"Emancipation" (Bloody awful, an enormous disappointment, and only one great song on it.) "Come" (hated it at first listen, still feel the same now.) "The Vault" (threw it away after one listen.) "NEWS" (nothing really wrong with it, just very, very boring.) "Symbol" (loved it at the time but quickly grew to hate it. Tony M. Rrrrr.) "Diamonds & Pearls" (very overrated at the time. Hated four of the tracks - "Strollin'", "Money Don't Matter 2 Night", "Willing and Able", "Jughead" - right from the first listen.) "For You" (VERY dated, lots of "boingy" synths, all falsetto.) And the ones that get me shot for daring to say bad things... "Lovesexy" (left me cold. Prince made a downturn from here.) "1999" (never liked it. Two or three classics, but every song goes on WAY too long, and some of it is cringeworthy.) 1999 is one of the best albums ever written , genius from start to finish & barely a bad second on the whole album! Money dont matter is one of the better tracks on D&P although i totally agree with jughead & strollin ..... YUK!!  4 me is one of his best 90's albums, everything P does on it is quality , just try & blank out Tony M 
Lovesexy is a superb album IMO ..... Come is 1 of his most underated albums ..... Pheromone ,Come & Space r superb tracks Anyway i respect that every 1 has there own opinion BUT i cant believe u have named all these quality albums in a worst of discussion & not even mention Chaos & Disorded which is probably the weakest album P has ever done!!

Come On is my favourite track on that album & it has 2 many decent moments 2 b his worst IMO! Live4Love

Well that's certainly true. I'll take a TRC over a NPS any day. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

prince music reminds me of other pop stars and pop in general, he's always very entertaining to my ear, i couldn't rate, each album has sentimental value. he hasn't got a worst album, if you ask me. my friends don't groove with gb or lovesexy and nps. i know all of his worst albums, thats why i posted.
as for nps... the songs aren't as poo in quality as might seem. i like funky music, shoo-bed-doo, get my heart racin. [Edited 1/21/06 9:49am] it's how an album makes you feel...i mean COME is one of my faves because it took me to another level, i mean ... it's genius. i wouldn't say lovesexy is worst, but i hadly listen to any of those tracks as much as i can listen to the come album and don't care too much about them... overall, alphabet street kicks arse. ...

I'd have to say, "Musicology." I bought it thinking I would love it and I was very disapointed. The media really made that album like it was his, "return to greatness" but in my book, it wasn't. I'm hoping 3121 is a lot better. | |

nothings wrong with musicology! in that case, it's the media. | |

Everything from NPS and on are pretty much equally horrible. | |

GustavoRibas said: Funny how tastes are different....lots of people put The Rainbow Children as one of the worst albums, when actually it´s one of his best albums when it comes to MUSIC.
I bet that, if the lyrics were about masturbation, sex and anarchy, the same people would have considered it his best album...go figure...Prince made lots of embarassing lyrics even on his classic albums... But it happens to every Prince album...even the weakest ones have great moments, and the great ones have embarassing / very bad moments. [Edited 1/20/06 3:36am] You Must mean "musicianship" because the actual MUSIC, as in the compositions, are just lame rehashes of everything we have already heard. It lacks "ORIGINALITY" This belongs right up there on the list of embarrassing albums. [Edited 1/21/06 13:22pm] | |
