Prince takes a break from isolation to grace the cover of the newly revamped Billboard magazine.

He chats with Billboard about one of his favorite topics, ownership over his music, especially his voice - he refuses to allow the reporter to record the interview. Here's an excerpt.

The famously reclusive pop star released his latest music video, Screwdriver, on Thursday, a lyric video featuring his rumored new backing band, 3rd Eye Girl.

Prince will receive Billboard's Icon award at the Billboard Music Awards on May 19 in Las Vegas.
