Prince - Purple Rain vs. Stevie Wonder - Innervisions

Love both albums, but a pretty clear choice.

Michael Jackson - Off the Wall vs. Parliament - Mothership Connection

P-Funk don't get a lot of love here, but I hope they can pull this off. Easy choice here.

Erykah Badu - Baduizm vs. Stevie Wonder - Fulfillingness’ First Finale

Not really a fan of Erykah, so one of the merely good Stevie albums is more than enough to win.

Stevie Wonder - Superstition vs. Michael Jackson - Billie Jean

VERY tough choice, and I might make a different choice on a different day.

Prince - When Doves Cry vs. Four Tops - Reach Out I'll Be There

I like "Reach Out (I'll Be There)" a lot, but "When Doves Cry" is just killer.

Prince - 1999 vs. Janelle Monae - Tightrope

I LOVE Janelle, but this is Prince's best single.

Sly and the Family Stone - Thank You (Falletimme Be Mice Elf Agin) vs. Michael Jackson - Man in the Mirror

Maybe my favorite Sly song, but I haven't heard any songs of theirs that I unquestionably love.
