Prince VS David Bowie

[Bump]

prince is better tho they're both great. if i had to listen to like one or two songs, i'd pick david, but if i was going to listen to a whole album worth of music, i'd go with prince

Fundamentally and objectively incorrect btw.

>>69342324
Don't be rude to him.

I think Prince is better musically and was a more talented musician

Bowie was far better at creating an entire image that went with each album, much more creative an all around better imo

>>69342212
Very hard choice. I prefer Bowie, but it's almost too close to call. Bowie's "Low" is better than any album by Prince, but "Nothing Compares 2 U" is better than any song by Bowie.

Bowie's an innovator, Prince followed the trends

>>69342212
Fuck this I'm torn.

"Heroes" and 1999 are two of my favorite albums and ""Heroes"" and "Little Red Corvette" are two of my favorite songs. I was introduced to Bowie and a young age and he means a lot to me personally but I lived in Minneapolis until I went to St. Paul for college, and that's right next door anyway. Bowie affected me personally and Prince affected my socially. I can't choose.

Flip a coin.

>>69342429
Who's heads who's tails?

>>69342465
Bowie heads, Prince tails.

>>69342465

make a special coin where the heads is Low and the tails is Prince's symbol

>>69342212
>Prince VS David Bowie
Why not pick two artists that are actually good?
You're better off doing Eminem vs Nas.

What does this mean

Ziggy is such an overrated album
not in Bowie's top 5

>>69342679
Holy fuck. A sign from the gods.

>>69342779
While I agree with that I wasn't talking about the album. I was just calling Bowie by his persona.

I can't listen to prince because he took his music off YouTube

However Gene Ween loves him so I trust he's good

Where do I start

They're pretty much equal, had some great songs, maybe two enjoyable albums and a fuckload of praise despite the majority of their discographies never having been listened to by anyone

>>69342834
I think it means to go with Springsteen

>>69342350
How is that rude?

Ok. Assuming you're not trolling (highly unlikely) wouldn't Jay Z and Nas make more sense since they're the one with the big feud in the past?

"Followed the trends" is pretty much an accurate description of Bowie. Not saying he never innovated, or that he didn't create great albums within those trends, but he definitely followed these.

I'd say Bowie has more good albums than Prince, who only really had his 80's run + a couple random ones, and also that Bowie's discography is far more diverse. As for specific albums, I can't really decide between stuff like Heroes and Sign O', Aladdin and Purple Rain... These are all incredible. What I can say is that I feel more personally close to Prince's albums. Something about Bowie's work always felt cold.

>>69342350
But he's wrong

>>69343495
Rude.
