In the Papers: Passion Pit and Prince

Today's sterling Hotline column talks briefly about the new Passion Pit album, as well as Prince's new marketing move:

Prince on Target
In a match made in Minnesota heaven, Prince is teaming with Target retail stores to release a new three-disc set for the bargain price of $11.98 on March 29.

Prince’s new troika of albums will arrive with names as ridiculous as his former symbol name: “LOtUSFLOW3R,” “MPLSoUND” and “Elixer.” The latter is actually an album by someone named Bria Valente, which consumers will get as part of the package, like it or not. Word is Valente is the latest Prince protege, following in the uncertain footsteps of Apollonia, Vanity 6 and his ex-wife Mayte.
