Would Prince have been just as succesful if he kept his “black” look.

Compared to his well known racially ambiguous look

I remember as a kid I genuinely didn’t know what race he was. I thought he was some kind of white/Latin mixture and I’m guessing this racially ambiguity probably helped him cross over:mjpls:.

Everyone was dressed like that in the 1980s, HAIR metal bands like Motley crue, warrant, bon jovi, poison and black musicians like the DeBarges were dressed andrygynous.
De barge was always racially ambiguous though.
