Of all the choices for their debut album name and they choose Revalation? Also the album artwork is 🤢.

According to their Twitter avatar they may already be planning to change the album title.

Awful. Degrades Prince by its mere presence.

I'm amazed by the lack of reaction round these parts for this. Just hope they don't start giving them prince songs from the vault to do instead of releasing them as Prince recorded them. I wouldn't put anything past Tyka or the rest. They don't come across as the smartest people in the world.

—This is Omarr’s Project. What makes you think Tyka is up to something. Look at the older sibs and their foolishness.

So what is the point of this? And if they use PP recording facilities are they paying the estate for it? PRNFamily is Omarr not the estate.

I'm not saying Tyka is up to something, I'm saying from what family members are doing so far with this and the father project, and some of the interviews i have seen, its concerning to me that they will get full power to do with princes stuff whatever they want! Time will tell of course.

—-I think it will be a while before they take over and maybe if Comerica and Troy they will retain them. Will we see. We do know some parts of the WB deal they cannot undo so at least the soundtracks are safe.

I like the song featuring Marcus Anderson and I think Song for Pam with their drummer Vanessa Dominique sounds pretty nice but I'm disappointed with the rest. I feel they should have left Revelation alone as well.

This has nothing to do with Tyka. This is Omarr and Omarr only.

That's because they are un-informed.

I am underwhelmed...they couldn’t come up with their own band name and album title...just use Prince’s IP? What else r they going to take from him? I am side eyeing Marva because when I was checking out trademarks she applied for The New Power Generation trademark in January 2017 with purple and gold lettering (and abandoned in October 2017). Can’t figure out why she thought she would be entitled to a well known Prince trademark?

I don’t get why they would want to use a name so close to an already existing and touring name of another P linked band.

If only the family/estate spent as much time and energy trying to preserve Prince’s real musical legacy, instead of pure exploitation.

The font and style of "NPS" looks like it should be the logo for a carwash or something. feeling ill Yeggghhhh.

BUT WORST OF ALL, is if you head to their website and look at Marva's arm where her silver chain ends, it's chopped off and replaced by another arm that's not even lined up properly AT ALL!!!! WTF

OMG did not notice that! Wow this is who is going to carry on Prince’s legacy? And they are using Take Me With You as background music in the promo vid. No original thoughts from anyone surrounding this project. 😭

Apparently there is something on E-Bay about an offer to pay to have a private show with this band, meet sibs and have a private tour of Paisley Park.

I hope Omarr puts this sort of energy into getting the vault music out.

This showed up in a private Facebook group. I will go back and see if I can find it. It sicken me so I did not even click the link.

I understand that Omarr may need money as we know from the court docs he is renting his home from the estate but honestly this is just tacky. I almost wish he and the sibs got jobs out at Paisley Park.
