Is it me or is Prince looking a little bit like he's taking hat advice from Magneto in that photo?

Hey Dave...
Don't worry. He is suppose to be in works with a major retailer as well, so you can purchase it physically from that retailer, OR online...
Just do not know who the retailer is yet.

As I said before (dunno whether it was this thread) we don't have anything like Walmart and all that over here in Europe, so the only possibility of getting a physical CD would be ordering it at amazon or something, right?

Still I liked the days when I got up early on a Saturday morning to get the CD as soon as possible...

Ahhh, I see your dilemma! Tell you what...If by chance you cannot order it off of amazon, for some reason, even though it will take longer...Just let me know, I will do my best to mail you a copy(An original copy bought from a retailer). Just orgnote me...
Of course, it will still take longer than u being able to go get it, but I do not mind helping out for u to get a physical copy...

yeah i don't understand why people had so many problems with the
npgmc files. i burnt them to cd the day i downloaded them. each
month at the beginning and per cd in the second year.

can't remember exactly how it all worked but when my pc crashed
once the site was off the air i just uploaded those cd's i had
burnt and now i can play all those files on my pc, no drm at all.

i think mplsmike misunderstood your post and thought you were
offering to share the downloaded files instead of offering to
send an actual physical store bought copy of the album.

U can see the artwork is deep and symbolic and I love the colours.


Oh please. "Deep and symbolic." You need a reference point for something to be 'deep and symbolic' and not just a masturbatory hodge-podge of images dedicated to your own ego which is all the site is. Just because there are empty, cliche' laden symbols like pyramids doesn't mean you're going to discover the secrets to the universe, I don't care how many of you count all the different shades of blue and subtract them from the number of half circles on the left hand side of the gaudy image.

I have no doubt the second part of your statement is true however and is the prime reason so many here are dazzled by the so called design.


so... would it be possible to ask which is your favourite Prince album cover? and the reason why...

What label is Beyonce on? Who pays her bills? If Prince is doing his own thing and paying his own cash...


Prince is poor now? I thought he was #1 at the bank?

Why do Prince fans always make up the lamest excuses? Well, at least you're admitting it's a cheap-looking site.


I am. so what?

A multi-billion dollar record company can afford to pay whoever they want to produce a visually fantastic site. If Prince is paying out of his own pocket, and he'll be using his own circle of contacts, we get what we get... I couldn't give 2 turds if it was a text only site as long as the output we receive is of a good enough quality. Until the site truly opens and we get what there is why such negativity about the design? Prince likes it... that's good enough for him... same as it always has been/always will be...

Well that image is as equally terrible as anything found in the Emancipation booklet. razz


Yeah, that's what I thought. "Oh, it's like Emancipation, but purple instead of orange! Maybe the music will be like Emancipation, but good instead of bad! biggrin "

(j/k, I like Emancipation wink )

It's over-the-top in that cheezy princey way, but I prefer it to the typical corporate band site. Assuming it gets more content at some point.

And people with Macs pretty much had to do all that - since getting the files downloaded and then getting them to play was such a pain in the zipped

Here's hoping the new music is compatible for all!

Thank U Prince... been waiting 4 this... Prince is a true artist... original, and I love the journey he takes us on... I have been a fan since '78 and it's been 1 heck of a funky ride. The new website looks cool and I don't think we've even seen the best of Prince yet! All other "so-called artists"... it's time 2 check yo' jock straps! lol cool

Yeah, I don't mind the cheesiness since we've come to expect it from Prince by this point. He's had this type of gaudish, digitalized visuals accompany his output for about half of his career. Even before that the cover art of "Graffiti Bridge" wasn't that far removed from these type of visuals. He is on some late-60s / early-90s trip musically at the moment, so the crass mixing of hippie / mystical imagery is probably quite fitting in the end (the album is going to be called "Lotus Flower" after all). The real problem with this specific image, as far as the iverall composition goes - and should it end up as an album cover eventually - is just that his face in the middle with the eyes not showing doesn't work at all visually.

... and that electric / liquid -whatever thing looks like he is being jizzed on his head by Odin down from the skies. Hey, it's supposed to be "deep multi-cultural symbolism", so I am allowed to interpret it any way I want to. Cause "that's the way art works", right? wink

I thought the same thing. Like what was said, how could you get stuff like music, DRM or not, and not back it up to a CD? I just don't understand that.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that
