Prince Announces Concert Series With Janelle Monae, Maceo Parker, Sheila E. & More!

Nah, you're not dreaming, no need to pinch yourself!... Prince just announced a series of shows dubbed "Welcome 2 America", which will feature The New Power Generation, Janelle Monae, Maceo Parker, Sheila E., Cassandra Wilson, Esperanza Spalding, Mint Condition, Lalah Hathaway and more. You didn't see THAT one coming! Stay tuned for more info, as Prince kept things pretty mysterious at his press conference in New York (see video below). All we can tell you is that the series will start in December 2010. Exciting!
