Prince, The Black Album
The legendary Black Album is Prince's sixteenth studio album and was released in 1994 with Warner Bros. Records. The original release plan was to have the album follow Sign of the Times in an all-black sleeve with no title or credit to Prince. The album is a direct callout to criticism about Prince becoming too much of a pop-artist, and this was his attempt to regain his former audience. The record sold once for $27,000.
