Slave was the first promotional single to be released from Prince’s 19th album Emancipation, the third to be credited to SymbolSmallerBlue.png.

It was given out to audience members at a Paisley Park Studios show on 9 December 1995, only nine days after Gold, the final single from The Gold Experience, was released (in the intervening time between this single’s distribution and the release of Emancipation, both Girl 6 and Chaos And Disorder albums were released).

The b-side, New World, was also taken from Emancipation, following Slave in sequence on the third disc of the 3 CD set.

As the single was only given to audience members at one show, it was not eligible for any charts.
