As the title says, if you could recommend some albums to Prince to help spark his creativity, maybe open him up to new sounds that he may not be exposed to, what albums would you pick?

I suppose I'll start off with a few albums I've been digging on vinyl recently;

What albums would you recommend for Prince?

Tune-yards, 'Nikki Nack'. Drum loops, electronic instrumentation, layered vocals... Prince could make an album like this is he wanted to. One of my favourite albums of 2014 (and I find I'm liking it more and more), it's bursting with creativity and it's all so energetic and interesting. I was listening to it the other day and I imagined what it would sound like to hear Prince singing in his falesetto on these songs. It sounded good.

Good call on the Bilal above.
