A tracklist for the album was revealed by [http://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B014RPCV82?ref_=cm_sw_r_awd_Sy95vb04A5H2T Amazon.fr] four days before the [http://tidal.com/ Tidal] stream.

− | + | Much of the album is believed to have been recorded in early-to-mid 2015 at [[Paisley Park Studios]], Chanhassen, MN, USA. Some tracks were recorded earlier, however. [[1000 X's & O's]] was originally recorded as [[1000 X's & O's|A 1,000 Hugs And Kisses]] in late April or early May, 1992 at [[Studios 301]], Sydney, Australia, with [[Rosie Gaines]] on lead vocals (during the same set of sessions as [[Goldnigga]], [[Deuce & A Quarter]], [[Goldie's Parade]], [[Everybody Get On Up]] and [[Baby Doll]]). In late 1993 or early 1994 [[Rosie Gaines]]' vocals were replaced by [[Nona Gaye]] at [[Paisley Park Studios]], Chanhassen, MN, USA, and her version was intended for a planned project titled [[Album: MPLS|MPLS]], but this project remained unfinished. Around the same time, however, it was considered for inclusion on a proposed album by [[Nona Gaye]], but this was also left unfinished. The version included here is thought to be a new recording from Autumn 2014, however. [[Fallinlove2nite]] was recorded in late 2013 for [[Prince]]'s appearance on the TV series [[Series: New Girl|New Girl]], with horn and string overdubs recorded in December, 2013. [[Shut This Down]] is believed to have been recorded in Spring 2014. [[This Could Be Us|This Could Be Us]] was originally recorded in Spring 2014 and released on [[Album: Art Official Age|Art Official Age]] (as [[This Could Be Us]]), before it was remixed in 2014 or early 2015 with additional overdubs. [[Ain't About 2 Stop]] and [[The X's Face|X's Face]] were originally recorded in Summer 2014. [[Million $ Show]] was recorded in early 2015. [[Hardrocklover]] and [[June]] were recorded on the same day in late June, 2015. Nothing is currently known about the recording dates of [[Like A Mack]] and [[Mr. Nelson]]. | |

The album was first announced during an interview by [[Hannah Welton-Ford]] on BBC 6music on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/July 24|24 July, 2015]]. An article on the [http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-33649080 BBC News Entertainment & Arts] website followed the same day. Another interview by the [[3rdEyeGirl]] band with BBC 6music DJ [http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0072kvv Liz Kershaw] was announced for the following day to discuss the album further, but this was then postponed to either 8 or 15 August, 2015 (this did not end up taking place). | The album was first announced during an interview by [[Hannah Welton-Ford]] on BBC 6music on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/July 24|24 July, 2015]].

[[Prince]] dropped in briefly during each interview. Curiously, reporters were asked not to name any tracks on the album other than those already confirmed at the time ([[Hardrocklover]], [[This Could B Us]] and [[1000 X's & O's]]. |
Three singles from the album have been released to date: [[Single: Fallinlove2nite|Fallinlove2nite]] was released 18 months before the album (prior to the release of the two previous studio albums, in fact, with no album announced at the time of the single's release); [[Single: Hardrocklover|Hardrocklover]] was released ten weeks before the album's release (although no album was announced at the time of the single's release); [[Single:_This_Could_B_Us|This Could B Us]] was released two weeks prior to the album's availability on [http://tidal.com/ Tidal]. | Three singles from the album have been released to date: [[Single: Fallinlove2nite|Fallinlove2nite]] was released 18 months before the album (prior to the release of the two previous studio albums, in fact, with no album announced at the time of the single's release); [[Single: Hardrocklover|Hardrocklover]] was released ten weeks before the album's release (although no album was announced at the time of the single's release); [[Single:_This_Could_B_Us|This Could B Us]] was released two weeks prior to the album's availability on [http://tidal.com/ Tidal]. | ||
