LotusFlow3r & MPLSound. LotusFlow3r & MPLSound don't get any love from the superficial MSM and they're simply brilliant. But I don't mind. Both albums flew below the corporatist radar and a like private personal letters to his fams. | |

Listened to both yesterday. Lotus is fantastic; I wore it out in 09 and it holds up. I always found MPLS less interesting and it didn't hold up as well as I recalled it. this message brought to you by logic. | |

Elixir is always forgotten or ignored, but it's good. Her singing is not up to par, but the songwriting is good. | |

Wall of Berlin is one of my favorite songs of his later career. | |

I remember when I bought the album(s), I found lotusflow3r to be more of a sequel to Planet Earth musically, whereas MPLSound felt like a PG funk album. I immediately enjoyed MPLSound more just for Valentina and chocolate box alone, however, as time has passed, I have found I appreciate lotusflow3r a lot more now as I believe it holds up better than MPLSound, but listening to them both as one package presents one of Prince's more underrated gems. | |

Lotusflow3r is amazing but I also like MPLSound alot. Elixir is good, definitely his best protege album since the 90s Welcome 2 The Dawn | |

Lotusflower is brilliant. Sadly, it has turned out to be his last truly great album. A late career highlight. Hundalasiliah! |

Love Lotus. You can hear he worked hard on it and there was some kick ass guitar playing

Happened to be listening to it right now. It's a fantastic set of albums, easily one of my favorite latter-day outings. | |
