Extra! Extra! Prince To Release New CD Via Newspaper; WB Update

Prince's new CD 20Ten (some title) will be released first through a Belgium newspaper on July 10.  An interview took place with the newspaper which teases the release.

Other newspaper deals may follow as deals were trying to be reached.  Warner Bros. was mentioned as releasing the CD to other countries not participating in the newspaper giveaway.  More than likely that means the U.S. as when he did the giveaway before, the U.S. was not part of it.

As we previously reported, Prince met with Warner Bros. Records on Tuesday, and the distribution deal appears to already be in place.  We have learned what was discussed was the deal, but also something else.  So, this distribution deal could actually lead to something else.  Hmm.   I still want a live DVD.

Tuesday night, Prince attended a show by Cassandra Wilson in Hollywood.  As we mentioned before, he is in town for the BET Awards this Sunday where he is recieveng the Lifetime Achievement Award, but is not performing.

  20. Thanks for the info Doc! Surely he will jam with someone before Sunday and you will let us know about it, right?

  21. Great news Doc & I knew a new CD was in the pipeline! Great to see he is using both his alternative distribution (newspapers) and WB (label) channels to get new music to the people. Let’s just hope a consistent global distribution so all countries benefit, followed by a world tour!

    PS. Love the name 20Ten!

  22. Dont hold your breath for remasters. If we get anything of the sort they will be butchered to death considering his current beliefs! Such a shame……

  23. Remasters would be great, especially on SACD! Some Blu-Rays of some Concerts and a new CD, awesome!?!

  28. 20TEN IS A TWO ALBUMS

  29. look on the wikapida two albums 20ten

  30. it is said the CD will be release on July 23rd in the US!

  31. I don’t know what all the wasted column inches are for…Some people need the record set straight for them

    This new Prince CD represents a new musical nadir in a long list of ever decreasing nadirs for the once great purple one. With tracks like “everybody loves me” and the banal c side re-work of some old jam entitled “sticky like glue” these tracks come packaged wit a third rate newspaPer and third rate art work.

    What a let down. The last time I will bother buying a newspaper with a free CD.

  32. Any word yet on the US release on the new album 20ten? Is there any new information? Can one buy the album yet? If so at what Store? Thanks 07-22-2010
    A.E.

  33. Considering the previous 3disc set is now selling for under $5 at Target, I can’t say I’m expecting much out of this one.

  34. @ Keith Sheehan

    No one is forcing U to buy it. So take ur opinion elsewhere………..
