When this album was released, Prince promoted it by stating that it was his first record in about three years, and that it was his follow-up to the “Emancipation” triple disc set. Personally that was something that I disagreed with because he had actually released an album the year before in the form of “New [...]

I’m sitting here listening to Sir Mix-A-Lot’s “Swass” album, as well as a song of his called “You Can’t Slip” which was featured on the B-Side of the “Baby Got Back” single, and it’s pretty much dawning on me that this dude was so far ahead of his time it wasn’t funny. In fact, it’s [...]

This was Prince’s eighth studio album and the third release on his own record label, Paisley Park.

After just two studio albums under the “Wham” moniker, George Michael decided that he was far too miserable and that he very simply just could not go into the studio & record that difficult third album for the group.

According to the biggest music retailer in Australia’s website this album was originally released in May 2006 and in December of that year, it was re-packaged with a bonus DVD, which is the version that I ended up gettng myself a copy of. Anyway…. even though they initially tried their hardest to deny the fact, [...]
