The calm before...

Wouldn’t it be something if his next released recording was so deeply personal that it could make "The Truth" blush? An album recorded solo on the floor of a darkened Paisley Park studio -- so raw, so real, so untouched as to completely remove his option of plausible deniability.

I’m clueless as to where he might be headed. I mean even more clueless than normal. And that ain't easy.

The last few years seem to have him slowly traveling down a path that leads away from religious fundamentalism. Will he continue down that path or will he wander into the wilderness for a few years and show up out of no where with the follow-up to "The Rainbow Children"?

The only thing I’ve heard from him musically that was likely written this year was that clip at his now-defunct music club, and that didn’t exactly strike me as an emotional rainstorm; or even that much of a change in direction.

Whatever he’s brewing, I’ll be here to take a sip when it’s served.

Don't Hold Your Breath.
News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so.

As I've said many times before, when Prince disappears for a few months everybody starts thinking he must be working on something unusually big and creative. But more often than not, he just comes out with your usual everyday album. There were 2 years between Musicology and 3121, there were rumours flying around that there was more to the project than just an album, that perhaps there was a tie-in with a film project, but it came to nothing, and now I'm hearing the same rumours about Prince's next project...

OH HAVENT U HEARD????? HE GUNNA LOW FLY IN A UFO OVER EVERY MAJOR CITY LASERBEAMING TUNES INTO PEOPLES HEADS. AND WHEN THEY WAKE UP NEXT DAY THEY ALL BE OBOISTS CRYING "I WAS ABDUCTED BY A PURPLE SHREK STAR TREK FUNK JUNKIE WHO MESSED WITH MY HEAD AND NOW IM PREGNANT WITH HIS VAULT. IMMA CALL THE KID SNAPSHOT JO. TAKE A PICTURE SWEETY I AINT GOT TIME TO WAIT" THEN THEY ALL HOOK UP WITH CHRISTOPHER WALKIN FOR A NCE COMMUNION UNDER THE STARS THEY NOW HEAR IN THEIR HEADS BEEPIN TONES THAT CONTROL EM..."SLAVE SLAVE"..LOL...AND THE LASERBEAM TUNES CANT B DETECTED BY THE CHART KEEPERS CUZ THEY'Z OFF THE RADAR, SO PRINCE WILL BECOME AN INCENSE BURNIN ALIEN LOOKIN FOR A SHRED OF COMMON SENSE WHILE HE DOWNLOADS EVERYONES BRAINS TO SEE IF HE CAN FIND ANY GOOD ENOUGH TO MATCH HIS BEAUTIFUL ALIEN HEART.....AND THE ALBUM WILL B A HIT SUBCONSCIOUSLY.

Right he could be chillin right now thinkin up some more lyrics like "to the meek at heart these words might sound like sinner's but the truth is that u're sitting on everyone of u're dinners." Oh puhleeze Prince no more lines like these. Also it looks like he's just taking some time off to chill with the stars, hit up the clubs, take in the sights and convort with young ladies. Have fun P! Enjoy yourself! Its a celebration! Just don't come back with no crap.
I'm an org elitist... totally unapproachable.
