Prince released several hundred songs both under his own name and under pseudonyms and/or pen names, as well as writing songs which have been recorded by other artists. Estimates of the actual number of songs written by Prince (released and unreleased) range anywhere from 500 to well over 1,000. Prince sold over 130 million records worldwide.[1][2][3]

Prince accumulated five U.S. number-one singles and 15 worldwide #1 hits, as well as 8 worldwide number one albums. He was the most successful artist on the Billboard charts from 1980-2000, scoring 8 #1 R&B singles and 7 #1 Dance singles (tied for second place for male entertainers with Enrique Iglesias and Michael Jackson). He scored over 50 top 40 hits around the world since 1979. His most commercial period was from 1982's 1999 to 1996's Emancipation, though he maintained a loyal audience since and experienced a commercial resurgence with 2004's Musicology, paving the way for several successful albums to follow including his final, Hit n Run Phase Two, released in December 2015.
