Name some things that only Prince originated...

Look, I've never seen anyone with the classic button-on-the-side
pants...totally original. They would sell very well if marketed
well.

And, the clear tapes...paisley park was the first, FACT.

Now U...
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

OK I know he didn't invent it but I always find it cute the way he would write out his lyrics & song titles...

Now it's pretty much standard for people to write that way on IMs or quick net messages ... (example) eye hate u. I never knew anyone else to write like that back in the day.

I heard that he had steel reinforced high heels, that allowed him to do his dances and jumps in the PR/ATWIAD/Parade/SOTT/Lovesexy period.

Also, the special designed keyboard he played in the 90's. What was it called? Maxxaxe or something.

And last: the strange genital construction that was on stage during one of his shows in the 90's.

must be other things, like special contracts for his protegees, restricting them to speak about Prince's personal live...

aside from cross dressers, a straight man in high heels is still rare,
and i'm sure he was the first.

You mean the first person to have THAT cast made into a guitar, or the first person to have an individually shaped guitar, because Prince sure wasn't the first.

No, it started with Purple Rain. Tipper Gore was upset that her 11 yr old
requested PR as a gift, Tipper bought it, and the word "masturbate" was
mentioned. Sort of mild with todays language.

There are quite a few articles of clothing that Prince was first to wear, and I'm guessing he'll be the last too!

but purple rain never got the label. (dirty mind did have a warning but not the black and white "explicit lyrics" one) the first prince album to have that label was "graffiti bridge"
