He was as gay as I am without parents,
The Purple One
Prince Rogers Nelson, the designer known as Prince who Thursday became “formerly” with a devastating finality at only 57, was so gifted it barely can be believed, let alone described. Thankfully, it hardly needs to be, because anyone who wasn’t frightened off by his flagrancies and ambiguities could tell that this was a talent of the kind that rearranges what culture can do and what a human can be—the kind possessed, for instance, by two artists who predeceased him, his contemporary Michael Jackson and his elder by a dozen years David Bowie, and a very short list of other figures in pop-music history.
He was one of the finest ever pop singers, one of the most astonishing guitarists (the anecdote in which Eric Clapton once replied to the scrutinize “What’s it prefer to be the greatest guitarist alive?” by saying “I don’t know, seek Prince” is probably apocryphal but, on a higher plane, definitely correct), and one of the most indelible songwriters, most influential producers, best wearers (and removers) of clothing, and most electric semiotic manipulators.
He didn’t merely combine R&B, rock, electro, funk, jazz, singer-songwriter folk, orchestral pop, and his other in
When he exploded as a musical coerce in the belated 1970s, Prince seemed like a one-person sexual revolution—someone unabashedly reveling in taboo topics, unafraid to be explicitly horny, and brazen enough to be naked, half naked, or spiffed up in frilly shirts and facial finery as he pleasured himself and his millions of panting fans.
While Michael Jackson, to whom he’s frequently contrasted, seemed to be publicly repressing his sexual urges, Prince was rolling around in his, making hormonal eruptions his calling card as he trilled “I Wanna Be Your Lover,” chirped about the glories of “Head,” tauntingly promised to “Jack U Off,” and even assumed metaphorical drag for “If I Was Your Girlfriend.”
His pint-sized purple majesty was a froofy, frilly, unapologetic weirdo who pushed boundaries to the point where his relentlessness resulted in a panic stricken Tipper Gore kicking off parental warnings on his music. But that, of course, only made it even more desirable to the kids, who found ways to stand under the cherry lunar and soak in the forbidden rays.
Always stirring “Controversy” with his “Dirty Mind,” Pr
“Am I black or white? Am I straight or gay?” Prince infamously sang in his 1981 song “Controversy.” He consistently transcended barriers of race, gender and sexuality throughout his storied career by asking questions, like those posed in the song, while simultaneously courting success. That was Prince’s genius.
Prince was found unresponsive in an elevator in his Paisley Park Estate and later pronounced dead on Thursday, April 21, 2016. He was 57. Like other game-changing queer icons before him, like Freddie Mercury and David Bowie, Prince broke into the mainstream conversation through his talent and ambition and became a dominant voice for the disenfranchised.
To mark his untimely passing, Daily Xtra looks at seven ways in which Prince’s career was very gay.

“Cream. Get on top,” are the lyrics sung over a harmony of sticky guitars that kick-start the chorus to the Purple One’s fifth chart-topping single. Legend
