Decided to start a thread with a slightly different angle on P's intimate relationships with women.
Instead of which woman was most important to him & it being some sort of bizarre, patriarchal fest of which woman was #1, how about we talk about how each positively influenced & inspired him?

Who do you think influenced/inspired P from 1991 - 2000?
It can be anyone - male or female. List more than one if you like.

I think we know pretty much who influenced the majority of Prince’s music during this period. If it wasn’t WB, it was mostly about his greatest muse, Mayte Garcia.

Oh, hi Mayte 🖐️
That's not humble brag is it?

His relationship with Warner Brothers

a huge impact that whole time period

directly and indirectly

A lot of the output was in direct response to his WB contracts

Mayte doesn’t really have to brag. This was one time period (actually the only time period) when Prince was candid about his inspiration.

His baby boy was also an inspiration on at least 2 songs that I know of.
