The Prince Estate/Afshin Shadhidi Musicology

When Prince released his 28th studio album, Musicology, in 2004, it was hailed as a remarkable return to form. Though he’d released a steady stream of music throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, most of those albums were deemed too conceptual or uncommercial.

At the age of 29, few things are as soul-affirming as getting an earnest text asking if you want to see Real Housewives of New York alum Sonja Morgan’s live show. Getting a request like that is up there with the significance of having an in-unit washer and dryer, your copay on a doctor’s visit being less money than you anticipated, or a friend’s cat taking a shine to you and only you during a dinner party.

Sasquatch Sunset’s reputation precedes it—perhaps for better and worse.
