Prince's complex, sprawling and eclectic masterpiece shows Prince in full command of his craft. With the use of a drum machine, digital sampler, digital synthesizer and his alter ego Camille, Prince creates an album overflowing with ideas, excess and creativity. Constantly mixing music genres in every track, from rock, to funk, to soul, to psychedelic pop, to electronic, to R&B, Prince always manages to do something new, different, weird, phenomenal but never repetitive, generic or redundant in terms of sound or lyrics.
