It would be mind-blowing if it was actually newly produced music, as opposed to simply being previously unreleased music.
Whatever his other failings as a person, he was a smart businessman.
I never did care for a thing this guy did. So, I’m filing this in my GIVAZHIT file.
By some accounts there are literally hundreds of songs fully produced, mixed and ready to go that Prince chose not to release. Some of them are described to be, by people who worked on them really good songs. I’m not a big Prince fan, it I am curious to see what’s in the vault.

I’ve been underwhelmed, to say the least, by every posthumously released album (save records like Sublime’s that were already produced to be released when the artist died), but I’ll reserve judgment. Wasn’t a huge fan of his style, but he was definitely an icon.
Previously unreleased = not good enough for a previous album.
I have a feeling Prince will have a larger influence now, than when he was alive.
He was sort of a modern Mozart, where music flowed from his brain, almost uncontrollably.
He got hung up on commercial issues and drugs, whilst still creating.
An artist’s life.
There’s always a reason that stuff wasn’t released in the first place.
From what I have heard of Prince music, he will be ‘singing’ an octave higher then most women.
Prince stopped blowing my mind when he broke up the Revolution
Frankly, Prince’s last decent music was on Sign o’ the Times in 1987! After that, it was all self-indulgent crap.
