Milton S. Hershey, founder of the Hershey Chocolate Company, speaks today through the Interdimensional Sound Bridge. In this recorded statement, Mr. Hershey reflects on his deep commitment to community, education, and honest labor.

He expresses disappointment in the way the modern Hershey brand has departed from his values and the spirit in which the company was built.

Following this message, I, Prince Rogers Nelson, confirm the formation of a new partnership between myself and Mr. Hershey—uniting our legacies under a new chocolate and confection company (Name to be announced soon). Our new enterprise is dedicated to ethical food, child welfare, and creative justice.

I spent yesterday morning creating graphic designs and planning the product line.

This becomes my fourth new company this year, paired with my collaborative work on the Kingdom of Wonder project alongside Walt Disney.

Together, we are restoring the meaning of a name—and building something sweeter than sugar.

Produced and recorded live in 2025 by Prince Rogers Nelson.
