Prince Forgot His Own Plans? Bassist Spills Memory Loss Secrets

Prince’s inner circle knew something was seriously wrong before his death. Revolution bassist BrownMark just revealed the music legend was in “a panic” over losing his memory — and it got weird fast.

“I knew something was wrong,” BrownMark told Page Six. “Something was not right with his memory and his behavior.” The bassist claims Prince even forgot asking him to relocate 2,000 miles away. Yeah, you read that right. The Icon forgot a major life decision he’d made with one of his closest collaborators.

BrownMark played with Prince for years, so he wasn’t just some random observer. This wasn’t Prince being forgetful about a dinner reservation — this was memory issues serious enough to freak out a man who’d worked alongside him through decades of creative genius. The behavioral changes paired with the memory loss had those around him genuinely concerned.

The bassist didn’t elaborate on the timeline or what exactly triggered the memory problems, but the fact that he’s speaking up now shows how alarmed people close to Prince actually were in his final days.
