Hopefully good.

Prince.

But, if i were to elaborate, new sounds. Sounds we haven't heard before.

Repeating the past is the last thing i want. The title track 3121 is one of the most unique things he's done recently, it was like a whole new funk sound. The album may take a 180° turn after that, but that track along with Black Sweat were, especially the former, what i call "new sounds" (at least in funk), something unique and innovative.

How i wish the album carried on in that way, it would of been something special instead of a good and diverse pop album (which was his aim with that album i guess).

So yeah, new sounds overall and that should tie into just one word - Prince.

However, i do enjoy his more "by-the-numbers" releases as well.

Instrumental.

I want it to sound like a masterpiece

Real music from real musicians, please.

He keeps banging on about it, but apart from bits of Lotu$flow£r, he's been synthing it all the way for years.

New Power Trio or John Blackwell on drums is a good place to start.

From the choices i'd go for the paisley funk sound. I would go for funky pop, i want melodies and hooks, i want guitar solo's, synth solo's and sax solo's. I want the album to be full of energy, i want Camille and i want it only to have one ballad unless it has more than 10 tracks,which I don't want it to have. I want to sound like he made it in 1987.

Ooh oooh, and can I have this as a backup request?

I would like for it to embrace heavily his religous faith.

Since his lyrics writing has gotten so lazy, I agree.

Let's not give up on his lyrics. He just needs to express himself more about chem trails, the economy, politics, and his religous faith.

Crystal Ball Part II

Inspired and ballsy...that's all!

I want Andy Allo to rap about sesame street in the middle of all his songs.

Mplsound Revolution style of 1984

Pyschedlic pop album

Paisley funk circa 1986/87

Heavy bombasic funk of the npg 1993/95

Like a long lost Hendrix album

Modern electronica thing

Retro 1970's funk soul ala The Rainbow Children

acoustic

modern RnB vibe aiming for the charts.

So tell me how you want it too sound and then how you think it will sound.

Good.

That said, let's have 1 of these 4 please.

If it's going to have a modern sound, it'd be cool if it was a little different from a generic pop, rock, or R&B album. Therefore, electronica would be cool IF IT IS DONE WELL, which means working with several really good electronica producers/programmers.

If it's retro, then let's do REAL MUSIC BY REAL MUSICIANS, which leads me to Hendrix or 70s funk soul. Plenty of good guitar solos & keys would be great.

And I'm always down for another Prince acoustic album, either guitar or piano based.

undeniably mindblowing

nothing less will do .. too much total crap .. he owes us a good one

...And if you wish REALLY hard Carrie, there's a good chance that one might come true.

1999 part 2

Like Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber in bed 6AM, looking at each other shame-faced and lost for words after a night of drunken shit-faced flacid non-sex after some awards party, and unbeknown to them, Madonna is spying on them through a cut-out eye in a painting of Nicki Minaj dressed in drag as Michael Jackson on the wall opposite the bed.

So basically, MPLSound pt.2

That's what you want or that's what you expect?

That would be the perfect move for Prince. Also, he can bring Cat back into the scene to rap along with Dougie Fresh and I would be in heaven if Larry Graham is included in the project as a whole.

Uhh, I'll be happy if it's like the last one. Seriously.

Raw, uncut funk, THE BOMB!
