Prince carved a new identity for himself on his third release, "Dirty Mind" This album was so racy that promotional copies sent to radio stations warned program directors to audition the songs before putting them on the air (in a time before Parental Advisory labels). Dirty Mind is a combination of erotic wordplay and clean, simple melodies. Comedian Ali Siddiq joined Episode 206 to talk about the influence Prince had on him in carving his own path towards becoming a comedian.
