"A fascinating, authoritative biography of one of the most
commercial, controversial, and influential musicians of all
time
"In his three decades-long of recording, Prince has had nearly
thirty albums hit the Billboard Top 100. He is the only artist
since the Beatles to have a number one song, movie, and single at
the same time. Prince's trajectory--from a teenage unknown in
Minneapolis to an idol and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer--has won him
millions of adoring fans.
"Prince "is the first book to give full treatment to this
30-year career of epic proportions. Acclaimed music journalist
Ronin Ro traces Prince's rise from anonymity in the late 70s, to
his catapult to stardom in the 80s, to his reemergence in the 21st
century as both an artistic icon and a starmaker. Ro chronicles the
music, showing how Prince and his albums helped define and inspire
a generation. Along the way, Prince confronted labels, fostered
other young talents, and took ownership of his music, making a
profound mark on the entertainment industry and pop culture.
In this authoritative biography, Ro digs deep to reveal the man
behind some of the most important music of our time.
