Prince

Received this 33 years ago from someone who knew his personal assistant. Want to believe it's real, but will differ to the community.

Thank you.

Tough one as the LOVE GOD looks different than others I've seen. Some of the PRINCE I like but it's not a slam dunk. Get some more opinions on this one but I'm leaning towards "no"

I had an early album cover (mid 80s) with a Prince signature. The "Prince" itself looked very close to this one, though I'm not sure if the one I had was authentic.

I changed your discussion to the Prince forum. It was fine where it was but you may get more action here.

It's hard for me to see everything clearly on it, but "Prince" does not have the typical R and N, which was very consistent in that style of autograph.

"God" is quite a bit different, too. Prince's G was similar to the G you see on General Mills cereal boxes.

If you got it from someone who knew his personal assistant, I'd say it's likely that it's secretarial: signed by the assistant.
