Co-Sign...not every fan purchases every itunes/ 3rdeyegirl single and listens to unreleased audio recordings... These songs are to good to be not released on an album... If only Prince and his team would not hype everything that much...just say it is a collection of some favourite songs of the last years and people would not complain that much | |

Guitarhero said: I have never known a more moaning fanbase as Prince's. You should have been a Bob Dylan fan in the 1960s... ![]() Seriously, a new Prince album used to be something exciting. An event! Something that people were dying to hear. But the way he's doing things now, giving his albums away with newspapers, dropping them on Tidal just like that... It feels as if he puts no thought or effort in his albums whatsoever. And if he does release them thru a record company, he can't be bothered to promote them. So if Prince doesn't care about his albums, why should I? | |

You can buy it on TIDAL, you don't need to be a member. It's worthy of a purchase. | |

Well, I listened to Phase 2 before coming on here to read the inevitable 'constructive', postive reviews. I like the fact that tracks I've had for some time are finally on an album.
Personal favourite - of the songs we've all heard for some time: Groovy Potential. Favourite new track: Back Muse or Revelation. Undecided.
I will say, for me there's not a poor track on this album. Screwdriver - played it to death and my personal preference is the extended version previous released. That doesn't make it a poor track, just heard it too much.
A solid release, which will hold more surprises for casual fans, which is likley Prince's intention. | |

I find it a bit strange that he's included Baltimore instead of Free Urself, and Screwdriver doesn't really fit here; I don't really want to pay again for Extraloveable, Groovy Potential and Stare, and I am not a fan of RNR Love Affair; Still, this was a great surprise: I'm loving Look at Me, Look at You, When She Comes and Black Muse (nothing he hasn't done before, but cool songs all the same), it's cool to finally have 2Y2D and Big City, although I am really puzzled by the tempo of this last one, so different from the live version I had heard! Not a perfect album, but evidence that Prince still can deliver good music. He just needs someone to tell him when it is substandard and focus a bit more (how different 2015 would have been if there was only one Hitnrun with the best from both albums and Free Urself, or if we hadn't heard half of these songs before - we'd be amazed at how good Prince still is!) | |

Seriously. I'm not buying Phase One again. I'll need to wait for the CD. "Drop that stereo before I blow your Goddamn nuts off, asshole!"

Prince listens and simply releases the album to stream and/or download without fuss and most of you still complain? Revelation is worth the price of admission alone. | |

BartVanHemelen said: Didn't he say something about "albums matter"? Funny, cuz this is obviously "a collection of shite I had laying around". . Then again, mister "I'm not looking back" is also rehashing tracks that were recorded years ago. And previously he released a video of the first twenty minutes from a concert from a year and a half ago, and all of the songs they played were thirty years old. Yet expanded and remastered editions of his classic 1980s output are not on the table. If Revelation is shite, Prince's shite is gold. | |

BVH has been whining and rehashing the same 1 note opinions for close to 2 decades now, perhaps we should throw him a 20th Whining Anniversary Party. | |

I'm glad Groovy Potential is on this. That song is fantastic. More people will hear it now. Not a ton more, but more. "Drop that stereo before I blow your Goddamn nuts off, asshole!"

It is a very nice album. There is a jazz/gospel feeling around, a very strong use of horns. I think it is one of more accessibile album he releases (the opposite of Phase I). I'm really happy he releases this in the same project of Phase I: from dubstep to gospel. I have no problem if half of the album was released as digital singles: the album is omogenous and have a strong vibe. | |

I will buy this, but to be fair I am going to pay £14.99 for seven new songs. It is a bit pricey.. (even if Screwdriver is a new version, I have already paid for it a few times. I have also paid for Extraloveable, Baltimore, Groovy Potentinal, Stare and RnR Love affair before..). Great collection of songs, though.
