Like Bowie, Prince is one of those artists who I can’t imagine being unimpressed with at any point of time. The way he brings so many styles of music together- pop, rock, R&B, new wave, doo wop, even touches of metal and country- as seamlessly and synthetic as possible makes sure this album never stops vibing. And when you think you know what’s coming next, he comes up with a hook that blows you away. The movie is mid though. There are very few albums that I think deserve an A+. This is one of them.

This album is so good. It has so much of what people like to parody Prince for, but done so god damn well. I challenge anyone to listen to Baby I'm a Star and not shake their ass. 4/5
This was fun, but I've never really connected w/ Prince for some reason. I didn't dislike it, but I can tell it's not something I'd go back to much. 3/5
