Nice! Thanks for posting. The link didn't work for me, either.


It's not on the designer's site anymore either. So it could disappear from here shortly as well.


Daaang! Well, it was nice while it lasted. smile
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

Sounds great. Good thing they make a Target in Riverdale, Bronx.

I couldn't agree with you more! woot!
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

I remember getting that at a record shop in DFO


lol No way! DFO? eek

Do you remember how much you paid for it?

Somebody bought me a copy off the old 1800 New Funk site back in the day.


My fiance bought it for me. I can't remember the name of the shop - it used to advertise in 7 magazine hmmm It was around $170-180? (didn't have the kamasutra tape of course rolleyes ) I bought that and emancipation at the same time.

This is old news.
Target hardly ever advertises for music. Just clothes, cosmetics and home goods. The last Target commercial showcasing a music artist that I saw was for T.I and Justin.
Best Buy or independent distributorship would have been better. I think most people don't shop at Target for music but for home essentials and junk food. I think Prince knows this. cool

That's what i'm sayin'.

Now, mind you, I am a fan of AC/DC, but I think Wal*Mart played a big part in getting their first album in 8 years to Number 1 (and their first number 1 since 1995). As Desiree said, I don't think Target knows how to properly promote music (which, in retropect, makes a perfect match for Prince).

Some of the comments in here about the "availability" of Targets near them makes me laugh. Ya'll know you'd walk over hot coals or give up a kidney or your firstborn child to get a new P album when it drops. So don't even act like you wouldn't move heaven & earth to get it. Target releasing it just makes it easier for ya. lol
• Did you first think Prince was gay? •

Wendy: He’s a girl, for sure, but he’s not gay. He looked at me like a gay woman would look at another woman. Lisa: Totally. He’s like a fancy lesbian.

when do target ads normally appear on tv? in the daytime? night time? cause i know during the yankee games they don't show ads 4 target tease

You're kidding me right? I am not saying "music" in particular but in 2006, 2007 and 2008, how is it that you never saw a Target commercial? You don't remember when they had different colors with their trademark, like blue, green and other colors when they advertised for their store? Do you get their circulars? Because I get their circulars every week for the past 3 years.



if u knew what i watched u would understand lol ..the only tv i watch besides baseball, is law and order svu big grin or some of these "reality" shows on vh1 big grin falloff
man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81

I don't like this online booklet concept though. Why can't he just print up the booklet himself and include it with the album? I can understand if a band like The Roots can't afford to do it, cuz they're not as well known and maybe they're "on a tight budget" as they say, but come on....this is PRINCE we're dealing with here!

its nothing to print on a casing like that, so no its likely not a vinyl decal, its a case manufactured with a print directly on the case. not a sticker

Now all this talk of Target and the US distribution, is making me feel a little left out here in Australia.

This starting to become a real test for Prince in how he values his non-US fans. You would hope that he's entered into similar negotiations with retailers in other international markets.

Put it this way if either a) I have to get this thing online (i.e. Amazon etc..) or b) There is a significant lag time between the US release and physically being able to buy it in Australia, I will be 'CKING PISSED! mad

I hear ya...

Not sure about the Flip Cam?... Bcause on their websight U have the option 2 design Ur own (with Ur own image)... so it very well could B made/ordered like that (on top of it... it does have the Flip logo).

... However... if U look @ the Fone... U can sort of see the "lining" of the vinyl (decal) on it.
