I have mixed feelings about that though. I made a thread in the Locker Room about how while it's great that he was so protective of his music it prevented the younger generation who grew up watching YouTube from really being exposed to his music and knowing how much of a genius he was. Too many people think Prince is the weirdo who beat Charlie Murphy in basketball and don't even know his catalog because it's damn near impossible to hear his music on YouTube.

He started to open it up trough tidal and Apple Music but I can see his estate being a lot more willing to let that go in order to keep building his legacy

According to wiki, the album sold 11 million copies. Partyman's the only one I remember though.

It's definitely not one of Prince's better albums and he definitely phoned it in, but Scandalous is a GREAT song. Probably my favorite Prince slow jam outside of Adore
Prince - Scandalous ( Batman The Movie Soundtrack )

Wasn't Michael originally supposed to do the soundtrack, but something came up, so WB got Prince (who was on their label)?

They were going to do it together with prince playing instruments and Mike doing he vocals but it didn't workout. Just like the bad album was supposed to be a Michael and prince album

I wonder how jack Nicholson is taking his death. He was the one that suggested to Warner brothers that he wanted prince to do the soundtrack.
