Belize

Anyone heard this? Belize was a Paisley Park act that was scheduled to release an album in 1993. I just saw an in-house cassette for sale on madhousemusic, didn't know anything was ever released or leaked. Very curious about this one. I doubt Prince had any musical input, but am not 100% sure.
Anyone?

As far as I know Belize was an act signed to Paisley Park, but the label dissolved before anything materialized. Perhaps the cassette is a pre-Paisley Park demo.

Well, I was surprised to see this cassette, definitely a Paisley Park project, dated December 15, 1993. Go see it here - http://www.madhousemusic.co.uk/main.htm
It's listed under "special items", the eight item down. I remember hearing that this ws coming up way back when, but I too didn't know anything had become of it. Wonder what it's like...
Soemone shell out $400 to buy it and tell us! biggrin

Maybe the cats from Madhouse Music can 'splain. Looks like the album was indeed finished at least.

there's no Prince input on this, and the album is pretty bad

Yeah,Belize was a Paisley Park act that never got to release their album because the label shut down in early 1994.Rosie Gaines and Tyler Collins also had new albums all set for release and then cancelled.
