“Everything ’92 and before is perfection”: Producer and songwriter Benny Blanco reveals that Prince is his “favourite artist of all time”, but also explains why he wouldn’t want to work with him if he was still alive

Benny Blanco.

Prince might be his “favourite artist of all time”, but producer and songwriter Benny Blanco has been telling Howard Stern why he wouldn’t want to work with him if he was still alive.

“Everything ’92 and before is perfection,” said Blanco of Prince’s output. “Prince felt so childish but complex… There’s a certain innocence to everything he does… He was the entire package. He made the song, he wrote the song, he produced the song, he would mix the songs - he was everything.”
