“Lovesexy” is the tenth studio album by American recording artist Prince. The album was released on May 10, 1988 by Paisley Park Records and Warner Bros. Records, a little over a year after Prince’s previous studio album, “Sign O’ The Times”, which received critical praise and a Grammy nomination for Album of the Year. Lovesexy received mixed reviews; it was issued as a substitute record after the last minute cancellation of the infamous “The Black Album”. The album was recorded in just seven weeks, from mid-December 1987 to late January 1988, at Prince’s new Paisley Park Studios, and most of the album is a solo effort from Prince, with a few exceptions. Full 1988 tour film and album documentary below.

Prince died two years ago today. The renowned artist’s career spans over 6 decades, leaving behind hundreds of songs in multiple genres under his own name and pseudonyms.
Born in Minnesota as Prince Rogers Nelson in 1958, he would soon experience a career like no other and become known for his exhilarating stage presence, fashion sense and wide vocal range. The artist passed away suddenly on 21 April 2016 from an allegedly accidental fentanyl overdose. However, many have their suspicions regarding the circumstances of his passing. Dying at the age of 57, he was cremated after his autopsy which ruled his death as accidental.
