The album he was born to make "The album he was born to make" tagline was given to Emancipation, but I don't think it was well deserved. Which one album would you give this to? I would give it to Dirty Mind. Not because it was his best, but because that's the album he told the world he was not just going to play it safe with another For You or self-titled rated PG softball follow-up. Runner up would be Crystal Ball/SOTT due to the organic feel and unbelievable level of output. Ancient Egyptians postulated 7 souls.
Top soul, and the first to leave at the moment of death, is Ren, the secret name... | |

For you,Emancipation and Dirty mind do have a very personal feeling involved with identity, like they are saying this is me and hee is my work. | |

Sign O The Times is a good sample of Prince at his best. Even the lyrics were better than usual. | |

Fenwick and I were going over Emancipation today, and the fluff on it. We wanted to pick the very best songs (for us) to make one CD. Yes, I know, the eternal debate. Why cut up Prince's stuff? Well because some of it isn't great.
I divided it into two sets of songs, one 8 and one 7 (however it would work out) and played with Side A and Side B ideology, instead of one long CD. So "Sleep Around" started Side B. I wanted "My Computer" to end it since it's the AOL sound saying "Goodbye."

his name change was meant to signal a rebirth. ie the birth of something new. reborn to make something he couldnt make before. ie emancipation. | |

another day, another new emancipation sequence. alternative emancipation tracklists are like a form of fan fiction that will never die. | |

Yep. And? I mean, one of us has to be post something coherent, and I've clearly had to pick up that mantle on the regular. If you have a problem with me, text me. If you don't have my number, you don't know me well enough to have a problem with me. | |

Um, that whole campaigne was full of gimmicks. Don't get me wrong, the music was great!!! i couldn't possibly put just one album under that moniker, as Prince couldn't've either "Whatever skin we're in
we all need 2 b friends" | |

Yeah, that version of Emancipation sucks. You've left out most of the albums strongest cuts. The Holy River, Face Down, New World, Friend Lover Sister Mother Wife and Joint 2 Joint are all better songs than three quarters of your list. [Edited 12/9/23 12:57pm] | |
