The Minneapolis sound is a hybrid mixture of funk, rock, pop, R&B & new wave that was pioneered by Prince in the late 1970s. Its popularity was given a boost throughout the 1980s, thanks to his musical adherents, including The Time, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Morris Day, Vanity 6, Apollonia 6, Ta Mara & the Seen, Sheila E. , Jesse Johnson, Mazarati, & The Family. Prince's third album Dirty Mind from 1980 also earns credit.
