Official Websites of The Artist Formerly Known as Prince Get Some New Funk



NEW YORK--(ENTERTAINMENT WIRE)--April 27, 1999--While the Internet
continues to be an important resource of information and commerce for The
Artist Formerly Known As Prince, the Artist's own authorized websites both
resurfaced this month with a shiny new look and a series of fresh
enhancements and interactive features. Thanks to the hard work and devotion
of a dedicated collective, 1800NewFunk.com, the online retail outlet for NPG
and Paisley Park, and Love4OneAnother.com, the multifaceted information site
devoted to The Artist's works, recently evolved into two unique, eye-popping,
interactive playgrounds for the world's most prolific musician.



Though continually a work in progress, the Love4OneAnother site was
recently unveiled with great new improvements since its debut several years
ago. Specifically, the site has massively increased its functionality, adding
dazzling new graphics, enhanced interactivity, richer content and an overall
new appearance. This new look can be attributed to a dedicated collective
formed by Paisley Park representatives who invited all websites dedicated to
The Artist to join forces and work together. The basic idea was to forge a
strong team dedicated to "seeking the truth." And precisely, this collective
devotes themselves to providing authorized content relating to The Artist's
creations and activities as well as the philosophies behind Love4OneAnother.



As The Artist was one of the first musical artists to use the Internet
as a primary retail outlet, it's only natural that 1800newfunk.com represent
online commerce on a new level. In order to better meet the needs of a
growing base of technology-savvy customers, 1800NewFunk's renaissance
features a bold, sexy appearance, swirling images and slick lightening
graphics plus new, fast-acting purchasing features. The site has also added
exceptional items to their catalog of products which include unique
collector's items such as special issue vinyl releases and other music
rarities.



The online presence of Love4OneAnother.com and 1800newfunk.com is now a
powerful combination highlighting how a common love of art and shared
philosophy can help further the ongoing evolution of a unique artist in both
the physical and virtual dimensions of our modern society.

We invite you to check out the new 1800newfunk.com and Love4One
Another.com.
