Released in October 1981, Controversy captures Princes evolving worldview, and brings his songs out of the bedroom and onto the dancefloor and into the streets to protest the political tension that would come to define the era. We need a new breed leaders, stand up, organize, Prince proclaims on Sexuality, setting forth a new mission statement: that the personal (and sexual) is also political, and that the quickest route to liberation is to let your body be free. When Controversy was released, The New York Times declared that Princes black-white synthesis isnt just a picture of what could be, its a prophecy.

Possibly my favorite Album behind 1999. Old School "Rude Boy" Prince. Probably the funkiest Album.

Depending on what day you ask me this just might be my favorite Prince album. It's not accurate to say this is the album where he hit his stride because he kinda did that right outta the gate, but I think it's the album where his identity and vision were solidified. Controversy the song will always be a favorite dance floor banger of mine.
