"3rd Eye Girl said fans would get to hear the album "hopefully soon", but details of the release were still being worked out."

Translation: this is yet another brainfart, we've still gotta ask WBR about this, by announcing this now we're trying to shame them into releasing this pile of junk we couldn't even be arsed to think up a good title for.

I knew it, I knew it, I knew it!!! Bart never lets us down!! hug



Prince could cure cancer and Bart would find something to complain about that. I can see it now - "Just like Prince to put thousands of oncologists and radiologists out of work. What a wanker." LOL.

If HardRockLover and The X's FAce are any indication of the new sound, I'm all on board. I liked AOA and PE a lot and the new stuff seems to be expanding on the basic structure of the sound. Joshua being on board is a huge plus.

Looking forward to it.

Bearing in mind they spent a year and a half talking about Plectrum Electrum before it came out, if something very solid isn't announced in the next week I'd forget it.

The whole Hit and Run concept suggests to me that this new album could be released anytime. An hour from now, a week, a month, whenever. There may be very little warning, if any. Unfortunately, that also suggests that this album might be digital only. At least initially. I hope I'm wrong about that last part because I'm fairly new to Prince's music and this would be the first newly released album of his I would buy. And I'd much prefer to go into a shop and buy a physical copy on CD. I'm probably over thinking it (first time for everything razz) but I'd be a little disappointed if this turns out to be true.

For a first-timer, I don't think you're doing that bad. I remember the thrill of buying a new LP back in the days, buying it in the shop, carrying it in a bag, worrying it will get stuck in the front wheel of your bicycle, finally getting it home in one piece, taking it out of the sleeve, seeing it for the first time, just looking at that damn black vinyl thing, then slowly letting the needle hit the groove and let the music come... Show me any digital download that has that same feeling! This is why vinyl is coming back and any artist who doesn't recognize this is an idiot!
Anyway, it's great that young people are still discovering Prince!

Funkenberry just tweeted:

The NEW album is entitled "HITNRUN"

.

So no "The Hit & Run" just "HITNRUN" as 1 word ala HARDROCKLOVER & PLECTRUMELECTRUM tracks.

How many times are you going to repeat that lie? Are you so insistent on proving you know nothing?

You're cute when your reading comprehension is poor. But hey, I do have a serious question:

Can you name 5 songs Prince recorded from, say, 2001 forward that you think are good? I'm genuinely curious to know.

Gotta love the Org: Prince signs a deal with Kobalt, nothing happens for SIX MONTHS (ghee, I wonder why? Lemme guess: they refused to sink time and money in some third-rate rubbish they knew he wasn't going to promote -- hence Prince trying to peddle the album to other parties by taking an out of the blue promo trip to the UK) and then he signs a deal with WBR (who did NOT agree to release the 3EG record) and poof, WBR is the cause PlecElec didn't get released in late 2013.

true, but also look at what they said when he signed the Kobalt deal:

“This new venture gives PRINCE the flexibility and freedom he’s always sought in a label partner. We’re providing a high level of diverse services that will be particularly customized to his vision for each release, allowing the world to experience more music from PRINCE and his creative community"

jaysus, and we got almost nothing from it. And that was an official announcement! Don't get me wrong though, i'm hoping for a new album as soon as everyone else smile

i ask one question of you, it only requires a yes or no..Are you employed, related to or affiliated with Prince, Kobalt, WBR any legal, mgmt teams for either party; if no, you talk out your ass cuz you dont know and it is all speculation

I can't help to be a bit sceptical like this as well. How many times have we heard stuff like something big is coming soon, remasters are on the way, PR 30th Anniversary etc.
.
Saying that I'm definitely hoping for a new album after liking Hardrocklover and I'm still digging AOA but we'll see...

Don't forget the smell of fresh vinyl out of the sleeve and the thrill of looking at the art work and reading the liner notes. wink

I agree. Implies (to me anyway) that it may be one of those things were we get a tweet notification at like 3:47am stating to go download from iTunes, or stream on Tidal (or wherever he lets his music be accessed from). I kind of have a gut feeling it'll be sometime very, VERY soon. Just a feeling I have...

Exactly. Holy sh*t! Dude's a frickin' buzz kill! if he wasn't so absolutely PROTECTED around here (for whatever reason), I'd really let him know how I feel. But, he must have some photos of someone or something...

I like his current sound so any news is good news.

"Hit&Run" sounds like a 3EG album? Especially with the girls being the ones seemingly "gold experiencing" the promotion i.e. "Prince doesn't want to talk to you, but he's a super-nice person; here's an album you can't buy"...

I was looking forward to "FreeUrself". This sounds like it's going to be the same album (but with Hannah taking the vocal on several tracks) as opposed to another double release?
