With Music Icon Prince Turning 50 Next Year, Everyone's Singing This Brotha's Songs... And We Mean EVERYONE!


Undercover Black Man really got us thinking about this.

Ever wonder what Prince’s music would sound like with all the funk removed? Now we know, because college a cappella groups love to sing Prince songs. Because, you know, that way, glee clubs are cool! Below are some collegiate a cappella Prince covers Undercover gathered during the golden age of Napster.

One of them he actually likes – the first one, “Thieves in the Temple.”Click the song titles to hear these tracks streaming on my Vox site.1. “Thieves in the Temple” – UNC Loreleis2. “Let’s Go Crazy” – Tufts Beelzebubs3. “1999” – Hullabahoos (University of Virginia)

MUSIC INDUSTRY ATTACKS PAPER'S FREE CD BY HIS ROYAL BADNESS PRINCE

The eagerly awaited new album by Prince is being launched as a free CD with a national Sunday newspaper in a move drawing widespread criticism.

The Mail on Sunday revealed yesterday that the 10-track Planet Earth CD will be available with an "imminent" edition, making it the first place in the world to get the album.

Planet Earth will go on sale on July 24.

One music store executive described the plan as "madness" while others said it was a huge insult to an industry battling fierce competition from supermarkets and online stores.

"The Artist Formerly Known as Prince should know that with behaviour like this he will soon be the Artist Formerly Available in Record Stores. And I say that to all the other artists who may be tempted to dally with the Mail on Sunday."

Prince, whose Purple Rain sold more than 11m copies, also plans to give away a free copy of his latest album with tickets for his forthcoming concerts in London.
