Love Symbol is Prince's fourteenth studio album, released on October 13, 1992. The album's title is an unpronounceable symbol that Prince adopted as his stage name between 1993 and 2000, known as the 'Love Symbol'. Musically, the album explores funk, pop, rock, and new jack swing, with lyrics addressing love, sex, and spirituality.
The recording took place primarily at Paisley Park, with additional sessions in London. Prince collaborated with his band New Power Generation, as well as guests like Tony M. and Mayte. The lead single 'My Name Is Prince' was a moderate hit, while 'Sexy MF' and '7' also gained traction. The album debuted at number 5 on the Billboard 200 chart.
The album received mixed reviews upon release, though it has been positively reassessed over time. It is notable as Prince's last album with Warner Bros. before his famous contractual dispute, which led him to change his name to the symbol. It has sold approximately 1.5 million copies in the United States.
