Vanity 6 is classic Mplssound

I'm playing the album again on CD and remember Vanity.

she was a personality.

she will go down in history as one of his best proteges.

the album is a classic for me and has so many great songs.

Wet dreams all.

much love to Vanity!!!

the Vanity 6 album was really ahead of its time.It is a unique blend of funk,New Wave,pop and even a taste of early rap ("If A Girl Answers (Don't Hang Up)".The in-your-face sexuality was unlike anything the other girl groups were doing back then,lol.

Yeah. For me, Vanity 6, 1999 and What Time Is It? are the quintessential 'Minneapolis Sound' albums. As far as Prince music goes, in my ear everything prior was leading toward that sound, and every thing after was a reaction to it.

Well the best protege is The Time - but Vanity is the best Prince chick (edging out Sheila E)

Who owns the rights to Vanity 6's music and the name Vanity 6?

Warner Brothers, right-cause Prince doesn't even have his own masters. I bet he owns the V6 name, though.

Do you think they will reissue the V6 album? I hope so.
