Why no talk show date announcements. Doesn't make sense

He did Rosie years ago as well as Arsenio where he sat on the couch even though awkwardly enough. He needs to sit there with Letterman Fallon or Kimmel if not all three and seem a little more relate able.The days of the mystery and intrigue in absentia are over. The only one who ever pulled that off was Greta Garbo. And she didn't have two albums to push. I'm sure they'll agree to soft ball questions the same way Arsenio did.

Yea, I'm kinda blown away by this myself. Releasing "singles" isn't gonna cut it, when they get no airplay. PRINCE and WB have dropped the ball on this one.

On a side note another post pleaded to repeat a long justation period between albums next time around being that this is his best work in twenty years. If that's really the case then it is a true shame he isnt playing the game anymore. And get a proper promotion parade in high gear. The music world desperately needs a third big Prince comeback the way a rabbit needs to get blanked pardon my French.

Kendrick Lamaar, Arcade fire ,AWOL nation ,and Lana del rey are all supremely talented musicians but they pale in comparison to how Prince can suck you into his weird wonderful world. Get rid of the fro and come back to us bro. Start looking regal again.

There won't be any promotion for the albumS. Get over it.

Tv performances under WB? Are you mad ? Maybe for Purple Rain, if Prince want to play the game. But he surely won't. If he does, he will sing SCREWDRIVER in order to promote PR, we all know that. It will be more of "You're my driver and I screwed you", though.

He fucked WB again, he won his masters, he had his revenge. End of the story. Prince is always getting the last laugh in every contract, that's not new. He already fucked Arista and Clive Davis, and he fucked Universal with 3121 because he didn't want to tour under them

He doesn't need WB neither to tour again and make millions, so why would he bother with them?

Terrifically insightful response. You nailed it. Prince is just a dick when it comes to Record companies and being told what to do by a bunch of old or should I say older guys who he views as parasites. Still before you know it he will really start looking his age and no one will care anymore even by the apathy that's aparrent towards him nowadays.
