Finally. This is a good foundation!

Interesting that the Carmen Electra album is missing.

Alrighty then.

I believe the most dedicated among the fanbase are, so far, "the COLLECTIVE, most authoritative source on all things Prince" so I hope they'll be open to our suggestions. We'll do it for free

~ Track listing for Crystal Ball album has the title track listed as "Crystal Bal".

a little bit hard to navigate with the 'eye' thingie and the site layout

but so so SOOOOOOO good to finally have all official albums named
and listed on an official site. and with soundclips as well!

now if only there were links to downloads or hard copies for purchase
but i guess they'll build up to that in the future.

This will keep me busy for a while.

This is a good start. Now that the Estate has a mission statement, let's hope they stick with it.

Brilliant move, great base to now expand from...is there a light at the end of the tunnel?

This is great, i love the as the mouse pointer, awesome!

Astounding.

Finally.


Website of the Year.







I'm freakin' jealous.


Love it beyond words.

Are you kidding? I love the EYE!

It's tablets first, obviously. Just kidding,
but the fonts size need a bit tweaking at some screen resolutions.
But nothing that a good CSS can't cure with time.

It's great. I'm not a big fan of the body font, the sans serif is not ideal.
But the whole "NC2U" teaser operation is up to the task,
the video will have me in tears one of these days,
yeah, great news.

Now give it time, a website with folks taking care of it is like a plant.
It's gonna be a heck of a tree, they better get them servers ready.

CUrious to see it in a few years.
Hopefully the guys from Princevault will chime in their content,
for the New Power users.

The Ultimate Prince Database, Baby!
They HAVE to hire OldFriends as one of the curators.
Don't be greedy, estatists.

They should put the website's shell on Github.
I'm sure there are fans out there who code,
not to mention yeswecode. It could turn into one heck of a site,
both in aesthetics and in music. The content is just pure bliss,
if the "minor" eras are documented to the bone, I'm sure lots
will rediscover stuff.

There's so much to tell, factually, historically, humanly, and data-number-crunching for your anal retentivity, that the mind boggles and I almost feel like Alan Moore's Swamp Thing growing back from the putrid desert that menaced.


Just the live section is destined to be a behemoth.
I hope the make it kind of open source, there are a bunch of very
vertically specialized sources on the web.
Don't play the dirty sheriffs, estatists.


Man I'm so glad we're not spending the Birthday all depressed and shit!
I'm so happy to see our Prince treated with the attentions he so well deserved.


Better sell those 24bit/192kHz outtakes, and apparently HD vinyls are now a thing.
Guys, let's spread the video as much as we can, first of all because it's Single Of The Year
on the spot, and second because it shows them working where the song was recorded.



Now that's fucking phenomenal, I would like to remind you that,
because too often some people's first reply is a criticism, and just that.



Damn, Christopher.

There are ads for the Hit-N-Run Store on instagram! I love that this website has new merchandise; it's a long time coming. Link: https://www.princehitnrun.com/store/

This site is pretty cool: https://prince2me.com

It's getting there. But it seems it forces you to sum up Prince in short sentences, reducing him to pure brand. It's a little too much. From the intro, I kinda hoped for a social network/forum, some sort of Org 2.0.

Hey, maybe the Org will beat the estate at that, you never know.

In terms of cultural discourse, analysis and impact, the Org still has the best content, given yearly backups have been made.

Some threads are pure genius, some are hilarious, like the one with all the Graffiti Bridge fake dialogs, I hope shit like this is not lost for ever in cyberspace.

Princevault and the Org may have old web 1.0 skins, but the content, so far, is theirs.

The most important albums are properly covered, but each calls for a complete multimedia section. They must have terabytes of stuff to clean, remaster.

Again, hats off to a fine start from the estate.
It's promising. Sad to see the fantastic imagery and iconography reduced at small roles in tweets.

Like, can't U formulate a phrase of Ur own?

It’s a start. Something is better than nothing. At least there’s an official site now that they can build off of. Now they need a store where you can buy and download albums and for godssake get 94-2013 music available on streaming music sites.

You're right, it's still a fine start.
It's like a super-charged Org's "all emoticons", fulled with gifs and shit.

I'm being picky, I'm grateful all the way.
The estate is finally up to its daunting task.

I applaud.

The disography website is simply awful!

Absolutely shocking and unnavigable.

The best method is to scroll either on a mobile or to shrink your browser down to a mobile size.
