Can Prince be compared to a historic figure?

Can Prince be compared to a person in history? I started thinking of comparisons with Mozart but there weren't as many as I thought there might be. Has there been anyone in history with his talent, output and public attitude?

Just curious if there are any history students out there who see comparisons with anyone.
The expanded version of my book PRINCE and The Purple Rain Era Studio Sessions 1983-1984 was released in November 2018. (www.amazon.com/gp/product/1538114623/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0) or www.facebook.com/groups/1...104195943/

Actually, Mozart is quite close in terms of his prolific nature, his way with women, both had that 'crazy/genius' thing going on, and both were child prodigies to certain extents.

(and, of course, both had a thing for white ruffled lace!)
