Prince on Prince gets behind the controversies to tell the Prince story in his own words.  Among the most respected and influential entertainers of the twentieth century, breaking sexual, racial, and creative barriers throughout his almost 40 years in the spotlight, he was a multitalented studio artist, a master songwriter who produced and performed almost all his own music on yearly LPs and countless singles and videos. He fought for artists' rights, changed his name to a glyph, and took a star turn in the Oscar-winner Purple Rain. But he was also a quiet, private individual, reluctant to talk about the work he felt should speak for itself. This volume offers a chronological look at some of Prince's most entertaining and revealing interviews, from 1978 and the release of his debut LP, For You, to a 2015 interview conducted only months before his untimely death at the age of 57. This volume offers a view of the man as he sought to portray himself to journalists throughout his career.
