what genre was prince
Funk/R&B, though he's done Pop/Rock and a few others. Prince doesn't even have a definition for the genre of his music. During the Larry King interview, he said something like: Just because I don't like categories, all I can think of is inspirational.hat way you can shuffle the genre and your guaranteed to only hear Prince stuff (as opposed to shuffling the artist, in which case you would only get stuff credited to Prince as the artist). bellanoche said: I ran into this dilemma when I first got my iPod and began adding all of my Prince music to it.
