The Gold Experience is the seventeenth studio album by American recording artist Prince (his name at the time being an unpronounceable symbol). It was produced entirely by Prince and released on September 26, 1995 on NPG Records and Warner Bros. Records. The album charted at number 6 on the Billboard 200 and number 2 on the Top R&B Albums. The singles "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World", "I Hate U", and "Gold" charted on the Billboard Hot 100 at numbers 3, 12, and 88 respectively. -Wikipedia

    While Gold boasts some tunes, its inventiveness finishes behind its competence.

  • The Guardian

    Containing his only UK No1, “The Most Beautiful Girl In The World”, and the astonishing courtroom-based “Eye Hate U”, this lavish record deserves more love.

    The Gold Experience saw Prince at his funkiest, raunchiest, slyest and sexiest while delivering a collection of songs that easily match previous high points like Purple Rain and Sign ‘O’ The Times.
