A lot of people don't know that he was the original singer of the time before Prince fired him. That was a blessing cuz he was bigger by himself
@allanasmith3347 ай бұрын
I'm his biggest fan so I am ware of that history. But Alex is too good to be any bands front man. He has the gift of a solo artist and yes I agree him bring fired by Prince was the best thing that happened to his career.
@tammybaldwin39686 ай бұрын
I totally agree. Prince did not deserve to have him. Ive been listening to Alex since his first album....This song is beautiful in its entirety. God Bless Alexander. Respectfully from the 🇺🇸

Alexander O'Neal was NEVER the lead singer of The Time. He was the lead singer of Flyte Tyme a totally different band. Prince created The Time for Morris Day because of the song Party UP which was given to him on The Dirty Mind album by Morris. Literally speaking, Prince is The Time. The first Hit "Get It Up" was just Morris Day on lead and Prince on background vocals and playing every instrument.
