The recipient of numerous awards and nominations, he is widely regarded as one of the greatest musicians of his generation. He was known for his flamboyant, androgynous persona; his wide vocal range, which included a far-reaching falsetto and high-pitched screams; and his skill as a multi-instrumentalist, often preferring to play all or most of the instruments on his recordings. Prince produced his albums himself, pioneering the Minneapolis sound. His music incorporated a wide variety of styles, including funk, R&B, rock, new wave, soul, synth-pop, pop, jazz, and hip hop.

Born and raised in Minneapolis, Prince signed a record deal with Warner Bros. Records at the age of 19, soon releasing the albums For You (1978) and Prince (1979). He went on to achieve critical success with the influential albums Dirty Mind (1980), Controversy (1981), and 1999 (1982). His sixth album, Purple Rain (1984), was recorded with his new backing band the Revolution, and was also the soundtrack to the film of the same name in which he starred. Purple Rain garnered continued success for Prince and was a major commercial achievement, spending six consecutive months atop the Billboard 200 chart. The soundtrack also won Prince the Academy Award for Best Original Song Score. After disbanding the Revolution, Prince released the album Sign o' the Times (1987), widely hailed by critics as the greatest work of his career. In the midst of a contractual dispute with Warner Bros. in 1993, he changed his stage name to the unpronounceable symbol logo. Hollow circle above downward arrow crossed with a curlicued horn-shaped symbol and then a short bar (known to fans as the "Love Symbol") and was often referred to as The Artist Formerly Known as Prince (or TAFKAP) or simply The Artist.

After signing with Arista Records in 1998, Prince reverted to his original name in 2000. Over the next decade, six of his albums entered the U.S. top 10 charts. In April 2016, at the age of 57, Prince died after accidentally overdosing on fentanyl at his Paisley Park home and recording studio in Chanhassen, Minnesota. He was a prolific musician who released 39 albums during his life, with a vast array of unreleased material left in a custom-built bank vault underneath his home after his death, including fully completed albums and over 50 finished music videos. He also released songs under multiple pseudonyms during his life, as well as writing songs that were made popular after being covered by other musicians, most notably "Nothing Compares 2 U" by Sinéad O'Connor and "Manic Monday" by the Bangles. Estimates of the complete number of songs written by Prince range anywhere from 500 to well over 1,000. Released posthumously, his demo albums Piano and a Microphone 1983 (2018) and Originals (2019) both received critical acclaim.

Prince sold over 100 million records worldwide, ranking him among the best-selling music artists of all time. His awards included the Grammy President's Merit Award, the American Music Awards for Achievement and of Merit, the Billboard Icon Award, an Academy Award, and a Golden Globe Award. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004, the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2006, and the Rhythm and Blues Music Hall of Fame in 2016, and was inducted twice into the Black Music & Entertainment Walk of Fame in 2022.

No injections. Look at that natural woman. Her and Shania Twain
Just awesome presence. She can stop time for a few seconds when she would walk into a room. Regardless if you knew who she was or not.
It happened to me. She walked right past me when I was 16. We both paused and were like who is that? I remember her looking back after she walked past with a little snicker. The owner of the cafe told us who it was. We went over and I asked for a autograph. She asked my name. She kissed the napkin and signed it to me. She laughed and said why are you turning so red? I literally could not speak. She was so cool. Now I'm almost 52. Hard to believe she is gone. I think of how normal she was then. Lets just say that knapkin is gold....

@hirokomlm131

I think you're confusing Michael with Quincy Jones. Quincy was Michaels producer. You can tell a producers sound regardless of who's singing on the song. Teddy Riley, Leon Silvers, Prince, Quincy Jones, DJ Premier, Will. I. am, etc. I don't think Michael had a stand-alone producer sound.

@butternutcrunch

26w↑3

Rick James would like to have a word with you.

@KnotPhound

25w

@@hirokomlm131 Thing about Michael is that he would come up with fully fleshed instrumental ideas for his songs and would then talk to Quincy about them to execute them. Quincy would add his own flavor then, as well as the other musicians working on the project, but most of it was MJ's idea. There's a big reason why even without Quincy, records like Dangerous and HIStory sound unquestionably Michael Jackson from a production standpoint.

Prince was more of a lone executer for sure, but he'd definitely work with some producers every once in a while. One time, he even asked Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis to produce a record he didn't felt he could do just by himself, but unfortunately, that album was never made. Prince could pretty much do almost the entire thing by himself (except for the engineering part) and he did for his first four albums, but was well aware of the fact that some people were better than him in some areas, which is why he'd always include his band since the album 1999.

@hirokomlm131

25w

@@KnotPhound MJ was not a producer. Of course he came to Quincy with ideas, I didn't say he wasn't creative. But being a producer means excepting the entire responsibility of the final product before it goes to radio and stores. A producer doesn't get to pass the project to a better producer before the debut. He's the last guy.

I love how high energy and raw this is. The sounds and everything. It's that hard hitting edgey pop sound that is still hard hitting even 40 years later or whatever year this is from. Love it, totally timeless. You could even argue this is more creative and hard hitting than newer music. Brilliance of 80's music is less is more and they were restricted to use less with the technology so you get raw hard smacking songs like this.

@dedpxl

And they know that's the scope to work with, and take advantage of it. The raw sexy lyrics make the whole song match the production values. It's just out there and plain. Intriguing but definitely quite forward. The lyrics are basically saying "don't you wanna spend the night with me, oh sorry do you think that was too forthcoming?" but in a relatively shameless way.

As I write this, it's Vanity/Denise's birthday. Had she lived, she'd be turning 62 today. I know that she renounced the Vanity persona, but I LOVED her as a kid and STILL DO today!!! I'm glad that she found Jesus before she left this realm and I believe that she is in heaven with him. She'd been a truly beautiful woman inside and out. Miss you, Vanity/Denise. You were 1 of the prettiest women to have ever walked the earth!!!! 39 years after Nasty Girls release, it's STILL a song that ROCKS!!!!

@Peter Evans>> First of all, where is your proof that she smoked crack cocaine, Mr Self Righteous? I am a RN who was employed a few years ago in a Substance Abuse Treatment Center in New York, I know all about Substance Abuse and the effects that it has on addicts, their families and friends. I also know that we all make mistakes in our lives and unfortunately some of us pay the ultimate price with our lives, and sadly that is what happened to Vanity. When I meet judgemental, sanctimonious, self righteous, pious individuals like yourself, I hope that you never have to know what it is like to lose a loved one to the disease of drug addiction.

Vanity was beautiful.....I remember seeing Prince and Vanity 6 in concert in 1984. I hated when Appollonia became the lead....she couldn’t sing or dance. RIP Vanity and Prince.

@aniialowe1980

My two cousins and I used to dance to this when we were little girls. I was always mad because I ALWAYS had to be the girl in the pink and I wanted to be Vanity. The same went for when we danced to Apollonia 6. Oh, well. At least I didn’t have to be the other girl. It’s crazy we used to listen to and sing all these songs and we had NO idea of the meaning.

Me and a buddy of mine met her when we were seniors in high school back in '84 in Hollywood at Tommy's burgers. It was late at night and she was so nice to us and talked with us, joking and laughing. We were practically the only ones there. Unable to eat our burgers though because our tongues were on the floor, she was so fine. 😂😂😂

Oh Miss Denise you were anything but nasty! I would have to say that you were one of the nicest ladies I ever met! I hope you and Prince are at least chilling in the VIP room being treated right in the afterlife because you treated me right when I went to see you at your church. Rest in peace both of you and thank you so much for what you both did for music. Hold my spot on the dance floor. I'll see you guys when I get there...
