Is Prince the greatest artist of all time?

[Majestic Pape]

how the fukk can stevie wonder be better when he cant even get dressed

Because you don't have to be dressed to make great music...

 

[Deafheaven]

Yes, definitely in the conversation.

the amount of talent that man has is ridiculous and purple rain is easily one of the GOAT albums ever released.

 

[Killer Instinct]

I prefer MJ

Agreed. Prince was the truth, though.

Stevie Wonder is to me, but really you can't go wrong with Prince or Mike Jack or Miles Davis or Nas or any of a host of other artists.

Gotta ride with you on this! Stevie is a PROPHET!!!

Take care of your health! Don't be ashamed... you are worth it!

"If I gave you diamonds and peeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaarls"....

That break at 2:29....

I remember my parents used to jam the fukk out to this record when I was a kid...I went to a catholic school until 7th grade ()....I remember my mom pulling up ready to drop me and my brother off blasting this shyt....

Only when I rediscovered the record when I was older did I realize how dirty some of this shyt was....

take out MJ and Nas, and add Jimi Hendrix... some homies from the Beatles and Led Zeppelin.... and RZA

Cant give Prince that title. He has a lot of good singles but his albums be like half filler. He has 1 album you can say is great in Purple Rain.

I know MJ didnt play the instruments on his shyt but his albums were heat and thats what i care about. Add in that Jackson 5 stuff and its no comparison.

 

[Thalidomide]

Absolutely. 100 percent. No doubt.

The rockist, "he didn't play instruments" stuff is such bullshyt. I respect dudes who play their own instruments but what ultimately matters is the music. Who cares if someone didn't write their own song or play the fukking drums? Some of the best music ever created was made that way.

 

[chineebai]

I haven't read a single response as to why he's the best besides posting hit songs and saying he plays all these instruments.

Dirty Mind, Controversy, 1999, Parade, Around the World in a Day, Sign 'O' the Times, Diamonds and Pearls

Heck, I'd even throw in the Gold Experience and the Rainbow Children

You named a bunch of albums you would have to be a Prince fan to know. A couple of those albums didnt even have big hits on them.

Off top everyone knows the names of MJ albums, then you can name numerous hits off each one.
