I think you’re a little silly for assuming that directly references Prince. I wasn’t even alive when all that stuff with Prince was happening and I had only heard it happened in a conversation I had with my mom when I was like 12.
That’s just kinda what you call something that was formerly known as something else when the something else is not well received.
It was popularized by the Prince situation whether people know that today or not.
