Prince's iconic "Diamonds and Pearls" album from 1991 is getting reissued, and it will include numerous unreleased songs as well as unseen concert footage.

According to reports, Paisley Park Enterprises announced that they will be reissuing one of the most pivotal albums Prince & The New Power Generation has ever released.

The deluxe version of "Diamonds and Pearls" will be released on Oct. 27 via Paisley Part Entertainment in partnership with Sony Music Entertainment and Warner Records.

To sweeten the pot, the "When Doves Cry" singer's estate will be unveiling 47 unreleased tracks as well as two hours' worth of unseen concert footage.

It will come in a giant 7CD or 12LP set, but will also be available in 2CD and 1CD versions.

Prince Unreleased Songs

This is not the first time Prince's estate has discovered a treasure trove of unreleased songs by the "Raspberry Berret" singer.

They have also released several remastered and reissued versions of Prince's albums.

In 2019, "1999 Super Deluxe Edition" was released, while another reissue "Sign O' The Times Super Deluxe Edition" was dropped in 2020.

More unreleased songs were discovered by archivist Michael Howe in 2021. These were the songs from the singer's shelved 2010 album "Welcome 2 America," which was later posthumously released in 2021.

Prince is the most posthumously released music in the industry. After his death, his estate has been releasing music that has been shelved. He is also continuously recognized for his legacy in the industry as he had been inducted into the Rhythm and Blues Music Hall of Fame.

He is known as one of the most iconic artists of his time, and his music is still listened to today. Prince died of a fentanyl overdose at the age of 57.
