This week on New Release 1984 … solo artists Ashley, Derrick, and Drew gear up for a strange viewing experience. On one hand, you got Prince doing rad Prince things on stage … on the other, there’s Prince (and every other male character) modeling gross, toxic behavior toward women. We parse whether this “story” adds anything to the music, and if not, why bother? It’s also a great excuse for us to look back on our favorite movie soundtracks from the 80’s. Sound like your jam?
