Prince: is he funky? Does he rock?

Well, of course we know that he's funky and that he rocks! But what is he best at? Is he more funky than he rocks? Or is soul is best music?

I think he used to be funky, then he rocked more and now as he settles into middle age i think he may be turning into a jazz artist. I like the combination of all of them, but he's not as funky anymore.

He is funky and he rocks. But, I kinda have to agree with DMSR, that he has lost some of his funkiness. I hope he gets it back soon. The new jazz sound is veeeeery nice, but I would not want that to be the only sound he sticks with.

I think he's funk-wave jazz-core.

I personally think that he can be so funky, it hurts ! Aaaargh!
example: the bass he plays during Cat's rap on Alphabet St.

I wouldn't have any problems with him turning into an jazz musician. But I don't really think that he will ever stick to one musical style

Gnammmete all,

Prince is a complex musician... He has MUSIC (i mean all kind o' Music) in His DNA, we cant put him in just a music category: he does funk, rock, jazz, soul, pop, symphonic (Kamasutra) and i believe He will wonder us w/ other kind o' Music next months... years, that's why i (L) Him so!!
