Is Prince the prince of FUNK?
Musicology
Personally I would say so, and in the steps of the Kings of funk like [tag]James Brown[/tag] and George Clinton, Prince is on he’s way to becoming a King of Funk. Ahmm.. mabey I should stop with these monarchistic terms as I don’t subscribe to them.
I heard Prince’s Musicology cd a few weeks back and I thought “Yes, this guy has a DEEP scence of music, particularly the Funky kind”. Honestly, some tracks on this CD are just pure G. I would even take my hat off to have a jam with this dude.

Prince is certainly the pricne of FUNK. Actually he looks more like the gatekeeper of FUNK protecting it and only allowing in what can really become funky.

DId anyone see the clip on you tube when James Brown invited Prince and Michael Jackson on stage? That was funny. Prince was carried to stage by his bodyguard, then he mustta thought HE was the KING of Funk.. only thing is the real Godfather and King of funk and soul was standing next to him.
Hmmm, thats one way of looking at it.

In His Dreams Maybe But Of FUNK MUSIC?? Not Possible Because He Concentrated Too Much On A More POP SOUND To Sell Records. I GIve Him Credit, When He Made Funky Songs, It Sounded Good But Then He Just Continued Making All That Weak Radio Pop Music. Its Sad Because His Roots Are Funky But When You Think Of Him, FUNK MUSIC Doesn't Come To Mind At First. I Would Agree With This, You Can Say That He Is The King Or Prince Of The GREAT MINNEAPOLIS Funky Sound(MPLS SOUND). Peace
FONK FOR LIFE
