The 1st one in "Shhh" is fantastic, with it's strong Drums, Keyboards, and Guitars (my Wife likes "Tevin Campell's " version better though).... The album also had a "NPG Operator" in between the songs (played by "Rain Invana"), which keeps the album running smooth.... Images for The Artist (Formerly Known As Prince) – The Gold Experience". Discogs . Retrieved June 29, 2017. The 1990s weren't kind to The Kid. As we all know, Prince just doesn't respond well to being told that he can't, and the disputes with his record label en route to starting his own lead to a homogenized, inconsistent decade ahead, not helped by Prince's wild eccentricities that got him seriously bad press during this period. So erratic a time, in fact, that it wound up creating the image of Prince as the out-of-touch, delusional former innovator we know today.The Gold Experience was the first full-length Prince album to be credited to his unpronounceable symbol, and was released at the most public, heated stage of his battle with the major label industrial complex. With the word “SLAVE” written on one cheek, Prince shined on the opulent ballads “The Most Beautiful Girl in the World” and “Gold” and the defiant single “Eye Hate U,” and the album earned widespread critical acclaim. With that being said, the album starts off with "P Control"....It's very explicit, but it does talk about a woman not letting guys get over on her...

The album was produced entirely by Prince and released on September 26, 1995, by NPG Records and Warner Bros. Records. The album charted at number 6 on the Billboard 200 and number 2 on the Top R&B Albums. [2] The singles " The Most Beautiful Girl in the World", " I Hate U", and " Gold" charted on the Billboard Hot 100 at numbers 3, 12, and 88 respectively. [2] Today The Prince Estate and Legacy Recordings, a division of Sony Music Entertainment, are pleased to announce a special Record Store Day re-release of Prince’s 1995 album The Gold Experienceon June 18, 2022. The Record Store Day re-release of TheGoldExperienceis an homage to the rare US-only promo version of the album that was released in 1995. The two-LP set is pressed onto translucentgoldvinyl with a bonus suite of “Eye Hate U” remixes on Side D. Every use of the pronoun "I" throughout the song titles and liner notes is represented by a stylized "👁" symbol. This symbol is commonly transliterated as "Eye" amongst Prince fans, as "👁 No" and "I Wish U Heaven" both appeared on Lovesexy.

The Symbol: The Gold Experience" (in Finnish). Musiikkituottajat – IFPI Finland. Retrieved May 1, 2016. Without The Most Beautiful Girl In The World from February 2017 to February 2022 due to a legal action. In my review for Exodus, I called it Prince's most truly experimental album. Well, my opinion on experimental albums is rarely that they are great in and of themselves. However, they often directly contribute to an artist's growth. In other words, Exodus walked so that The Gold Experience could fly. The Gold Experience was voted the 30th best album of 1995 in the Pazz & Jop, an annual poll of American critics published by The Village Voice. [19] Christgau, the poll's supervisor, ranked it 10th best in his own year-end list. [20] In a retrospective review, Keith Harris from Blender cited The Gold Experience as the best album Prince recorded in the 1990s, "a mix of newly stripped-down funk and delicate balladry that reasserts his dynamic range".

British Phonographic Industry. Select albums in the Format field. Select Gold in the Certification field. Type The Gold Experience in the "Search BPI Awards" field and then press Enter. Oh yeah, the Operator. Tying the entire album together is a voiceover introducing some of the songs as if they were computer programs, like it's some sort of machine full of..... automatic..... experiences, or..... something, I dunno. Okay, it's Prince. You know how it goes. Well, maybe you don't. Then the 3rd and perfect album closer in "Gold", is 7 minutes of pure greatness...It was the second single, and in my opinion, it should have faired better....
