In April 2016, just days after Prince passed, we spoke with the artists who knew him best — his inner circle.

These are real conversations — raw, emotional, and happening in real time.

This special features voices from Prince’s world including John Blackwell, Matt “Doctor” Fink, Tommy Barbarella, Taja Sevelle, Elisa Fiorillo, St. Paul Peterson, Jacqui Thompson, and Tamar Davis — sharing memories, grief, insight, and the legacy of one of music’s greatest artists.

This is not a retrospective.

This is how it felt… in the moment.
