Prince records tribute to Freddie Gary and the people of Baltimore

Moved by the unrest in Baltimore, singer-songwriter Prince has recorded a song critical of the killing of young African-American men, a publicist for the artist said Thursday night.

The new record is a tribute to the people of Baltimore but will also address political and social issues throughout the country.

Prince's Paisley Park Studios has not yet announced a release date. (WTAE)

Say What:

    The people need to hear this one, so it better not just get locked away in the infamous vault.

    Prince is a lover, not a fighter.

    The Michael Jackson protester might have brought out his competitive side.

    He’s one of the most passionate artists of all time -- imagine the passion he’ll bring to a protest song.
