that prince became famous, late 70s, earl 80s. David bowie, you know didnt seem to deter women from prince. He had an amazing did you tell me he would steal other women . What i would tell you is dont bring your girl around prince. Huge mistake. Huge mistake. Didnt he reach out to you recently about women . Didnt me . Yeah, yeah, yeah. Gayle, that was private its true, though. Yeah. He called me once because he knew he knew i had a friendship with someone that was really beautiful. And he wanted to meet them. He called me, and he met them. Good for prince is what i say. By the way, that was probably the last conversation i had. This man wrote i wannabe your lover. Lets go crazy. We are pro that. And the unreleased music, more to come. L. A. Reid, were thrilled to have you here. Thank you very much. Glad to be here. Thank you for celebrating the great one. Thank you guys. Thank you. Poet to how a theater compa countless films have brought to. Tomorrow is the 4 hundredth anniversary of his death. Celebrating with parades, performances. We have more from shakespeares theater in london with a tale of one remarkable tribute. Reporter hes held here as time. Successful at sports. Ladies and gentlemen, the production of hamlet. Reporter which is the simple aim of globe to globe. The challenge of taking hamlet on a twoyear tour to every country in the world, theres the rub. They t traveled 193,000 miles from afghanistan to zimbabwe, cuba to cameroon, tehran to thailand. 197 countries in all. It was an idea Globe Creative<\/a> directors stumbled on after a few pints at the pub. It was a stupid idea, were going to go every country in the world. And you can say it it caught on. Reporter it was too risky to get to syria, so they played to refugees when jordan when the tempest struck. The winds started whipping then it went completely black. We were in the middle of this biblical sandstorm. Reporter in rome, we caught up with naeem hyatt, one of two actors who play hamlet. Equally invigorating, exciting, but also terrifying. To get to say to be or not to be every senate probably one of the most privileged positions i think any actor can be in. Reporter that a longdead compote poet can transcend from High School Reading<\/a> to reach global audiences for 400 yeert is years it a testament to the bard storytelling. Thousands of words he made up, thousands of phrases, dozens of ways of thinking, which is what language and phrases are. Reporter like break the ice, in a pickle, wild goose chase, wear your heart on your sleeve, love is blind, and a as hamlet closes it end this, withs the final act for him, too. Parting is such sweet sorrow after dedicating much of his life to shakespeare. Well, not his entire life. Shakespeare died at 52. Youre retiring at 52 get out of here. Reporter was that part of your plan . No reporter well, his grandfather lived to 104. Hopefully its nothing to worry b. The real festivities worry about.
