i think my feelings on this are pretty much expressed in comments above. Prince NEVER made a record because a record company pointed him in a certain direction. It’s Prince’s house, and for better and worse,
it should remain so.
I’m convinced that any outside intervention into Prince’s music or creative process would suffocate who Prince is. I’m not the least bit interested in seeing Prince record any other way, despite the fact that I may not personally like everything he does. His modus operandi is what makes him Prince and his repertoire so preciously unique.
