Is Prince releasing any more singles from Lotusflow3r or MPLSound? Dance 4 Me has great single potential if you ask me... is he planning on releasing any more singles from the album???
Not that I believe there's really any point in Prince releasing singles these days, but I just like seeing the videos.... [Edited 8/19/09 2:44am] | |

release any singles? To who and where? I'm curious, how does prince release singles and how do we find out about them? ESPECIALLY if I already have the CD that the single is on? Cuz I NEVER hear ANY of his new stuff on the radio. Back in the 20th century when you hear someone say "so and so released a new single" that usually meant you could catch it on the radio.
Is he releasing singles on his website? God I'm so confused when it comes to this dude anymore | |

I'm always intrigued as to why he bothers making music videos, particularly once the album has already dropped. I mean, he filmed videos for both Chelsea Rodgers and SHOE from Planet Earth... but what for? Has anybody seen it played on TV? | |

Somewhere Here On Earth plays on BET Jazz Channel (Soul Sessions is the show). They also run Fury pretty regularly. When ![]() ![]() ![]() | |

There has not been a physical single for in store purchase or a digital single for download. There has been speculation that "Dance 4 Me" would be released as a single overseas but that hasn't materialized yet. When ![]() ![]() ![]() | |

Oh I saw the Chelsea Rodgers one. I think I had to find that on metacafe or dialymotion or something. Can't remember

He made music videos for Chocolate Box and Crimson & Clover. That's not a single, that's a video. There was never a physical single released in stores or otherwise for either of those songs. | |

I think at this stage in Prince's career, making a video is what constitutes a track being given "single" status. [Edited 8/20/09 0:41am] | |

There is no real method to why Prince makes a video for a song. Albums he basically wasn't even behind still have videos for some of the songs on them(Chaos & Disorder, Come) while other songs that were extremely popular for him lack videos (Adore, She's Always In My Hair, 17 days). Then there were the unreleased tracks that got videos despite being unreleased. The video should be perceived as nothing more than a video. [Edited 8/20/09 19:01pm] When ![]() ![]() ![]() | |

Virgin Megastores are going broke. Tower Records went kaput. HMV came and went in the blink of an eye. Anywhere you can buy a CD now in america you can also swing over a few aisles and get diapers and Wheat Thins. These places can only sell the most popular artists due to lack of space. Singles are out of the question in most of them. When ![]() ![]() ![]() | |

He's not promoting the videos either. You promote a single, he ain't done much of anything. People had to pay to see them at first. They might be somewhere else on the web, but ain't no one diggin' for them. | |

Are any tracks on the aforementioned releasable (exceptions for the already released and even then I'm skeptical),
"Heeeeey Valentina"- HA! Frankly I think Bria Valente could make a ripple even slight in the soul scene with "Something U should know" - oh I don't care for the title! I didn't like the project period... 'dre Tried many flavours - but sooner or later, always go back to the Purple Kool-aid!

It's not what I think, it's just the way it is. Since Planet Earth onwards, the extent of Prince's so-called single releases hasn't ended up being a lot more than a video being shot and then shown randomly online... I can't remember the last time he released a physical format or had a new release getting airplay on radio stations. He just doesn't do that anymore. Deal with it. | |

Singles can be sent to radio stations to play but outside of downloading there is no retail outlet to buy. In addtion who the hell is sitting at home looking at fucking videos all day. I honestly think the org has been taken over by 12 year-olds. | |

Making a video does NOT mean a single. Get your head out of your ass. | |

I wasn't saying that it did. I was saying that a music video is pretty much all you're gonna get from Prince these days, as he doesn't seem to release singles anymore.
