Prince's seventh studio album, released in April 1985 through Paisley Park and Warner Bros. Records, marked a stylistic shift from the previous year's commercially dominant Purple Rain. The project featured the Revolution as credited backing musicians and showcased experimentation with psychedelic elements and ornate sonic arrangements. Following Prince's preference for the album to be experienced as a complete work, the record label initially promoted it with restrained marketing and delayed single releases by approximately one month.
