Our Take

Prince's "Controversy" is a deliciously daring addition to his royal discography, blending funky rhythms with provocative lyricism that's sure to set tongues wagging. From the opening track "Controversy" where Prince challenges societal norms and expectations, to the infectious groove of "Sexuality," this album is a rollercoaster of emotions that will leave you questioning, dancing, and possibly blushing. The Minneapolis maestro showcases his unparalleled talent for blending genres, seamlessly moving from the new wave-infused "Do Me, Baby" to the rock-tinged "Private Joy" with effortless ease. The standout track "Ronnie, Talk to Russia" is a politically charged anthem that still resonates today, showcasing Prince's ability to make a statement without sacrificing his infectious melodies. Of course, it wouldn't be a Prince album without some steamy love songs, and "Do Me, Baby" delivers in spades. Prince's falsetto reaches dizzying heights as he croons about passion, desire, and everything in between. It's a seductive showcase of Prince's vocal prowess and his ability to captivate listeners with his sensual melodies. Overall, "Controversy" is a must-listen for any Prince fan or music lover looking to explore the boundaries of pop music. It's a testament to Prince's iconic status as a boundary-pushing, genre-blending, and endlessly fascinating artist. Prepare to be challenged, delighted, and thoroughly entertained by this gem of an album. Long live Prince!
