Lotus Flow3r

Rolling Stone has revealed the artwork for Prince’s new album Lotus Flow3r in an article about Prince’s recent late night soiree at his Beverly Hills mansion. You may recall we brought you here the first recap of the night’s events. 

So what do you think? Pretty? y/n? It looks very Earth,Wind, & Fire/Jacksons, doesn’t it? Can’t wait to hear what’s inside. – Dr. FC

    his album cover does have meaning and yes its very spiritual but with what spirit.i do know that the spirit is a spirit channeled through a spirit they call the old one. now i am a bit confused about his eyes covered usually the eyes are focused upon.the triangle is caped and the all seeing eye is gone but the leaves represent life………..does anyone see where i am going with this if so please respond

    I could write quite a few pages analizing this album art useing my media studies knowleage. There is a big debate on whether it’s a. L.A or Minni skyline, I belive it’s a Minni skyline looking at pictures of both. The blue light comming from the lotus flower is from L.A though, I think he is trying to combine the two. I love the album art, purple and gold together is def a signature of Prince. One of the best!

    I am a Prince fan from way back. I’m not fareweather. I have been very critical of Prince lately because his music is not only not up to par with the things he’s released in the past, but it has flat out sucked. I dig the album cover, but I hope that the music matches what we see on the cover.

    It does resemble the EWF All N All album (which I still have), and the JAckson 5’s album. It’s a pretty clever cover…very colorful. Heard a few tracks…Old Prince coming through – little bit of Jimi Hendrix in there. I like it.

    Less is more. K.I.S.S.

    Typography is important. Free fonts does not equal great fonts.

    Prince stood or perhaps sat behind the “designers” and directed them. A graphic designer not only designs but advises, gives valid points as to why say just showing a mouth makes no sense. Why a Halloween free font does not work. Why PRINCE is too big and have the guts to walk away if the client thinks just because its his music work, that he/she should leave the visuals to the professionals. They are not your puppets.

    it’s a funky purple prince cover for the new year, the new JAM cover
    of the year!We should never let down DA MAN “PRINCE”.
    he’s the purple guy, and we’re seeing a whole new different look of the CD cover, which we don’t see Prince’s face, well, some of it, but the thing is it looks like this the 2nd time he didn’t show his face since Rainbow Children.
    Oh, also The Black Album. I should never neglect Prince’s art of the CD.
    Purple Reigns, everyone!!!

    It really makes you wonder about these people all around the world, who seem to take joy in putting down everything Prince does. There are some Prince sites where some of the fams, do nothing but criticize Prince’s music and everything else he does. It really makes you wonder it these people are true Prince fams. And the sad thing about it is, that most of the people don’t have half the talent that Prince has. Those of us who are real die hard fams love everything that he does.

    Hey Prince —

    I liked your cover of Radiohead’s song Creep that you did at the Caochella Festival. Great vocals.

    Can you say:
    Site influence:
    Janelle Monáe

    Album influence:
    Lotus live Sanata?

    great looking site and excited for the return of the axe.
    Hopefully he will have Rock station support?
    Good luck with that!

    His eyes are not shown because he does not need them to C.

    I Wish Him Heaven!

    I feel the cover shot is very creative. I see some of you all don’t like it. Do you think you can do better? Perhaps you can, but it’s not your vision of the music. I don’t except what Prince puts out. I admire his genius and I enjoy his art.

    Shut Up … Already, Damn !!!

    That’s a fly cover! Very artistic and he hasn’t had one like that in a while. I can’t wait for Lotusflow3r to drop!

    I think it’s a nice concept… but i wish it was a little more “REAL” rather than so clean and crisp. The music is guitar laden and i think a more SIMPLISTIC and NATURAL concept would have worked better… I’d expect the cover for MPLSsound to look like this maybe, not Lotus Flow3r. Oh well…

    … and yup the font is awful. Plain awful.
