Yeah, I'd have to agree. He is rounded, urban and rock, and understands the legacy of what he would be producing. I thing he would bring back the rawness that is missing too. . | |

What I've read from pretty much anyone who has worked with Rick is that he does very little to shape the sound during the recording process. In fact, he's often not even there. He'll come back in after songs have been recorded, say "yes, no" or "how about you try changing that around" or "how about you drop that part". So in that regard, a lot of his "sound" must come from the mix down and mastering process. Regardless, I think this style might actually work with Prince. | |

I forget which band, but the lead singer was pissed! becasue he was rarely there and he felt they were paying him wayyy too much money for him not to be around for most of the recording. [Edited 1/15/12 20:05pm] | |

Yep. He's definitely not one of those heavy-handed taskmaster kind of producers. | |

Actually, in all honesty Kanye is an incredibly talented producer, there should be no big "Noooos" but if your going for a hiphop producer use Dr. Dre, the guy who makes some of the best beats ever, without heavily using samples (which I am not against using). | |

Aren't Dre's biggest songs rewrites of classic funk material?
Outside of Dre's work on Snoop's Doggystyle record, is there anything else you could use as an example of his work? | |

I would like for Erykah Badu to produce him. Missy Elliott and Darkchild would be another one as long he doesnt say 'Darkchild' on the damn songs. | |

So...30 plus years into his career, for someone who has essentially trademarked "Written, composed, arranged, and performed by"...you want him to work with another producer?? Sometimes I think some of you should look into kickin your meth habit, seriously.

I don't think he needs a producer. He needs a band that is creative. I know he prefers tight over creative, but he needs folks who will push his boundaries a little. Christian Zombie Vampires | |

Butch Vig would be great (producer/Garbage drummer). His work on Foo Fighters last album was fantastic. He's skilled at stripping things back and bringing out an artists "essence" which would be great for P. I think Prince has a tendancy to over-produce at times. I'd like to hear something a little less sparkly and a little more "raw". | |

Lay It Down is a studio album by American recording artist Al Green, released May 27, 2008, on Blue Note Records.[11] The album was produced by Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson of the The Roots and James Poyser. Four tracks feature guest artists, two with Anthony Hamilton, and one each with John Legend and Corinne Bailey Rae.[1] Lay It Down is Green's first Top 10 Album since 1973, and, according to Metacritic, has received universal acclaim from several music publications.
Critical reception Lay It Down has received much critical acclaim by media outlets such as Blender, Entertainment Weekly, and Allmusic, to name a few. The album was applauded for bringing in younger producers and giving Green a more youthful sound. Allmusic commented: "What happens when you put that amazing soul-drenched voice in the hands of hip-hop producers ?uestlove and James Poyser, and add a slew of superstar guests? Answer: a killer Al Green soul album".[1] Blender remarked that Green had "created a natural-sounding album with occasional horns and strings, taking cues directly from [his] best old records".[12] It has also scored a rating of 81/100 from Metacritic, based on 22 critical reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".[13] "Lay It Down" was number 15 on Rolling Stone's list of the 100 Best Songs of 2008.[14]

Love Sly and Robbie. Very good suggestion. I'd LOVE to see Prince do an album where each track is produced by a different producer. THAT would be interesting and wonderful. | |

Thanks for sharing that but no one I know has ever heard the record.
One week sales landing in the top 10 doesn't in any shape or form mean that this record was a hit record.
Sorry kid... not even a good try.

Same could be said for Prince's last 4 albums. So why not try something new/different? Quest is a huge Prince fan who I'm sure could offer him some fresh ideas.

"No one I know" doesn't translate to an assumption that no one at all wants to listen to a Questlove production. How can that be measured?. That's all i'm saying. So non-hit records prove that absolutely no one wants to listen to them?... okay
