Prince was an American singer-songwriter. He produced ten platinum albums and thirty Top 40 singles during his career and founded his own recording studio and label. In addition, Prince was a "talent promoter" for the careers of Sheila E., The Time, Vanity 6, Jill Jones, Wendy & Lisa, 3rdEyeGirl, Rosie Gaines, Tevin Campbell, Ingrid Chavez and The NPG. His songs have been recorded by Chaka Khan, The Bangles, and Sinéad O'Connor.

Prince also had several hundred unreleased songs in his "vault". He won seven Grammy Awards, a Golden Globe, and an Academy Award. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004, the first year he was eligible. Rolling Stone ranked Prince No.27 on its list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.

In 1993, Prince changed his stage name to the Love Symbol, which was explained as a combination of the symbols for male (♂) and female (♀). Because the symbol had no stated pronunciation, he was often referred to as "The Artist Formerly Known as Prince," as well as "The Artist." He changed his name back to "Prince" in 2000.

He died at his home in Chanhassen, Minnesota on April 21, 2016.
