Speaking of such a period, whatʼs your opinion on “The Black Album?”

Probably my favorite late-period Prince, Michael B., and Sonny T. groove.

How late we talking?

If we talking 90s peep:
Come
Diamonds and Pearls
Love Symbol
The Gold Experience got some joints on it but overall it's a pretty skippable project. The skits every other track also gets old real fast.

For 2000s:
The Rainbow Children is very hard in my opinion, way more jazz-funk inspired. I've been told the album was at its best when performed live because it sounds like one long jam session. Never got to hear that but when you listen to the album you definitely get that vibe. I recommend peeping it, it's a fun album.

Musicology and 3121 are very good, and if you loved his albums in the 80s then these albums are probably what you'd feel more comfortable with. They might not be as good as those 80s albums, but they are very familiar and they are still good albums if you wanna know "What would an 80s Prince sound like in the 'future'"

I never listened to Lotusflow3r but that joint is like three albums and one of them is of one of Prince's proteges?

2010s:
I personally really liked ArtOfficialAge and HitnRun Phase 1 and 2, I think they had a lot of a good funk R&B jams on those albums, but they seem to be pretty disliked among Prince faithful because they're seen as "too tame". But if you don't need super eccentric Prince then those are pretty good albums for that

Dani Leigh, Lizzo, and Lianne La Havas all got the Prince co-sign very early in the careers s*** was crazy to find out but it just goes to show that Prince was always tapped in early

Well maybe not so Dani Leigh but you get it lmao

I didn’t know that about Lianne loved her album but that makes it more cool

Why tf was he co-signing Dani Leigh tho and how did they even meet

So if I remember correctly Dani Leigh originally started out as a dancer/choreographer, from this she did a Prince impersonation that got Prince's attention and I think that's how she was discovered by him. I guess he must've liked her so much that he let her direct the music video for his track Breakfast Can Wait and the rest was history
