Welcome To Dove-Electric. I am Prince Rogers Nelson. I'm here today to talk about my new music. This album is my sequel to Little Red Corvette. Link: "The Jockeys That Went Before Me."
This year, I have released more music albums under my new artist ID (link) Purple Fantasy than I did in the entire forty years prior. This album is my sequel to Little Red Corvette. It's called "The Jockeys That Went Before Me." You already know the first one.
It’s been riding for decades — slick, sexy, dangerous, misunderstood.
Here is The Story Behind the Original Little Red Corvette:
Now let me say something about what’s been floating around online lately - the Collider article that just came out. Yeah — Lisa Coleman had that pink and white ‘64 Mercury. It was big. Real big. Wide like a dream and soft like a sigh. I did ride in it. I did borrow it. I might’ve left a couple dents. And yes — there was a night. Me in the back of that car with Vanity close. Dreams closer. But the car doesn’t matter. It could’ve been pink. It could’ve been white. It could’ve been nothing but moonlight and sweat. What mattered… was the moment. That slow realization in the dark that someone moves too fast —and maybe… so do you. The car became the metaphor. The color was never the point. But yeah, Lisa — thank you for the ride. And for the story that started everything.
And this new album is for the ones who ran fast… but didn’t get the roses. The album isn’t about cars. It’s about the race. The ones we lost. The ones we weren’t supposed to win. And the ones we ran anyway.
It's the story of all the men who tried and failed to catch the girl in the Little Red Corvette. Tracks: Two Cent Tootsie and Jack The Cat These tracks are about attitude. The kind you wear when the world says no, and you lace up your boots anyway.
“Jack The Cat” is a reincarnated cousin from every alley I ever danced down.
And “Tootsie”? She’s worth more than she knows. She knew how to swing a goodbye and make it feel like you missed something eternal. These two are attitude in motion. Fast talk, faster heartbeat.
“Jack The Cat” was a real one. Slippery. Proud. Untouchable.
Tracks: Concrete Rose, Peach Pie and Roseben
All three of these bloom in rough soil. “Concrete Rose” — that’s what I became when I realized love can crack pavement. “Peach Pie” was sweet, but she was deadly in heels.
And “Roseben”? That name’s still classified. But the moment it’s about… wasn’t.
Much Too Fast / The Knock Sideways These tracks tell the story of how the girl in Little Red Corvette got the car, and how she learned to park it sideways. These close it hard.
These are the tracks that wreck you.
“Much Too Fast” is what it feels like to get left on a perfect night. It's what love feels like when it scares you… and you drive it anyway.
And “Knock Sideways” — that one was for me. I wrote it after a fall. That’s the track where I let go of the wheel completely.
Little Red Corvette II isn’t a comeback. It’s a continuation. It’s what happens when the engine don’t turn over the same… but the ride still matters.
This isn’t just a sequel. It’s a love letter to everybody who ran hard… even when the gates weren’t fair, and the track was tilted against them.
To everyone who raced before me — and to those still riding dirty through love and memory… I see you.
And this is my new album The Jockeys That Went Before Me - the Sequel to Little Red Corvette.
