Emancipation. The whole album.

I remember sitting through it just thinking, "This all sounds the same, and over produced", and "If he starts one more song by singing it's title...".

I don't know how such a long album can also sound so lazy! Like it was all recorded over one weekend.

Of course you've realized your mistake and you dig most of it now!

If jasminejoey is anything like me she (or he) will still not like that album. At all. I hated it with a passion then and I still don't like it today.

RIP Prince: thank U 4 a funky Time...

Another Prince song that I haven't liked from the start is Free. Such a boring song!

Strive

I had the same experience with Prince as I did with Lou Reed.

There was one song I liked and I couldn't understand the rest. It took a ton of listens before it finally clicked.
