If you have an ipad, download the Billboard magazine app. The issue with the interview is available and free, at least it was for me.

I think I like this new Prince phase. lawd

@ all of this

I think it's a gorgeous shot, so much so that I've already pre-ordered two copies :-3

A big thing for me is that he's gotten rid of those bloody turtle-necks he's been wearing for the past year with the wacked out designs & he's back into his sexy attire

Well maybe it's because he's on the cover of a magazine but still, I also don't even mind those glasses (if that's what you call them) anymore. They look more funky than anything else

He honestly looks fucking great, judging from the cover my fingers are permanently crossed for a photo-shoot on the inside pages

those glasses always cause such outrage on here! bet he wears them cuz he knows lots folk don't like 'em!! I don't mind them, but would far rather see his beautiful eyes Why has he been hiding them lately? Does he not want us to see in or does he not want to see out, like a protection thing? Apart from the shade covering his loveliness, it's a great photo. His hair looks good & his skin is yummy as always! Funny, 3rdeyegirl says he's tryna look innocent! Lol What's he been up to then?!

He might have had some work on his face done, in preparation of his 2013 comeback?

PS: I like the cover, I have grown accustomed to the mask!

OMG, I just clicked this thread again, and all these belly-aching laughter-inducing emotions came instantly bubbling up again.

OMG, I want him to wear silly hats to go with those shades. I NEED prince to be freaky again. That shit would entertain me endlessly.

cover is fresh!

It's a nice photo. Even a bit iconic ("idolic"?).

I don't like the "glasses", but they don't ruin the image. At least they make it seem more unique.

so... not everyone has an Ipad. does anyone want to post the interview? i'd love to read what he has to say....

i love the cover, it's a great pic. would be perfect if he didn't wear those glasses so we could see his eyes!

Yeah, if someone would be willing to post this, would be much appreciated! It might not be allowed though, by forum rules.

why not? that rule is only for audio/video material so far i know.

This must be the FIRST time EVER I didn't want to break my ass out to a store and retrieve a mag my Prince graced. I cannot stand those glasses.....what in the world made him gravitate to them. He must be getting some work done around those eyes and lord knows he doesn't need to......but I must say I'm glad he's not standing there with his hands in some funny kind of pose like I have on some of my other magazine covers

On a positive note....Prince is getting some press and I'm always glad to see it's a positive one despite my horror when opening up this topic on the org.

i really like the pic. those glasses kind of give way to a blindfold vibe.. i like very much

for people with no ipad... you can read the interview here!

good read so far, i'll have to cop that ASAP to finish.

SO, despite earlier rumours of a listening party happening today for a new album, Dco funk followed up with this.... (I'm gutted if it's true)

DR. FUNKENBERRY'S CELEBRITY NEWS FAN PAGE I think new "tracks" were played. In Billboard's interview with PRINCE, he states he longer makes albums but jams n will release them for a price the fans agree on. More from the interview when we have the full copy/story....

The Purple One looks beautiful.

That would be terrible news, if true.

Mp3s are simply not worth buying.
