A guitar virtuoso known for his genre-crossing work, falsetto singing voice and flamboyant stage appearances, Prince is regarded as one of the greatest musicians of all time.
His innovative music integrated a wide variety of styles, including funk, rock, R&B, new wave, soul, psychedelia, and pop.
Prince pioneered the late 1970s Minneapolis sound, a funk rock subgenre drawing from synth-pop and new wave.
Born and raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Prince developed an interest in music as a young child and wrote his first song, "Funk Machine", at the age of seven.
He signed a recording contract with Warner Bros. Records at the age of 19, and released his debut album "For You" in 1978.

He released five records between 1994 and 1996 before he signed with Arista Records in 1998.
In 2000, he began referring to himself as "Prince" again.
He subsequently released 16 albums, including "Musicology" (2004), which was his most successful album of the 2000s.

He won seven Grammy Awards, seven Brit Awards, six American Music Awards, four MTV Video Music Awards, an Academy Award, and a Golden Globe Award.
He was also honored with special awards including the Grammy President's Merit Award, the American Music Award for Achievement and of Merit, and the "Billboard" Icon Award.
