The album titled "Art Official Age" is his solo album that is dubbed as the "classic Prince," with the singer being involved in all three aspects: composing, producing and performing. The other album "Plectrumelectrum" is a collaboration with the girl group 3rdEyeGirl, a funk rock band who was also his backing band for a short West Coast tour last year and in London, February of this year.

The album art for Art Official Age has already been revealed, showing the musician in a brightly colored background and wearing space glasses matched with a gold jacket. The album's tracklist will have 13 overall songs, including "Breakfast Can Wait" that was first released August last year at an exclusive download via 3rdEyeGirl's website, "Clouds," "The Gold Standard," "U Know," "This Could Be Us," and more.

The other album Plectrumelectrum will feature 12 songs, including "Fixurlifeup," "Pretzelbodylogic," "Boytrouble," and more. Rita Ora is also expected to be featured on Art Official Age with a dynamic rap song.

Both albums will be released on Sept. 29 under Warner Bros. Records. The launch of both albums will come with a series of special events.
