Unknown to most, he was signed by Prince to be the lead singer of the group The Time but a disagreement with Prince led to Alexander leaving the group and eventually being replaced with Morris Day. He went on to have a tremendous solo career with three consecutive albums going Gold with the biggest being 1987′s ‘Hearsay.” In all Alexander O’Neal had a total of eight top 20 singles and still performs to this day.
