Prince Charles Alexander has an M.S. from Northeastern University and a B.A. from Brandeis University. He is also a graduate of the prestigious Boston Latin School, the first public high school in America (1635). "Prince Charles and the City Beat Band" recorded three albums on Virgin Records from the early to mid 80's, and achieved their biggest successes on the European charts

Charles fronted the group as the lead singer and multi instrumentalist. The futuristic wind synthesizer called the "Lyricon" was the instrument that made his brand of next generation p-funk unique, and the group's sound incorporated many of the devices that would propel rap music to the forefront of the American music scene.
