Hot New Prince

Prince, Seductive as Always

We interrupt our regularly-scheduled programming to bring you an important update on everyone’s favorite androgynous pan-sexual, Prince Rogers Nelson. The five-foot phenom has just dropped 5 hot new tracks, which are spreading across the internet as quickly as news that Sarah Palin isn’t actually worth any attention anymore.

After finding dead link after dead link (sorry, PMA), I’ve found 4 of 5 in mp3 form. And, believe it or not, they’re pretty damn funky. Much better than most of Planet Earth. (Which was miserable, with one possible exception.)

Find it after the break.

The Double-secret Probation EP (aka the first 4 tracks from America’s royalty’s 2009 album, which is rumored to be titled Crimson & Clover.)

Word is that Prince is eying some sort of new way to release his album, a la Radiohead. If you remember, 2007’s Planet Earth was given out free with a Sunday edition of the UK’s Daily Mail. Its distribution led directly to the success of Prince’s 21-night stay in London, playing the O2 and Indigo2.

His purple highness is really what The Animal Show is all about. I won’t rhapsodize here, but let’s just say that Prince has made me everything I am. If you’ve never seen Purple Rain, you’ve never experienced human emotions, plain and simple.
