There is a big ad for AOA in this month mojo magazine

A.O.A. & P.E.will make yet again! The darling of next year's Grammy's, with the collection of yet ANOTHER set of Grammy's 2 add to his MEGA award shelve @ Paisley Park...

PR will surely be announced tomorrow.

If I didn't come to the org I wouldn't know these albums had released in the UK today. Normally friends or family let me know there's a new Prince album, even when I've already had them ordered for a month. But there's been not a peep from anyone. Either everyone finally hates me enough not to bother or there's a distinct lack of advertising.

Think maybe after tomorrow the albums might get some airplay? Hope so anyway... Time will tell I suppose. At leat we get a show of sorts tomorrow night

Finally, Prince is in the UK media!!! In todays Metro no less, read by millions of commuters. Pics from the iPad edition:

Ok, so it's not an advert and they think the album is still, 'set to be released'. But it's a start right? And to think, we were starting to believe that there would be nothing about the releases in the media.

SO I guess at this point we should expect absolutely zero airplay?

Yesterday I went to Wal-Mart and I went straight to the music section. Once I got there I saw that on the new release section there was no Prince album or 3rdEyeGirl album. I then went to the Prince section and I see 4 copies (2 of AOA and 2 of Plectrumelectrum) on there. I'm like 'ohhhhh noooo...you all are at the wrong place" and I put them on the new release section, covering 4 albums that I didn't think were worth seeing so the people walking by would be like 'new Prince music huh?'.

Good work!!!

Sounds like something Eye would do or done....

...And still no news from the re-release of PR. What a waste, this poor timing. i'm pretty sure Wb has no hand on things such as obliging Prince to shoot a new video or to perform any song. They don't have interest to spend money on that, because they don't own the masters.

If the artist doesn't to promote anything related to the albums, they can't do anything, except play a record on the radio. But they must have been disgusted by the strange behaviour of Prince.

Remember when I predicted that past the third week, the albums wouldn't be in the top 40 anymore ?
