The Cartoonist Known as Prince

The Guardian has a piece on Prince’s new posthumous memoir “The Beautiful Ones.” Included in the book are cartoons written and drawn by Prince, who’d been drawing since he was a boy.

From the piece:

“The book contains cartoons by Prince (he called them ‘Prince’s Funnies’), details of his first kiss, memories of watching R-rated movies at the local drive-in, and disses of the media conglomerates who control contemporary US music (‘We need to tell them that they keep trying to ram Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran down our throats and we don’t like it no matter how many times they play it’).”

  1. Great find! I credited The Daily Cartoonist when I linked to it on my Twitter, so six or eight people found out about you.
