Prince: My Name Is
About
Overview
He did not grow up in a palace, yet Prince Rogers Nelson was born with a regal name. Other labels like the Love Symbol, His Royal Badness, Joey Coco, Jamie Starr, Skipper and The Artist Formerly Known as Prince would belong to him during his 57 years. Overcoming epilepsy, he wrote the first of 600 songs at only age 7 and played in his own "Grand Central" band at 13. A small 5'2" frame did not keep him from becoming a basketball star in high school.
