Definitely one of Prince's most controversial albums! Part 2 will be out in the coming weeks. Stay tuned. Toejam @ Peach & Black Podcast: http://peachandblack.podbean.com

Cool. Thanks. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Excellent! Heard it yesterday. Don't think I've ever caught one so soon after it dropped. Interesting comments. I think you dismissed the holocaust reference too lightly, but don't wanna open the worm- can here... I don't agree that P was lazy with the narrative - I think it's the opposite. It's over-construed if anything - he's creating a triple allegory. Buy you really need to be familiar with the Amarna period in Ancient Egypt to get it - which is a pretty obscure frame for a pop album, but hey!
As usual, you guys r great with the musical insights, pointing out details and interesting analogies. Keep it up- looking fwd to part 2 (or will this b like the Wotk...?) "We've never been able to pull off a funk number"

Nah. It's his most polarizing album. A lot of people here love it (though most confess to having to ignore the lyrics) and a lot (like me) find it mostly nauseating and charmless in its draconian righteousness. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.
