Best album after Lovesexy?

Quite simply, what do you think was the best Prince album released after the last great Prince album (Lovesexy).

For me, it's a choice between the Batman soundtrack and The Gold Experience, and you know what, Bats wins it.

Your Choice?

my favorites after Lovesexy. One any given day it could be any of these. Today I'll say Emancipation.

I don't perceive Lovesexy to be a great album but it is a good one and spawned a great tour. After Lovesexy, Prince has had several very good albums (Grafitti Bridge based on prince songs only, Exodus, TGE, ONA, and I am an outlyer thinking The Chocolate Invasion is terrific, and Musicology), but the post peak album I experience as being great in AOA.

My favourite post-Lovesexy album is Diamonds and Pearls. I Don't know if it's his best artistically, but it's my favourite.

The best album after the black album (Lovesexy was and is such a disappointment) for me is a tie between Exodus and The Rainbow Children. He's had a lot of flashes of brilliance throughout the last 30 years, but I felt his albums always were uneven.

Come and 3121.

Grafitti Bridge is not really a 90's album and beyond even though it was released in 1990. It's a bunch of 80's carry overs.

Musicology. Why? Because Prince the songwriter was back. No segues, no raps, no preaching, no silly concepts, just music.
3121 and Lotusflower are also good.

The Gold Experience. Once I heard "I Hate U" on the radio and bought the casette tape, that was IT for me. I knew nothing about Prince's war with WB back then...

Difficult.

Exodus - but that doesn't count does it?

The Rainbow Children

Then:

Lotus Flower

Come

Art Official Age

The Gold Experience hasn't aged as well as Come or Exodus, to these ears, for some reason.

Lovesexy was not a great album or Prince's last great album.

Loved it and my fondness grew over time.

AOA was his last great album and the best R&B album of the 21st Century.
