Hey...If the Org hates it that means the rest of the non obsessed Prince fans will dig it...

Judging by the positive reaction from social media (Twitter, Facebook, ect...) it's always interesting to see what the everyday world thinks outside of the Org bubble....

exactly, his dad was a jazz musician...but W&L introduced him to MIles,,, GTFOH

Exactly. W&L 'supposedly' introducing Prince to Miles, doesn't validate that he had no knowledge of jazz prior to familiarizing himself with Miles' music, so that orger can GTFOHWTBS. It's almost like some fans want to give W&L credit for all of Prince's music skills, as though he can't function musically without them. Next thing you know they'll be saying Prince was born from W&L's womb. [Edited 9/2/14 9:44am]

First read my reply before you GTFOHWTBS...

U Know is now #31 on the iTunes US singles top 100. http://www.doipod.com/itu...s-usa.html

Not to mention the no. 1 R&B song on Itune: http://www.dealnay.com/10...rince.html

nothing to read but BS..

Wow,"U Know" is an abominable piece of garbage. He should've relegated this one to the Vault.

Awesome song. Love it. Tried to resist listening to it so the album would remain fresh but caved after finding it out it was being played on BBC radio and has entered the UK top 40.

Contemporary yet credible. His falsetto sounds great over the beat and the auto-tone/vocoder is only used for the first verse.

This has serious potential. Great track.

The entire groove of "Gett Off" is a looped sample directly lifted from EnVogue's "Hold On".

.

Hmmm...

[Edited 9/2/14 8:10am]

This one is the square root of "Never Gonna Get It"!

Which all originates back to J.B.!

Everybody sample!

And just to mention the unmentioned thus far, how many times has Prince sampled his own stuff?

I still like the song at hand, i wish i could play it louder but the neigbors have headaches!

I liked it from the first listen and like it even more today its a song that get stuck in the head

Can honestly say that I've been pleasantly suprised by all the tracks previewed over the last week or so. Love the whole vibe of this one. I haven't been overly impressed with Prince's rnb output for a while but this ticks all the boxes for me, laid back, slinky and just a bit sexy. Love it!

ok, then,,log off and go home you are not needed here since they suck sooo bad.. I mean i wish i would spend the time talking about something that sucks so bad and in which i have no financial stake in,, i would just go somewhere that i liked..u the fool wasting your time on here and its rubbish and thinking Prince is a has been relic;

[Edited 9/2/14 12:00pm]

The AOA albums sounds like it'll be one of his better received albums in the US urban markets. Im not really an R&B head but I think it sounds pretty nice. Different sound for him.

Whenever embraces his RnB roots, which is how he basically got started, with his very first two albums 35 YEARS AGO! The sharks come out in droves here, to tear him completely APART...

"...surprise, surprise.

...a little treat of a trick.

...this is sweet.

...which one's which?"

.

Does Prince say this after the "put your hands together..." bit at the front?

I think he knows exactly what he's doing.

Great song.

Prost!

This is COME ON from New Power Soul. Come on came out in 1998.

This is 16 years later. If he would've hung on for 4 more years, U KNOW could perfectly be released as a tribute to the 20th anniversary of COME ON New Power Soul Deluxe edition!!!! yay

I'm a bit surprised that this sampling issue is so relevant to so many people on here.

Sampling is a huge issue since Prince makes such a big deal about everyone else doing it and then turns around and does it himself.

I'm excited.

It's so dramatic!

Prince not for sampliing and autotune, and whatever else people bring up.

And then he does it himself!

It's kinda Prince's style to be this Joker in the music industry, flipping things around.

He's a true funk soldier, real music, real musicians...and sampling and groove copy cutting on the side.

Gotta love it!!
