A mix of pop, rock, funk, and a ballad, the CD was like having a D√©j√? Vu moment from Prince recordings circa 1985. You all know about his mysterious period when he went by ?ÄòThe Artist.?Äô To borrow a clich√©, forget about it! Prince and his band NPG want to play, and they?Äôre willing to share it all with you. The disc contains ten songs about love, life, bias, and parties.

If you desire the lyrics then you will have to download them from the NPG website ( www.3121.com ). Be sure to check out the tour dates for Planet Earth.
