The singer said he has nearly completed two solo albums, tentatively titled MPLSOUND and Lotus Flower, as well as a record called Elixir with his protégé Bria Valente [via NME.com].
MPLSOUND is said to feature a guest appearance by Q-Tip, and Prince has stated that the electro-leaning album showcases "new ways of recording." Lotus Flower, which fans are already familiar with, thanks to Prince's aforementioned radio preview, represents the guitar-based side of Prince's musical trilogy.
Describing Elixir, Prince categorized the music as "nasty, but not dirty," comparing collaborator Valente to "Smooth Operator" singer Sade.
All three albums are expected to be released independently by Prince.
