Another Awesome News For 2018!


A new album containing previously unreleased works of legendary Prince is set to be released by the end of September. During a brief interview with Variety, Troy Carter, known as the ex-Lady Gaga manager and the CEO of Atom Factory is overseeing Prince’s estate, tells Variety, “Last week, the release of ‘Nothing Compares 2 U’ was the first piece of music to come from our collaboration with the estate, and now we’re working on a release for the fall — a full-length album.” This news was after the two-year death anniversary, as well as the release of the above-mentioned ‘Nothing Compares 2 U’ and a backup music video of archival performance footage from the vault.

The estate also released two new websites to honor Prince’s two-year death anniversary. One contains a deep dive into his discography and while the other one is for fans for them to share their remembrances called “Prince2me.” According to Carter, the announced new album will be released on Warner Bros. Records, so it’s safe to say that it will be music from his years with the label, including the time when he wrote the word “slave” on his face after his battles against with Warner Bros. over creative control of his music.
