PRINCE/1999

Descripción

CONSIDERED ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC AND INFLUENTIAL DOUBLE ALBUMS IN ROCK HISTORY PRINCES 1999 WAS RELEASED AT A MAJOR TURNING POINT IN THE ARTISTS CAREER. AFTER YEARS OF STRUGGLING TO BREAK OUT OF THE RB CHARTS HE EXPERIENCED HIS FIRST TRUE POP CROSSOVER MOMENT WITH THE MEGA-HITS LITTLE RED CORVETTE 1999 AND DELIRIOUS SHATTERING BARRIERS WITH HIS REVOLUTIONARY BLEND OF ROCK FUNK RB AND NEW WAVE POP AND MAKING HISTORY BY BEING ONE OF THE FIRST BLACK ARTISTS TO HAVE THEIR VIDEOS IN HEAVY ROTATION ON MTV. MUSICALLY 1999 ACHIEVED SOMETHING RARE IN POP MUSIC: IT CAPITALIZED ON A VERY SPECIFIC MOOD FROM THE TIME IT WAS CREATED YET THE RESULTING SOUND IS TIMELESS AND ITS APPEAL HAS ENDURED FOR DECADES.
