DJBigdavidApr 2, 2009Prince lets his guitar sing on one of the very best albums of his entire career. This is a thrilling blend of rock-pop-funk that only he could create. An essential album of 2009.

DavidSApr 1, 2009"LotusFlow3r" is an instant classic. Prince's best and most enthralling album since "Sign O' The Times."

TheCATApr 2, 2009okay, i have to admit Prince is the best musician out there by far. Even the stuff i don't like a whole lot on the 3 disc shows that he is a genius and there are not many tracks that i don't like maybe 2 on the entire body of albums. MPLSound is my personal favorite but my girlfriend is really into the entire Elixr album she is becoming a huge Prince fan because of this album

KaranSApr 16, 2009Musically there's not much of a connection between songs although there are some beautiful moments in the album. I truly believe that's what he was going for but vocally he's downgrading from previous albums. All in all this is a great album and there are tons of things to learn if you are an aspiring musician.

BrandonSApr 1, 2009LotusFlow3r is the best disc of the three and definitely my favorite of Prince's modern era. My face is melting from all those amazing solos! The MPLSound is cool, too, with an 80s-era Prince vibe. I haven't even listed to the disc from his protege yet. Too bad that third disc isn't more pure Prince.

LotusFlow3r is perhaps the most palatable of the three albums, a guitar-driven collection of rockers and slow jams. There's a lot to like here....Still, they can't save the album from its turkeys.
-
The set's signature disc Lotusflow3r, is its most consistently enjoyable, a far-flung cornucopia of electric guitar licks from one of the instrument's sharpest practitioners.
-
LotusFlow3r is the work of a musician who's still curious after all these years.
