Brad Wheeler of The Globe and Mail (Canadian newspaper) labels "Colonized Mind" an "essential track"

Essential tracks
BRAD WHEELER

COLONIZED MIND by Prince, from the forthcoming LOtUSFLOW3R (lotusflow3r.com).

Graceful psychedelic soul from the mononymous one, who sing-speaks of the two-party system's "illusion of choice" and the disenfranchisement of the controllable classes. Forget red states and blue states - let's go purple.

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
