Prince Premieres "Ol' Skool Company" On Leno

The artist formerly known as The Artist Formerly Known As Prince may need lessons in graphic and web design, but when it comes to showmanship we are all his bitches. The little man is in Los Angeles to play three shows (all on Saturday) and three nights on Leno (this week) to promote a trilogy of new LPs, which got started with last night's Tonight Show premiere of MPLSoUND's "Ol' Skool Company." The topical funky cut references bailouts and AIG and isn't the most memorable selection in his miles-deep oeuvre, but watching him cruise through it still makes me want to throw my panties onstage. Enjoy that imagery, enjoy this imagery more:

Prince's MPLSoUND, Lotusflow3r, and Elixer are out physically this Sunday. Pick 'em up while you're at Target this weekend.

UPDATE: Nights two and three...

This is my absolute favorite jam from his new releases. The funk is thick in this one!

At least Prince is not sucking balls to the Grammys just to get an award or recording stuff with Hanson or Justin Timbarlake.

Only the Purple One can pull of a "guitar face" I wouldn't want to punch. Props on that.
