The Versace Experience (Prelude 2 Gold) was a promotional cassette of previously unreleased material by Prince, then identified by his 'love symbol,' that was presented to attendees of the Versace collection of Paris Fashion Week in early July 1995. Used as a promotional tool for Prince's upcoming album, The Gold Experience, the cassette also contained tracks from other planned projects, including The New Power Generation's second album Exodus, Madhouse's third album 24 (which was never released), and The NPG Orchestra's Kamasutra.
