In an alternative universe where Prince only wrote the songs that have been released posthumously and you ....... have been tasked by the record label to curate 6 albums to be released from 1982-1987 from the below tracks. You don’t need to use all of them. Just six albums. If you can’t be bothered, comment on how you think his career would be viewed today if he was only active in 82-87 and only released from the below material, a large catalog in and of itself by most other artists standards. The Dance Electric Love And Sex Computer Blue (“Hallway Speech” version) Electric Intercourse (studio) Our Destiny / Roadhouse Garden Possessed (1983 version) Wonderful Ass Velvet Kitty Cat Katrina’s Paper Dolls We Can Fuck Father’s Song Sex Shooter Jungle Love Manic Monday Noon Rendezvous Make-Up 100 MPH You're My Love Holly Rock Baby, You're a Trip The Glamorous Life Gigolos Get Lonely Too Love... Thy Will Be Done Dear Michaelangelo Wouldn't You Love to Love Me?

Would be strong enought but I'm not sure it would be iconic as he's now regarded, I mean in a universe without WDC, PR, SOTT, 1999, Kiss, LRC, DM, IIWYGF, LGC. He wouldn't be the iconinc Prince we know today. | |

Think about every 80s night you’ve been stuck at. How people go nuts for even one hit wonders. There’s more than enough solid gold in the above list to have been a huge 80s icon in my opinion.

For context. The above list is approximately the same amount of material as Michael Jackson released from Off The Wall right up to and including his two posthumous albums. We’ve had a HUGE career’s worth of material released since 2017 alone. I’m just trying to appraise it alone. If the milk turns out to be sour, I aint the kinda pussy to drink it! |

They are not very good albums unfortunately. | |

Probably wouldn't have had many hits. But would've been a highly regarded alternative artist i think. We're here, might as well get into it. | |
