To mark the release of the album Prince also announced that he'd be holding a Q&A on Facebook. However, it took three hours before he answered the first and only question.
"TRUTH," began Facebook user Dee J FoGee. "Greetings my dear Brother, please address the importance of ALL music being tuned to 432hz sound frequencies??? Thanks in advance!!! Warmest regards, Emanuel..."
To which, Prince politely repsonded with 'The Gold Standard', heading up a link explaining why music is better at 432hz.
