Prince’s rare tape will get a wide release.
Back in 1995, Prince teamed up with Versace to release a promotional cassette during Paris Fashion Week. The tape, which was promoting his upcoming The Gold Experience album dropping in the fall, was called The VERSACE Experience (PRELUDE 2 GOLD). And it featured 15 then-unreleased Prince songs.
The album was only passed around to those in attendance at Paris Fashion Week. Now, for the first time, that album is available widely. The album was released on Friday, September 13th on all major streaming platforms.
