Prince Releases New Single "FUNKNROLL" From Upcoming Album 'ART OFFICIAL AGE'

Prince's two new albums ART OFFICIAL AGE and PLECTRUMELECTRUM (caps lock intentional) are both set for release on Sept. 30, but today, Consequence of Sound reports that the legendary artist has shared yet another single from one of these albums. "FUNKNROLL" is the third single to be released from ART OFFICIAL AGE, following "BREAKFAST CAN WAIT" and "BREAKDOWN," and though it's not available for streaming, it is available for purchase over at Amazon right now.

ART OFFICIAL AGE is a solo album in the truest sense of the term: Prince wrote, produced, and performed every song on the album himself, just as he did for many of his classics such as Dirty Mind, Controversy, and 1999. PLECTRUMELECTRUM, on the other hand, is the debut album from Prince's new band 3rdEyeGirl. Prince has released two singles from PLECTRUMELECTRUM so far: "FIXURLIFEUP" and "PRETZELBODYLOGIC."

Prince's most recent album was 2010's 20Ten, which makes this the longest gap between album releases in Prince's career. ART OFFICIAL AGE will be Prince's 34th studio album, and his first with Warner Bros. Records since contentiously splitting with the label following the poor sales of 1995's The Gold Experience.
