"Why is Prince criticized for his post-prime work more than any other Leg..."


  

          

Prince is a legend for what he dropped in the 80s. He had the midas touch that decade and dropped an enormous amount of material with few weak spots.

Since than he has continued to put out an enormous amount of material but the brilliant moments are few and far between with a lot of weak shit, some decent stuff but nothing on the calibre of his 80's tracks.
But why whenever he is brought up, there are those that will still say he ain't counted since 88.

Notice nobody says shit about Stevie, McCartney, Bowie, etc who also haven't done shit since their prime years. Just wonder why Prince gets the backlash he does on this site and others.
