Get to know the "Real" Prince - Behind the MusicHere's Just a Taste What You'll See In This Rare Prince Biography:Image and ControversyAlthough controversial pop stars were not a first at the time when Prince was achieving fame, he was certainly the first artist to encompass so many qualities. Journalist Nik Cohn described him as "rock's greatest ever natural talent". And rightly so: he was at the same time a music prodigy (a skilled multi-instrumentalist with an incredible wide voice range), a showman and also a completely new kind of sex symbol; he became so not by exaggerating, but by defying the norms of gender and racial signifiers. His androgynous look and sensual stage presence added to a flamboyant style that was mainly dominated by flashy costumes and, in the words of the LA Times, ubiquitous purple.A lot of Prince's songs were just as provocative as his stage presence. One of his songs in particular, Darling Nikki, prompted a group of people to start a censorship organization called, Parents Music Resource Center (P.M.R.C.). The track was using description of grinding ludicrous acts such as masturbating, which made many listeners uncomfortable (to say the least). Prince however, knowing that every kind of publicity is good publicity, continued to release various other singles with the same themes. Some of these most memorable releases include: Around The World In A Day, Parade, Love Sexy, and Batman.Personal LifeLittle is known about Prince's personal life. Contrary to his hedonistic stage presence, he was a rather reserved person, preferring to spend his time at his compound in Paisley Park, avoiding the lights of publicity. We do know however that he was involved in romantic relationships with celebrities as Kim Basinger, Vanity, Sheila E (with whom he worked together on two of her albums), Carmen Electra, Susanna Hoffs, Anna Fantastic, Sherilyn Fenn, Susan Moonsie of Vanity 6 and Apollonia 6. Prince was engaged to the singer-songwriter Susannah Melvoin in 1985. In 1996, in the age of 37, he married Mayte Garcia, a 22-year-old backup singer and dancer. Soon after they had a son, Boy Gregory; however, the baby boy was born with Pfeiffer Syndrome and died just a week later. Mayte later revealed that the couple lost another baby.People Are Raving About This Book! There would be nobody else like Prince. And I somehow found solace by reading this book. - Victor D.
