"Prince Charles and the City Beat Band" recorded 3 albums [Gang War (1981)/ Stone Killers (1982)/ Combat Zone (1984)]. 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.

With the emergence of rap as the dominant reflection of street culture and the absence of success, Prince Charles disbanded his group and began focusing on audio engineering .

"Prince Charles Alexander" has become mixing engineer for a large client base [Mary J. Blige, Destiny's Child, Faith Evans, Boyz II Men, Joe, Puff Daddy, Notorious B.I.G., etc.].
