I didn't check all his albums, but if he did one alone...which one?

I don't believe any one major has ever really done the DIY thing.
"Prince" (self-titled from '79) says "All songs written by Prince" and "Produced, Arranged, Composed and Performed by Prince". Other credits include Gary Brandt - Engineer and Bernie Grundman - Mastering. So, you're right, he's not doing everything, but an impressive amount of things very well, nonetheless.
