Prince was an iconic American musician and songwriter known for his innovative blend of funk, rock, R&B, and pop. Born in 1958 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Prince began his musical career at a young age and quickly gained recognition for his exceptional talent as a singer, multi-instrumentalist, and performer.
Throughout his career, Prince released numerous critically acclaimed albums that showcased his unique style and boundary-pushing creativity. His music explored themes of love, sexuality, spirituality, and social issues with a fearless honesty that resonated with audiences worldwide.
Beyond his musical accomplishments, Prince was also recognized for his flamboyant stage presence and distinctive fashion sense. He captivated audiences with electrifying live performances that showcased not only his incredible musicianship but also his dynamic showmanship.

Warner is a renowned music publishing company and a division of the Warner Music Group. With its origins dating back to 1811, when Chappell & Company was founded as a music publishing company and instrument shop in London's Bond Street, Warner/Chappell has grown to become one of the largest music publishers in the industry.

Established in 1987 after Warner Communications acquired Chappell & Co., Warner/Chappell boasts an impressive catalog of over one million songs and represents more than 65,000 talented songwriters. Having operated under the name Warner/Chappell Music for over three decades, the company recently rebranded itself as *Warner Chappell Music* in May 2019, unveiling a fresh new logo.

With various name variations such as *Warner/Chappell*, *Warner-Chappell*, *Warner Chapell*, and *Warner Chappel*, this label continues to make significant contributions to the music industry by nurturing and promoting exceptional talent worldwide.

Around the World in a Day is the seventh studio album by Prince, and the second to feature his backing band The Revolution. It was released on April 21, 1985 by Paisley Park Records and Warner Bros. Purple Rain made Prince sound like he could do anything, but it still didn't prepare even his most fervent fans for the insular psychedelia of Around the World in a Day. Prince had made his interior world sound fascinating and utopian on Purple Rain, but Around the World in a Day is filled with cryptic religious imagery, bizarre mysticism, and confounding metaphors which were drenched in heavily processed guitars, shimmering keyboards, grandiose strings, and layers of vocals. Standout tracks include Raspberry Beret - a brilliant piece of neo-psychedelia with an indelible chorus, Pop Life - a snide swipe at stardom that emphasizes Prince's outsider status and America - a stunning funk jam.
