Prince – HITnRUN phase two (2-LP Vinyl)

Released exclusively through Tidal before most listeners had fully absorbed Phase One, HITnRUN Phase Two arrived with the quiet urgency that defined Prince's final creative period, a prolific stretch in which he seemed determined to release music entirely on his own terms, outside the traditional label machinery he'd spent decades fighting. "Baltimore," written in response to the death of Freddie Gray, stands as one of his most direct political statements, a reminder that Prince's funk and spirituality were always rooted in something deeper.
