Best Prince Album of this decade?

As far as commercially and most loved on the org?

I have to say its 3121. It appealed to youth plus it debuted at number one. its still one of my favorites.

3121 is my favorite of the 2000s as well.

"I'm a lover, not a haitcher"- Pandurito

I don't have them all so I can't really say.

In my opionion:

Most complex and and artistic album - TRC
Most accessible and catchy album - MPLSound

Lotusflower - This album is pure fantastic. So many awesome songs, dreamer, $, feel better..., Wall of berlin, 4ever, and who could not forget boom!!

This album deserves some credit as one of the best albums of 2009, brilliant!

3121 is best. I am still listening to it. Black Sweat and Lolita are his funkiest and most catchy songs of the decade. Fury is his best rock/r&b of the decade. Title song is like a gem from the Parade area and Get on the boat is one of his most joyful rockabilly songs (I usually don't like that type of songs). Te Amo Corazón is a mystique piece of work and unique. The Word is well written and thoughtful. The rest is fine!

Don't get me wrong, I actually like the other albums, especially Planet Earth and LOtUSFLOW3R/MPLSoUND but for me 3121 is his best by far.

From the Lotusflow3r...Somewhere in the south pacific....in the corner of my studio.

it's not even close.
Lotusflow3r by a MILE.

Lotusflow3r.

This has been a very solid decade for Prince - commercially and artistically. Things looked bleak after Rave and during the NPGMC period, but he pulled it together and is still going strong. Good for him!

lotusflow3r.

Although I've been on a 3121 kick. Both are great.

If you mean in the past 10 years, it'd be Rave. If you mean in the 00's, it'd be Planet Earth, followed by 3121.

Well for me it's MPLSound, but Lotusflow3r and The Rainbow Children are not far behind.

So one nite alone beats 1999 (just out of the decade?) Sounds right up my alley

I thought we were talking about the 2000s?

3121 for the first four tracks and "The Dance". The album's progressing quite wonderfully, and then you get to "Incense and Candles". Blegh.

LotusFlow3r
Musicology
3121

I can't choose They're all really good..

was gonna go w 3121 but then someone mentioned Incense and Candles and I remembered BLAB (or Blah!), so I'll go for Lotusflow3r which pips TRC, because of the lyrical content of the latter (altho musically it may win...)
