Prince’s estate has been making countless headlines following the passing of the music icon in 2016, such as with JAY-Z famously calling out the late legend’s legal counsel on 444 for his disappointment in their handling of his estate, behavior he feels disrespects the Purple One’s intentions and follows a money-hungry agenda.
While the battle for control over his trove of unreleased music continues, Prince’s estate has announced the details for the second annual four-day Celebration gathering, to take place at the legendary Paisley Park in April.
