    WHAT YOU SAID!

    I’m sooo glad he’s releasing it to the UK this way. He is timeless and he’s taking it back to how it should be the internet has stolen the lives of the young to the point they’ve forgotten what a playground looks like.

    HE’S DONE ONCE IT’S UPLOADED TO HIS HATED INTA-NETS, LOL. CANT TO SWAGGER JACK THE TRACKS ON BLAKMUZIKFIRST. HOW IS HE MAKING MONEY ON THIS WHEN IT’S ALL FOR FREE?? OH, THAT’S RIGHT HIS ADVANCE IS COMING FROM THE RAG SHEET THE DAILY MIRROR. AND THAT’S SUPPOSED TO BE BETTER THAN ITUNES?? UM, OK… WHATEV’S.

  9. EXPOSED July 7, 2010

    HONESTLY SOUNDS LIKE LACKLUSTRE CUT TRACKS FROM THE 80’S. HE HASNT UPDATED HIS MUSIC AT ALL, INSTRUMENTATION, OR ANYTHING. TALK ABOUT GOING BACK IN TIME, SMH. STILL THE SAME SOFT WHISPERING AND EVEN THAT HAS LESS POWER THAN HIS PRIME. ANOTHER FLOP FROM PRINCE! KEEP IN MIND HE’S A ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAMER…. *ROLLS EYES*

    S*** LIL GUY

  11. sit down OLD negro July 7, 2010

    sit down old negro with your old a** sound that won’t even sell to white audience. move over. let the young people have it, just like chuck berry did 4 u. your time is up.

    i don’t know how a world traveled negro could make such dumb statements about the internet. like way too many of his generation DRUGS HAVE FRIED HIS BRAINS INTO STUPIDITY. MUSIC SUCKS

    Prince is sounding funky again and that’s a good look for him, it shows real promise. I don’t want to jump on the bandwagon, but I like Beginning Endlessly too. That is the strongest clip out of the three. I wish him the best!

  13. TeeMan July 7, 2010

    Prince is years ahead of anyone else on the radio and he is a musical God! He’s keeping the music Funky and real and not selling out. Real music for real music people. Real instruments and real Funk.

  14. UGh July 7, 2010

    I’m not a Prince fan but watch him sell a s*** load of CDs

  15. 2UGELLUS MORONS July 8, 2010

    GELLUS H8RZ! Bow to the gawd that is Prince! A master of music … makes MJ look like the punk a** dead MOFO he is.

  16. Anne July 8, 2010

    LOVE IT!!! DEFINITELY HITS!

  17. franticPanic July 8, 2010

    Musical prodigy? Yes…but frankly, after 15 years of his weak embarrassing releases I owe him nothing…not even my attention.

    The snippets of the new tracks sound lame. Somewhere along the way (1990 or so) Prince decided he had rather be a media personality, instead of a musician, and the resulting musical releases have suffered for it. He’s not hungry anymore, and obviously he feels that he has nothing to prove. Maybe he doesn’t—but why go to the trouble of destroying the legacy with thrown-together, half efforts?

    On a side topic, if the truth were told, the vault is empty—it was a myth. If the tunes there were everything they’ve been claimed to be, why would he do this, when he could do that? Prove me wrong.

  18. Anne July 8, 2010

    GLAD HE IS KEEPING IT OLD SCHOOL & FUNKY. HE HAS DIE-HARD FANS THAT WILL SUPPORT HIM, ESPECIALLY WHEN HE IS TRUE TO HIS SIGNATURE SOUND AND THAT’S WHAT THESE SAMPLES ARE.

  19. THEBLACKONE07 July 8, 2010

    PRINCE IS WITHOUT QUESTION THE MOST TALENTED COMPOSER/ MUSICIAN IN RECENT HISTORY, HE IS A MASTER OF HIS CRAFT. BE IT DIGITAL OR ACCUSTIC HE IS A MUSICIAN’S MUSICIAN.MUCH RESPECT IS DO TO PRINCE AND ALL THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN A PART OF HIS BANDS. SO IF YA CANT PLAY AN INSTRUMENT OR SING IN KEY (sing well),stfu and be greatful u lived to see such talent.

  20. BENJAMIN July 8, 2010

    “Compassion doesn’t sound like much, but the other two sound interesting. I see he is doing retro. Gotta admit, I like the retro sound more that the lyrics. But all in all, I guess I look forward to his new piece of work. Too bad here in the states we don’t get the freebie.

  21. likeCAESAR July 8, 2010

    Yet another example of why Janelle Monae is not doing ANYTHING original!

  22. Robert “Prince” Stahl July 8, 2010

    Holy Funktified Jesus! This is HOTNESS! Free blowjobs for Prince!

  23. ************************** July 11, 2010

    @2UGELLOUS MORONS

    LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO You Prince fans just can’t keep MJ’s name out your mouths. Yall hate MJ because he still sells more CDs than Prince and he’s 6 feet under. Keep whining.

  24. Fi fi la rue July 11, 2010

    hi guys i have a copy of prince 2010 for sale!!!!! n e 1 interested email me fionah2@msn.com.

  25. Meli August 9, 2010

    AMAZING! 99% of you are idiots! I cant wait to hear the full album! The reason he keeps his sound funk/soul and “Old school” is because the music people make today SUCKS! You are all brainwashed assholes who need to get a mind of you own and figure out what real music is, because Prince is the s*** and a REAL artist!
